Good luck getting one though, the dealers all hold them for their 'preferred' customers who just flip them on ebay. I've tried to buy a GT3 RS from Reeve's several times and the guy gives me the oh they're all allocated but I'll try to find one and never even gives a call back.

Fortunately I gave up wanting one before finding one after talking to some instructors at the Porsche Experience who have driven them on track. Basically you're paying an extra $45k for a bunch of stuff that makes no significant difference in the car's track abilities other than being able to brag to the other guys in the pits about how light your clutch is and how the roll cage came from the factory.

+1 subtle and smooth.

i agree pdisme, 45k would yield a very fast GT3. TBH i dont think I'd ever REALLY track it that much, i think a nice fully loaded alpine white GT2 with red leather/carbon interior, tubi stainless exhaust and some BBS LM2's would set me up just fine.

That puts you into the $190K bracket easy. The GT2 is also a much different car than the GT3, built with a different purpose in mind. I'd just wait to see if Porsche decides to bring out the GT2 RS...

I don't mind the graphics so much, although the orange/red is pretty bright. I like the white w/gold. I think the white or the dark gray would look good with bright green graphics.

I really liked the classiness (for graphics atleast) that the previous gt3rs had, but I suppose I could live with it. I'd probably try to order one with the graphics not on the car yet and keep them off until I had to sell it eventually.

Well, I can't afford one but just saying
