How could you call it perfection, it doesn't wear a BMW badge.

I guess it is legit. I saw the Porsche fb page post a video on it.

Over here it will cost £10k more than the M3 GTS. I'd take it. What a beast!

Harsh

, take the comment as a bit of a humorous dig that was all in joke. We all have our favourites but we can all appreciate outstanding engineering, even if from a competitor.

I see a guy driving a GT3RS almost every day (including bad weather). Bright blue with red graphics. So SWEET!

GT3 RS4.0 vs M3GTS

Power : 500hp (8,250rpm) vs 450hp (8,300rpm)
Torque : 460Nm (5,750rpm) vs 440Nm (3,750rpm)
Weight (EC) : 1435kg vs 1605kg
Performance :
0-100km/h : 3.9s vs 4.4s
0-160km/h : 7.9s vs ??.?s
0-200km/h : 11.9s vs 13.1s

At £10K more for the Porsche it's a no-brainer in my opinion. Much more performance and superior image, all packaged in a sexier shape.

P.S.
If I were in the market for such a car I think I would pick this over all the Italian exotics as well as the R8GT.

They're both VAG so he's not exactly Benedict Arnold.

To walk into the garage and see....

The USA site would not allow a build???

Hula hula. Post one in RED.

edit, German version only allows white build. Where did you configure the black one?

footie · 04-28-2011, 10:15 AM

Only one car at present would win my affections over this and it would be the Lamborghini Aventador.

But then again it is £201K.

ragingclue · 04-28-2011, 10:49 AM

Holy shit that RS in black is nice.

lve2xlr8 · 04-28-2011, 01:01 PM

+1 even considering the price difference and totally different type of car!
