Thanks a lot ree. The figures appear to line up with Sport Auto's, this GT3RS is a few tenths quicker than the standard model to 200 km/h (13.5 vs 13.8) and it achieves the slalom .1 km/h faster. Upcoming Sport Auto test of the GT3RS is coming up, can't wait

Awesome, can't wait Bruce!

I would take noise in interior as a plus, rather than minus! You gotta feel the car!
