I had the Ferrari itch for quite a while... but ownership costs are just silly, so I stay on the fence, and lucky for me I just completed a 3000 km road trip across Spain & Portugal with a friend in the 996 RS's Ferrari equivalent, a 360 Challenge Stradale, it was really great to scratch that itch.... but I wouldn't own one here in Australia, and for a number of reasons, the 996 RS is the better car IMO... its just that the saltry Italian is rather seductive! That sound is blissful 🥰 and no bad angles... she's very easy on the eyes! TwoHeadsTas, Joz, luzzo and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn they look sexy. What a crazy experience you had - very jealous. I must admit, if there were a time to try another car as focused as the 996RS, It would be this.

It's amazing how similar the overall feeling of them is... there are the obvious differences of course, and I'd be happy with either, but in summary: Head = Porsche One eye trouser snake = Ferrari on_booost, micknine01, GC9911 and 1 other 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

911 Posted 2February, 2023 Report Share Posted 2February, 2023 Are they at pre covid levels yet? Strange the GT3s are coming of heaps but some of the pricey air cooled stuff is still moving. Dutton's also sold that marone SC they had, which didn't really look spectacular. Yeatesy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugh Posted 5February, 2023 Report Share Posted 5February, 2023 In all honestly, I'd be pretty surprised if you'd get a straight swap for your 74S with a 996 GT3 CS - best of luck if you can though! Yeatesy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
