Exclamation Final decision........... GT3RS

Help me choose! I know it's personal preferance! I have narrowed my purchase down to three cars:

2010 GT3RS: AQUA BLUE/RED, stock, a few miles $137,000.00, no track time

2008 GT3RS: ORANGE/BLACK, stock, 1000 miles $108,000.00, no track time

2007 GT3RS: SIGNAL GREEN/BLACK, modified 10,500 miles $104,000.00, a few track days, only quality aftermarket and maintenance, owned by enthusiast.


WHICH ONE WOULD YOU CHOOSE AND WHY? I will post pictures of my new car whichever it may be one week from this Monday! Thanks to everyone that has helped with this learning experience.

"i" decided not to get the SIGNAL GREEN/BLACK because it has motons that require gas pressure check monthly, rebuild maintenance, according to two shops in the area and aren't used in rs-cup cars either. well thats just my thought, if i am wrong from the knowledge i gathered this week from calling up shops about this car then sorry !

i have had 7 sets of motons CS on various of my cars. on all of them, i chk'ed monthly they never leaked or loss pressure. so i chk them once 6 months now.

rebuild? unless you are pro racing, i do about about 30 days a year, they need zero attention b/n rebuilds. rebuild every two years is more than plenty.

but it depends on use. laguna's car is a track monster. well done. but if you dont plan to track it often, its over kill.

You can get a 2010 GT3 for about $100k. Why get a 2007?

2008 Orange/black- I love pumpkins; and would send it to Sharkwerks for a 3.9 conversion, it would end up about the same price as the 2010 and IMHO a better car! My 2 cents is free the 3.9 will cost you!

I'm w/Mooty on this one. Had Moton CS on my 6GT3. If dialed in correctly, just set and forget.
P.S. Even though spring rate is higher than OEM, will still ride nicely on street.
Choice will boil down to how you plan on utilizing this car.

looks wise, the 2007/2008 is better than 2010. i have heard the 2010 is better driving wise. guess you can always remove some of the 2010's decals.

Do not hesitate. Take the 2010! You will not regret. The turn in is fantastic. It also pulls very strong. I am impressed over this car.

Aqua blue/Red is a killer combo! and new LEDs are nice too. IMO

I would get 997.2 GT3RS over 997.1 GT3RS even with $30k difference.

Signal Green and Black is pretty amazing. Looks like it belongs on the race track.
