GT2RS or GT3RS ? Video.
Discussion
I find his style a tad irritating if I am honest...but would be the 3RS for me. Just prefer the power delivery and sound of a naturally aspirated engine....especially as it is such a rare pleasure these days !
Don’t really understand the pricing of 2 RS’s either. When you think it’s about the same price list as a Speedster I don’t understand why it’s a £50k premium when the Speedster is made in much lower numbers and an almost unique car being the only one with a GT engine. Suspect if the Speedster was launched when 2 RS was and vice versa the Speedster would be the one with the premium.

If proper blokes are watching that drivel you want your head shaking.
pmsl... i really do not take much notice of whoever is presenting i just look at the cars.s and goes on like an old wet Fanny.If proper blokes are watching that drivel you want your head shaking.
s didn't click on the link but if we are talking 991 I would want the 2 RS, if 997 then the 3 RS (Gen 2, 3.8 would do nicely). Not sure why, but somehow the 991 3 RS does not have the same "want" factor as the older ones - I suspect it is because if I don't have the option of a manual anyway, then I'd rather be in a Speciale, Performante, 600LT etc.
On the comment of value of Speedster vs 2RS, I actually think the latter might have a bit more engineering to it which could justify the premium over the Speedster in the current market. I I know the Speedster required special parts too. But after two years of ownership of the 2RS, each time I drive it, I marvel at how special this car is and there is a always a little something I notice.
As for 2RS vs. 3RS I own both (.2 and “.3”) and I hope I can keep them both and never have to make a choice to keep one over another. They are both exceptional cars with their own strengths. But the more I drive them and compares them, the more I realise they are hugely different propositions and experiences. I’d say the 3RS makes one with you from the moment you sit in it with a feeling of harmony; whereas the 2RS is a monster which needs to be tamed but the experience of which is unreal. I love them!
