i posted earlier that the GT series cars are more enthusiast oriented. *points at several earlier posts*


the GT2 is a bit of blur for me, but definitely the GT3 and its RS version are awesome and raw road cars.

I thought ///M stood for Marketing? ///M cars need to go on a diet before being taken seriously.

Their design isn't getting old; Porsche simply preserves a larger part of their heritage aesthetically compared to others. If you look at the silhouette of any Porsche, you'll know it's a Porsche.

The 911 is ALWAYS going to look like a 911. Porsche has made plenty of designs over the years that were completely new, like the 914, 924/944, 928, Boxster/Cayman, Cayenne, Panamera, Carrera GT, etc etc.

The 911 in any other shape, would not be a 911..

The GT2 RS is an absolute monster. If I won the lottery and wanted a killer track car, but not a 100% race car, the GT2 RS would be the one.

Agreed! If I won a decent amount of money, I'd be waiting at the dealer when they opened the next morning. The GT2 is pure sex. It doesn't scream at you like a lambo, and that's the point. It's one of the nicest cars to look at, period.
