    Still waiting for my 488 spider, but in the meantime. I just picked this up on the weekend, 2016 GT3 RS.

    It's a VERY fun car to drive. I'd encourage anyone to take it out for a spin.

    It doesn't have a v8 but does it ever SCREAM.

    The black rims really go well with that colour. Great looking car that won't go un-noticed when parked in front of One for brunch on the weekend. Congrats.

    Ive actually never heard the 488 engine. I'd say it screams more than the 12c i had.

    I have an RS too, but its not near as quick as my 488. Note: I am not talking about on the track. I don't track my cars.

    BTW I think the 488 sounds great.

    RS sounds great too but it's a much different car.

    Is the RS that good?

    Would you consider selling the Speciale and getting an RS?

    I've not driven the RS, and own a Speciale now but honestly havent fallen in love with it.

    I have an RS and it's a very different car than my 458 or now my 488. It's louder and grittier than a Ferrari. I have not driven a special.
