    Re: Any GT3RS owners??

    Remember though even though the RS tires are really wide in the back, the engine and weight is still back there also. So the RS driving experience is different and having the weight over the rear tires the way the RS is is also different. Your Noble is 50/50 right?

    Re: Any GT3RS owners??

    go for an RS and install the europipe exhaust system!!or install a straight pipe!!!

    Re: Any GT3RS owners??

    Just when I made up my mind, you guys try to persuade me otherwise!!!

    I'm gonna be selling my current car, so the P's goin to be my only transport. I spoke to a salesman at the PC and even he said I should go for the standard GT3 (normally they will just try and persuade you to get the more expensive car)... I LOVE the RS. Seriously. But at the moment I'm more or less going 50%GT3; 30%RS;20%CarreraS with aerokit+PSE.(I know, I know, the wing is crap).

    Yo Homie!!
    Yes, I'll be tracking the car quite often. I know, the RS is deadly around a track!! I saw a test where it lapped Brands hatch about 2 full seconds faster than a Gallardo. The M400 still ate it alive though. (i can see Mike smiling ).

    Bazza, how would you rate this car as everyday transport?
    During winter, changing the tires etc...
    I'm still going for the GT3, but just for interest sake...Maybe you guys can change my mind!

    Damn.. Those times are actually disapointing. A CLS5 beats it??!! What the hell??!! I'm guessing the Carrera S would have been faster also if the track was not wet...

    Hey Pranqster.. welcome to the team...

    I dont have a Noble, you must be confusing me with his greatness Mike S ... He has one, as well as a 997, and a SL65, and a Cayenne, and a mini, and a Toureg, and a X5, and a Lear Jet, and a appartment on the moon ...

    I know the RS is like no other car on the road. It really is extreme!!

    Re: Any GT3RS owners??

    BTW.. are you happy with your GT3???

    Re: Any GT3RS owners??

    if i am in SA i will go for the gt3 rs and get another cheap car for everyday use.996gt3 is not a good looking car to me personly , i rather go for 997 c2s ,they said the 997 c2s can lap the 996 gt3 if on a dry track.

    Re: Any GT3RS owners??

    so on 996 i will only chose c4s ,turbo or gt3 rs(if my wife not driving it). but if i got for the 997 then i rather get a approved used ferrari 360 or lambo then bring it to SA sale it and get a gt3 rs then my wife will drive somehting like 4x4 ! hehe

    The GT3 does look kinda boring next to a RS...
    A CS with aerokit looks better IMO(mainly the front)
    CANT WAIT FOR 997 GT3/RS TO ARRIVE!!!

    Re: Any GT3RS owners??

    anyway ! what is your driving style!?do u like driving it sideway!?

    Re: Any GT3RS owners??

    Those guys are nuts!! really nice the video, the quality isn't that good, but the sound is amazing!!

    That stradale sounds insane in the tunnels, the diablo donuts in the middle of the street, also amazing

    I love the sound of the stradale!!!!

    BC997, I'll go for the GT3 , installing a sport exhaust (europipe, or straight pipes), and then!!!!!....install the RS wing, so like this you save some money, and as I didn't realised I thought you where having a second car, but if this is NOT your case, I think the GT3 is the perfect with the RS wing,

    BTW guys

    In one hour heading directly to the mini dealer!!!!!!

    The cooper S is waiiiiiiiiting!!!!!!!

    Of course i like looking out of the side window while driving But theres a time &place for everything...
    I'll only drive like that when its safe, etc. Not with my car though... The GTi's no exactly built for powerslides.
    Maybe with my dads 545 or one of our racing cars...

    How about you??

    Re: Any GT3RS owners??

    Waiting for word on the mini Alex!!!

    Man I love ittt!!!!!!

    BTW any news on the GT3???

    cHECK the sportscar thread

    Re: Any GT3RS owners??

    BC997J mate! how about noble m400 vs gt3 rs which one is faster on track!?

    Re: Any GT3RS owners??

    The Noble's faster on track...
    Quite a bit, actaully. From almost all the track tests I've read, the Noble is consistantly faster.
    I'll take the RS over the M400 anyday, but that car really is fast...

    Re: Any GT3RS owners??

    Dont think the Noble can compete with safety...
    The RS is, well, a Porsche and they wont skimp on that ...And its got a roll-cage...

    Re: Any GT3RS owners??

    guys ! it was my lucky day yesterday !? and i will get a few months driving holiday.

    got busted on motorway even with my road angel on bleeping , but too late! when the officer scan my speed was about 108mph .

    but i should say lucky cause i was doing 150mph early on !hehehe

    Re: Any GT3RS owners??

    Lucky....
    If you were caught doing 150 you would have been in jail right now. Hehe.


    Damn guys, I was in a accident this morning. Nothing big. Was driving our VW that we use to cart things around with. The bumper is smashed but thats about it.

    Re: Any GT3RS owners??
