I must admit you lost me on this one... I get that the GT3 is a very special car (I'd certainly have one if I could afford it!), and that the GTS is a slightly hotter Carrera. But I don't understand why you advise that it has a cost of ownership far higher than a GT3. The GT3s cost substantially more - are you factoring in depreciation maybe?
In my case, I would only be able to buy used; I did a quick search online and found some 2011-2012 models of both cars on sale with roughly the same miles, and the GT3s run about $50k more. Am I missing something?
