    looks like a jagermeister

    very nice but I prefer the white and blue of the old one.

    plus I agree that the weight loss should be greater to make it an rs

    Im actually quite disappointed with the specs of this car, looks wise it looks delicious. But is it just me or is Porsche being uber-lazy in the performance figures dept? The F430 produces 490bhp, and the CS will have even more. Getting rid of 20kg will do what? If a slightly portly person gets in compared to a slim dude, then that weight loss is nullified. Common Porsche, Im sure it will handle well, but the general public usually are impressed by figures-on-paper.

    The old RS had no trouble keeping up with the 360CS or 430 for that matter....what made you think this will do less than that one, with even more power....

    Well if the rumours about the F430 CS turn out to be true the power deficit of the Porsche would strech to over 100bhp, also bear in mind that the Ferrari now has a 700cc advantage over the 911, and that they'll probably weight about the same. 1375kg is hardly a lightweight.

    ^ Thanks. Even in the last gen, the 360CS managed to shave of more weight and gain more power than the old RS. With the new one only losing 20kg, its going to have its work cut out.

    Nice Porsche
    Sorry if I cannot express myself correctly, but I don't know English as good as I want, so my answers will probably be the same in many cases.

    That's Porsche tradition for their RS models.

    It says 'Carrera' on the side there. That's the tradition. This GT3 RS is more along the lines of ricer tradition.
    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    In fact the real racer Porsches were the Carrera cars, but that all changed with the 3.2 Carrera of the 80's, so now it's difficult to talk about tradition concerning the Carrera name.

    I for one love the looks, the colours, and the graphics. If I could own a Porsche it would be the GT3, hands down.
