Suspension makes the biggest difference

Aero makes a difference if you’re already “fast”, and makes some corners and areas where there’s lift a bit safer

If you’re low 7s BTG, the aero would be noticeable (and you actually “hear it” in a 3RS) at SX, kesselchen, foxhole, sprunghugel and the subsequent S curves

However there is an element of… if you want that speed, maybe you should have started with a GT3 in the first place

Yes it does say full buckets actually… although I’m sure it didn’t earlier…., nevertheless.

Resale is only relevant when I want to sell it - which I don't at present. It will be worth what someone is willing to pay me for it when I do, that might be over list price or under it, but either way I will extracted the value from it in terms of enjoyment and ownership experience.

That's a beauty J. I like the stealth look.

This one awaiting collection at local OPC. Looks great in shark blue but I'm not convinced on the contrasting blue stripe set.

Surpassed my wildest expectations to be truthful. I've grown to really appreciate the compact feeling of the 718 platform compared to the 992. Having said that I'm really looking forward to the 992T I have coming soon with its simple traditional 911 ethos.

Thanks
I love the look of the bright coloured ones however prefer to own more stealthy coloured ones such as Black ,Silver or Crayon. Bright coloured ones stand out too much for my liking in the rural area I live in.

That blue stripe must be a mistake?

Still got my GT4 however my GT3 RS went back last October as a carrot to get another RS. I like the 4RS a lot more than I expected.

Fair play to you, guess it made sense to trade the 3 rs back.

Is it night and day compared to the standard GT4?
