I tend to think 95% of RS owners that do sell will trade up for a .2 RS. No matter how awesome the .2 GT3 is, all that means is the .2 RS will just be that much better. And they know it.

Just to help the discussion, the driver is the guy that made the 7:00 lap on the 991.2 gt3. This RS has been Manthey'd, don't know if it has suspension (KW), tires aren't new, there is a passenger, not a flying lap and loses 3 seconds at the end, all in all, a high 6:50 BTG time, + 20 seconds for the full lap.

Only getting rid of the RS for an RS.
I paid 35 over for my car and I haven't spent any time thinking or worrying about what that means for me besides I own the best car I ever have and love driving it.
My entire day is spent doing cost/benefit analysis and making sure I'm getting the best value for every dollar my business spends. I do this at an obsessive level so I can have one or two hobbies in my life where I can throw all that analysis out the window.
Who can put a number on the enjoyment this car brings them? If I end up losing $50k to drive this car for 2 years then so be it. I'll do it again with the next one if I have to.
People wait and wait and wait for the right deal and the right time and everything else. I bought this car in September 2016 and couldn't imagine the last 7-8 months of my life without it, even to save all of what I paid over. I didn't get to where I am by waiting and waiting and waiting... life will pass you by.

Would never sell such a special car for a new GT3, even faster. I was in love with the look, the big but, big wing, special black parts here and there... If i sell it one day, it would be in several years for a .2 RS, if there is something interesting to upgrade, but for nothing else.
RS .1
any thoughts...? Peace, drive safe!!!
