Personally based on the colors alone is go for gt3 non RS but it's all personal taste I guess and the RS is pretty special .
That won't hang around long at 911v

[LaurasOtherHalf]

Aye but you're talking to the man who's 911s have been speed yellow & orange!

I guess customers might think you're as bit of a tt if your car has orange wheels mind you....

[raptor600]

RS no questions asked!!!

[Gibbo205]

Apart from the wide body, what are the differences between GT3 and RS models?

[LaurasOtherHalf]

Widebody, plastic rear window, bigger aero wing, not sure on much else?

[oola]

If they both stack up, the RS is a better purchase.

[mrdemon]

Flywheel ?

[mollytherocker]

You are making a huge assumption that both cars are of the same quality and in similar condition.

I would bet a fair amount that they arent.

In this instance I would go for the GT3 over the RS based on the dealer and description.

That said, 'nasty skeletons' in the cupboard is tautology....

Boring silver ?? Please and with 911V you need to spend more for a warranty. Prices from 58K

RS all the way !

I am speaking as a man WITH an RS

[LaurasOtherHalf]

Well I haven't got a clue what tautology means, but like it or lump it 997.1RS' are low £60's.

997.1 gt3's are mid £50's.

So I think it's a very tough question

[woppum]

Amazing they got so close.

So now is the time to decide

GT3 unless you track very often IMO.

I'd feel an idiot getting out of that particular RS, but the standard GT3 is comparatively classy for something with a bloody great wing on the back.

That particular car at 911V looks very nicely specced.

Henry, could we have a list of desirable professions for prospective sellers?

Good:
Doctor
Surgeon
etc.

Bad:
Chimney sweep (esp. w/ sand beige)
Sewage plant pipe clearing diver
etc.

I'm joking - looks a lovely car. I'd go standard GT3 between these two.

I'd go for the RS plus a wrap and a wheel refurb.

I don't really see the point of a GT3 when compared t an RS

A good point & probably why a lot of people hunt out the silver & white RS'.

It's honestly not something I'd ever have considered, but if you were driving the car day in day out, the RS "safety" colours may grate after a while.
