Default Updated opinion... GT3RS - mk1 or mk2?
In light of the recent CL recall and suggested maintenance, does that have an impact on which model to choose? I'm beginning to lean towards the mk1.

A .2 with a 5 bolt conversion is better, a .1 needs a sunroof delete.

Even with a CL system, the 2RS is considerably better.

Best,

Be careful with Mooty...He has a disease for which there is no known cure. I've only met him once, and for a brief period at that, but I am quite certain I have been exposed.

996 GT3 for raw driving feel like no other
997.1 RS for the orange / kermit crush
997.2 RS for laptimes

Hope I didn't scuttle mooty's deal in the making!
