Thanks Carlos for, yet, another great report . Reading your impressions after a year and already 22k km makes it the most relevant test kiss

Glad the car suits you like a glove . It must be the color indecision

Your description of driving in the twisties is exactly what I like when I take my RS through those corners . what a feeling blush

The GTS is also the car I would '' need' as a DD and somehow think I should secure one ( there is still one in white 4S on my dealer's floor with a big discount )  but at the same time , I can't justify having twice the same ( interior ) car ( my RS + GTS ) . Also my 997.2 still drives ok . 

Also happy for you that you get satisfaction out of the PDK . It is a great box .   Like you , for my next DD, when the time comes, it will be very hard to do the right choice . I am missing manual , but when I drive my 964 , after the excitement of the first hour or so, I find the whole package  way too ancient, mainly due to heavy steering, AWD, weight of the car . 

My brother , who likes manual too, races cars, but who also embraces new technologies, has a GT4 . He likes the manual, but in the city and surroundings , he would rather have a PDK ......

Never ending debate indecision

Gnil, you already have a GT3 RS, a GTS as a daily driver sounds great but I don't think it is a good idea.

I think the best choice is to have a GTS as a daily driver and something more exotic as a weekend fun car.

Before I chose the R8 V10 Plus, I was thinking about the next 991.2 GT3 or GT3 RS but with the same interior and the same "old" shape, I just was afraid this would bee too much 911 for me. Smiley

I love my GTS Cab though and it will stay with me. A Huracan would have been the perfect choice for me and I was also looking into a 650S Spider I got offered but in the end, the R8 was the best choice for me, financially and socially.

So if you get a GTS, you may want to replace your GT3 RS with a McLaren or Ferrari or whatever, only this makes sense in my opinion. Smiley

Or, if you can afford it, you can add a supercar and keep the RS. Smiley

in my book the only cars that the GT3RS makes sense replacing with are: F458S, M675LT and F12TdF. that is if you after after that 'connected' driving experience. all others (excluding hypercars of course) will leave you disappointed somewhere.
