GT3 of course. With the big spoiler. For maximum w****r points!

I would buy the GTS, just because it'll be much more comfortable for everyday driving than the GT3. Of course I want the GT3 more, though.

from new, I'd get a GT3 if I can get at sticker price.
from 2nd hand, I'd get a different car with a 9000rpm red line, called the Italia. I can't believe they are selling for the same price 2nd hand where I live. But again I guess Porsches are built to take on more mileage.

A GTS... I wouldn't bother. It's just not rare nor special enough. At least the gt3 has a unique engine.

I think the 991 GT3 is faster by a small margin. Altough the track performance was even, it won the straight line consistently.

What’s the point in comparing a 991 to a 991.2 of different trims?
