I'd even take one over the 4.0RS, i think.

How many miles on the CSL? re tyres - i'd put new rubber on - SS.

If you had a GT3 RS and GT2 RS and then started to really hammer them out on track, you'd walk away wanting the '3'.

NA is always a more rewarding drive I think, and the rev range is somewhat limited on the 2.

There's faff all difference in the twisties (same car/chassis effectively) so at the end of the day you just pull away on straights because you can.

Frankly the price difference on the 2rs and 4.0RS between the "normal" gt3 rs is too much, you're paying for exclusivity rather than "more bits". Having said that, I think I'll be keeping mine until some day when perhaps it does indeed appreciate again. Last of the GT stick generation, its PDK from now on......

CSL has 57k miles on it. Having inspected the wheels/tyres I had, I've found that the tread is indeed lacking, however that's because they are cups lol, probably not that worn at all in hindsight.
