Don’t get me wrong; this car still doesn’t make any sense to me. And I prefer the “normal” GT3 to this one. But it does look better in person.

My next stretch allocation would be a GT2RS, don’t know that I’d try to get in line for the GT3RS.

I do —but I would say it’s too extreme for me.
What I respect though is that the aero bits and pieces are functional. There’s real downforce here. Real thought about airflow. This trumps the lame aero kit that goes on the 992s or the jury rigged up aero bits one can put on the M2. Function matters and I get at speed (as is proven in head to head runs against far faster cars) that aero is doing real work. That it is completely stupid for street legal use, yes. But at the same time, if you don’t want to tow your track day car and want to drive it to the track, why not?

I passed a newer 911 on the road the other day....
It took me a second to realize what I was looking at. The rear spoiler was up and... it looked UGLY.. very cheaply done. Almost looked like the panel was falling off the car. I get it that you don't see that area of the car when you are driving it yourself, but... still just looks like a bit of a loose end on the design....
