Swap C4S for GT3?

When I ordered my C4S earlier this year I seriously considered a GT3, but decided the wing and nose were a bit ostentatious for driving around San Francisco. When I got the 4S I went to the track and got completely hooked and ended up getting upgraded suspension, + 30 hp engine mods, GT3 seats, harnesses, and R compound tires. The car rocks on the track, but I keep thinking about the GT3, and last night saw a grey GT3 driving in the city, and it looked awesome.

So here's the question for those of you who have 997 GT3s: Is the track performance enought of a quantum leap over a modded C4S to warrant seriously thinking about swapping out? I can get a build slot from my dealer if I want. Thanks!

put it this way... a moded C4S would be around 1min32-35seconds on Mosport (a local and ALMS track) a STOCK GT3 1min25-30 seconds... easy 5-10sec increase on this VERY FAST track

you should be asking yourself if you do have the driving skills to squeeze every last bit of the GT3 on a track... if you do have those driving skills, go for the GT3... if anyone is bound to enjoy the true sole of a GT3, it would be an accomplished driver...
