Haha! That's the only way you can park between 2 large pick up trucks and sleep well at night!

i keep saying that and no one wants to listen ;-)
what's the difference b/n RS and GT3
"RS" the decal
is it worth the difference. YES
what is the REAL difference? dont look at spec.
disassemble the cars. you will then see.
many things are released on paper
just when i had my 4.0 and 3.8 on rack.... man, they are way different.

love your car! Glad to see you got a driver and not a museum piece. Would love to own one day, 997.2 RS is the sweet spot for GT3 styling IMO.

Congrats man, that's an awesome first drive. The driving experience does not get any better than a 997rs.

My blue/red .2 RS was my favorite car I've ever owned. My wife told me not to sell it. I listen to my wife now. True story.

Congrats ilko! I bet you're right about the RS being noticeably different from the regular GT3, but for most (not people who DE regularly) the difference will be negligible.

The RS LWFW & LSD alone made a huge difference on my car in terms of performance. The car feels more raw, accelerates better due to LWFW and can put down power much easier and lean on the brakes more due to LSD

Congrats and beautiful car. Your garage has nice similarities to mine with the gray 7.2 RS and an E55. Enjoy the car!

Did you install the harmonic damper when you went LWFW? I'm wondering if that's a necessary step with base Gt3 when going that route.
