BC997J,
I think you should rather go for the C2S as your first P-car.
A jump from a golf 4 to a GT3 RS is quite a huge one, especially for a 21 year old!
Good luck with your decision!

2nd. the Pirelli tires are NOT for driving in the wet - you have to at least get different ones for that circumstances. They might take away a bit of the impressive handling of the RS though.
3rd As Alex stated the bucket seats are very tricky to get out of and into. I am still in my 20ies as well and I wouldn't want to do this every day.

Thanx Stig but no worries. I've driven lots of fast cars already. From M3's/M5's to modified skylines to racing cars like sports 2000 and I've even drove a Wesbank V8 around killarney. My dads involved in motorsport so I'm quite privilaged to be able to spend alot of time around fast cars.
Then again, I know that a 911 handles differently from all other car on the road, so I'll HAVE to take it easy.
BTW... Any pics of you car???

Do you ever even drive that?? Not that it's a bad car, but I mean, you've got 2 Porsches, a Noble, a Merc, should I go on???
I'm not sure if you're married or not and I'm not going to ask for you're privacy, but if not:
I can just imagine, you meeting a girl in your Porsche/new F430 ... you guys talk a bit and you speak about your cars a bit, then make arrangements to meet for a date again.
She waits by her door expecting a million rand car and you show up in this.

Having delivery of my little beast on Wednesday/Thrusday of next week!!!!!
Mike that's hyper blue I believe, just as mine (but my roof is white colour), and mine comes with the 17" sport wheels!!, it comes fully equipped except the electric roof and some minor stuffs like the tinted windows(probably do that to her)...
Btw Mike, I've been discussing with my friend The Stig, about pre-installing at dealer the R90 wheels, but as the car already comes with the extra wheels 17" dunno what to do!!! , cost is 600euros, so that push off a bit , imagine....600euros for petrol!!
The cooper S is really special, some weeks ago test-drove one, with the R90 wheels, absolutely fully equipped, and the turbo sound is just present in the cabin, really impressive!!!!, though fuel consumption was 13.5liters per 100km
BCJ997 sorry for taking a bit off your topic!!, I still say what I said, you get the RS!!!!!!!, very special car!!!!!
Ferdie sending you a pm right now!!!

Ohh I forgot!
Any complains so far Mike, with the cooper S???
I am really interested!!!!
And hey it was really difficult to find a stock mini cooper S, went to 4 madrilian dealers, and last one I visited they had 2 in stock (dark silver with white roof, black leather xenon, chili package etc and another hyper blue with white roof, the same extras), delivery in here is 3 months more or less, and they can only deliver one mini cooper S per month (dealer words)...Only a very reduce discount in cooper S , besides he told me that for one's and cooper's the thing changes and a lot (lots in stock), but cooper S--> really rare!!!!
What's your fuel consumption!!!!, you really use the car!!!!
