Sounds incredible! Any comparison to other cars like the previous gen GT3, a Noble M400 or maybe an Exige in steering/chassis feel? I would be very interested to hear the opinion from someone that has had a chance to drive any of these back to back.

Obviously it is stiff but certainly not jarring.The handling and road feel is unbelievable. The clutch is a little stiff but certainly livable.The seats are quite comfortable and my wife who hates cars unless it's a Mercedes didn't ***** once when I took her for a ride.After seeing the tred on the tires it would not be a good idea to get caught in the rain.Considering buying extra set of wheels and tires so if I get caught in the rain I won't kill myself.Looking forward to putting some mileage on it.This is one of the best drivers cars I have ever owned . Had an 05 GT3 and that was my favorite car of all time. Let you know after more use how it compares.

Just saw this post and it's great to hear. I am glad your enjoying the the RS, it's like no other. I got a chance to take your turbo out and it really is a beautiful car. It really looks as good as you described and it's an absolute blast to drive. I drove one of our GT3's and to me for that driver feel nothing else compares. As amazing as the turbo is, the GT3 is in a league of it's own in terms of feel to drive and it definatly has the power delivery. We will touch base when your back in town, enjoy the rest of your break and of course the car! Once again congrats and it was a pleasure doing dusiness.
