To daily drive it? Considering you got it instead of an M4 is puzzling to say the least.

Cool story.

Congrats, the RS's are something special and the blue/gold combo is the nuts. They seem to go up in price monthly at the moment. Although a big price jump from a M4, it's a better place to put (did not say invest) your money. I can't imagine daily driving one for long however. Post up pics!

Poofyo101 · 06-21-2014, 07:30 PM

Not a DD. Will post pics soon

gthal · 06-21-2014, 07:51 PM

I've spent time at the track in a 997 GT3 RS and it is a freaking beast. It would be next to impossible to live with for a DD but as a weekend fun/track car they are on a completely different level from anything BMW makes today.

dawgdog · 06-21-2014, 08:22 PM

I went from a heavily modified e92M3 to a .2GT3RS. Now I am getting an f80 M3 as a daily fun car. The RS is so much fun but you can barely hear the sound system and though I have driven it daily to learn the car, it gets old. But lots of fun on the track and to take out to play with. Love the blue RS! Congratulations.

Will probably get into an M4 next year or once competition package is released. I remember you selling me the akra exhaust years ago!

Thank you thank you.
Have an SUV and an e46 M3 also so will continue to use them as DD until the M4 bug hits me again.

Looks like you have silver wheels which is what my white/gold RS was specked with. Just love the blue RS! Nice you don't have ceramics as you end up replacing them with steel anyway. Slippery slope because next comes bar/harness, guards diff, rubber out of the suspension and so on. But immensely fun just as is.

E92LNGCGY · 06-22-2014, 02:32 PM

Congrats beautiful car. I am also looking for a RS as a toy but hard to find a nice clean example.

tomwac · 06-22-2014, 04:15 PM

Wow...a dream toy

Is the stickering OEM? The GT3RS on the rear fender is a bit too much imo and I've never seen it before here... But the car looks awesome... Very jealous, congrats and enjoy it !

When you are lapping EVERYTHING else on the track, you tend to ignore the badging on the car
