    The British TV series Top Gear did a shoot out ..you can find it on the web. Jeremy Clarkson much preferred the CS. Track time was EXACTLY the same!!!!!! It was a great show!

    I have big hopes for the 997 GT3 RS. Mine is being built now and will arrive by the early January. The RS should be superior as it has 3 years of better technology. I love the CS and anxiously await the 430 version. The CS as a more serious track car is rather limited on some tracks by the gearing and the F1 transmission. I would be interested in tests of the 996 GT3 RS vs the CS. At least on my home track the 996 GT3 RS was much faster (3 seconds on a 1:45 laptime)

    The Porsche 997 GT3 is alot faster then a 360 CS around any track. I was VERY impressed by the car. The brakes are not of this world.

    But as Mr Clarkson in top gear sas when he compares the 996 GT3 RS vs the CS, if you wanna be astonished get the Ferrari.

    997 GT3 is a better, cheaper car with a sound that no porsche short of a CGT has, but still the CS is so much hotter, sounds alot better and looks so much better.
