I made a mistake and stopped by a Southern California Porsche dealer and test drove a 2011 GT3RS. Should not have done that! The car is simply incredible. The sound and the handling of the car is amazing. I had assumed it would be a hard ride but it definitely wasn't. I have a 2010 turbo which is amazing and isn't going anywhere, but my 2009 C4S with TechArt Aero kit may have to go. It definitely is easy to get addicted to these cars. The temptation! Anyone here got a 2010 or 2011 GT3RS that can talk me out of getting one!

 

I have a GT3 and you should just do it!!!!

You won't regret it.

 

That's what I'm afraid of! Really good to know! How long have you had it? Any other advice on it the car?

 

I actually have a GT3 and have had it about a year now.

I ordered my car and it came with very few options like sport bucket seats, steel brakes, dynamic engine mounts and front end lift.

The car is really good from the factory and I don't see much that needs to be done to it unless you track the car a lot. With the exception of doing the center exhaust bypass. I added the Sharkwerks bypass and it is really great sounding.

There are plenty of GT3's and RS's in dealers inventory so you might have to do some searching for the right optioned car for you.

Good luck with search.

 

Was this a white and red RS?

I say do it... I'm trying to myself

I test drove a GT3 too and was really impressed. I have noticed there are quite a few of both models around in Southern CA so I will take your advice and search for the right one. Really appreciate your input.

 

No, it was greyblack. I actually like the white but since my 2010 turbo is white I would want a different colour. You are thinking of getting one too? All Porsches are impressive to look at and the GT3RS is very special for sure.

 

doooo ittttt!!!!!! lol

 

Do it; TT will be faster but she'll never feel the same again ;-)

 

I am really leaning towards it. You are right, after driving the GT3RS, my 2010 turbo is definitely faster but the whole GT3RS drive was incredible. I think I may have to sacrafice my 2009 C4S. I really like the look of my C4S after adding the TechArt kit but the lure of a GT3RS is something else!

 

Thats why i don`t like to test drive... LOOOL

GOOD LUCK

 

That's a lesson I need to learn! It's the kiss of death taking one out for a drive. LOL. Especially when they took me out on a twisty mountain!

 

What color would you get?

 

I would get the one I test drove which was a grey/black with subtle white good metalic contrast. It's not an overpowering colour scheme. I like the Carrara white but my turbo is Carrara white.

 

I've got a 2011 with just shy of 3000miles on her now. The car, as you said, is nothing but amazing. I also have the luxury of some nice mountain areas near me to drive the car on, and again, it is nothing short of shocking on how the car drives. (And heck, its not bad at all on the local highway by any means). And, the "fun" is not even half there until you get the rpm's up into what can be descriped as a symphony of mechanical parts just working together so well.............ahhhh.........think I need to take up smoking so I can have a smoke because it was sure good for me!!
