997.1 GT3 vs 997.1 GT3RS?? in market for one

did a search on forum and internet couldn't find info.

What are the difference between the "reg" gt3 and the gt3 rs ?

where does it make a difference? worth the price difference? weight? suspension tuning? ect???

RS has wider rear end, light-weight fly wheel (LWFW), 2-piece lower rear control arms (like RSR), no sunroof, yellow stripe on steering wheel and special paint colors (orange, green, etc.). Price difference is around 30-40K more for RS. Best value is regular GT3. If price is not an issue and want to track, get RS. Stock to stock, difference is barely noticeable (i.e. RS will rev faster due to LWFW). Once you start modding RS will shine.

Only the rear wheels are different in offset.

Despite the different rear offsets the wheel dimensions and tire sizes are the same.
For me the two big differences are the LWFW and no sunroof for the RS.
