Was your forum name picked by a random name generator?
No. I watched an Eddie Murphy film called "Coming to America" and found the name of the greasy haired guys band really funny. I am neither black or sexual. 
Great film!ETA- Randy Watson was the lead singer of the band sexual chocolate IIRC and Reverend Brown the MC?

Sorry, it was my fault, as I have watched the film possibly 30 times now, and one of my favourite parts is the bit where the MC says "put you're hands together for Mr Randy Watson" and hardly anyone claps.
Now have an 'in joke' in my household that if there's every anyone crap singing on stage, I say those immortal words...how very very sad I am.
Anyway, sorry to derail your thread. GTRS, serious car, and would love to own one for myself, but prices still seem very high....

Driven one and lusting for one, after driving the GT2rs around the Porsche experience track, RS4.0 felt slow in comparison....
GT2rs would make an epic euro hoon/track car....
RS4.0 is an epic track car.
I did the RS day at Silverstone which included the GT2RS, GT3 3.8 and GT3 4.0. I drove the GT2 RS first and then the GT3 3.8. Thought the 3.8 would feel slow but it didn't - I think the combination of shorter gearing and higher rev limit offsets the lower power. The 4.0 felt as fast as the GT2 RS to my back side. I also found that in the GT2RS I had to wait longer to get on the throttle so overall speed on the longer sections was comparable.GT2rs would make an epic euro hoon/track car....

I much preferred the noise of the NA engines. Throttle response in GT2RS was good though, I was expecting much more lag. Perhaps it would have been more impressive on a bigger circuit as I expect acceleration above 100mph would be where the biggest difference could be felt.
My favourite was the 4.0, but given cost difference I think the GT3 3.8 is 90% of the car for half the money of both the 4.0 and GT2RS.

I've got one. What do you want to know that hasn't been written by a tonne of journalists? mentalist fast, great tourer as well as trackday weapon, bugger all left in the UK now I think. You can see mine on youtube under "Auto Finesse vs Porsche 997 GT2 RS" when it was given an expensive wash ;-)
