200K EUR for a slightly used 4.0
160K EUR for a new loaded BS

( 3.8 GT3 is at 140K EUR )

The BS is limited I dont think the GT3 will hold it price better than the BS. I also doubt that the GT3 is a better preformer.

I would say the GT3 RS, will hold its value and will out perform a C63 BS. Look at the CLK BS, I've seen a few for sale in the 60's already. 2008 GT3 RS's that I found are still going for over 100k.

Performance:
The C63 BS ran 7.46 at the ring.

The 997 GT3 RS ran 7.33

I love AMG, have owned 4 of them, and currently have two. That said.

Get the GT3 RS.

he's thinking the 1gen 997..... which still is at 100,000! 997 2nd gen about 130 -140.... around the same price for the bs i ordered.... but i think they would both lose between 10,000- 15,000 a year depending on km's and condition...

GT3RS in another class way above M3 and BS.......not even a decision.....

The limited means nothing if you follow what the value of the CLK BS is at. You can pick one up for the price of a mass produced M6 of the same year.

The GT3 is also a better performer.

The GT3 is the better performer in the hands of a better driver. Occasional drivers are very likely to have faster laps in a Black Series and I don't think the OP will ever be a "junkie". HPDE's are filled with P cars, many being passed by lesser cars up until you get to the red group. Showing up in a MB is always a novelty and a conversation starter!

I agree. The driver mod is the best one you can have. I was speaking with equally skilled drivers in both cars.

No question the BS is no slouch. It can hold its own against a BS. More so if you have a bad lap or the GT3 driver is not as experienced. Thats the beauty of racing! I would love to see a good 20 lap Sebring showdown between these two cars. Screw the laptimes. Lets see who crosses the finish first.

Depends on what you need it to do. The GT3 OWNS the track vs the BS. The BS is an absolute BEAST and would smack most any other car around the track, BUT vs the GT3..............

The BS would be king of the streets tho. IMO, the BS looks better and it definitely looks to be way more comfortable than the GT3.

Wow, that's a scary thought.

Look at the new value of a black series and see how much they sell for after a few years.

Performance side, there is no discussion about. Not to say steering feedback, driving pleasure.

In my perspective a 3800 lbs car is not a track car, even though it can handle the duty for a few laps.

I have a GT3RS and my main use is track, but I'm putting more and more street miles as the car is really street friendly, and really fun.
Yesterday night I went for a night drive with my dog.

BS is for sure an amazing looking car, but between both is a no brainer.
997.2GT3RS for sure.

I'll bring my recently purchased C63 to the track and see what it can do in stock form.
