The 997.1RS is a keeper 911. Rising prices have already indicated this.

CGT on the other hand is a whole other animal. It too is going to be a great collector Porsche. A true keeper. The engine is what makes the car stand out amongst other super cars.

I desire a CGT, but im not about to give up my RS for it. I just couldnt let it go. It is a great 911. One of greatest of all time.

You need to find a way to have both and if you got the cash for a CGT then you got the abilty to park a 100k RS..

The RS is just too special to part with.

Park it for 15 years and get back to me

I think one of the most fundamental differences between the 997.1 GT3 RS and the CGT (among the obvious) is that the 997.1 GT3 RS will never require a $35k service like the CGT will.

For many CGT owners, that's not an issue. But, it's still a blatant difference between the two cars.
