Finally my 2019 GTR is here

My 2019 GTR is finally in my garage joining my 991.2 GT3 RS Lizard Green + WP.. Wow what a ride. Love the car, that angry exhaust growl is very satisfying. It is very different from my RS in almost every way..
AMG has done an awesome job. This is my first AMG in about 10 years. I've had SL500, E63 (NA) (several), SL55 etc, but took almost a 10 year break. time to get back in

RS is very nice in racing yellow, was my other choice. At the end settled on lizard green. Here it is.

I'm biased, but this is one of the best colors for the RS imo.

Is that the Euro GT2 seats in there? Gorgeous car btw. I love the LG exterior, but don’t care for the LG colored seats.

Note sure if these are Euro GT2 seats. They are CF buckets that come on GT2 RS and 918.

Nice tmemore. Looks like you have the Magnesium wheels also. Btw - here is my comparison between the GTR and RS. Would be interested to hear what you have to say also. As it would be for some others on here as well.

Overall a very accurate comparison.
Daily Drive: GTR is a better daily for me because my RS has buckets (comfortable but not for daily driving)..
Sound System: GTR hands down especially with optional Burmester.
Steering: RS feels like a go cart, GTR feels heavier with more understeer. RS wins here.
Exhaust: I like both for different reasons: GTR -- angry growl, RS -- racy high rev scream.. I have center delete exhaust on RS and it sounds amazing. I love AMG exhaust as well. It all depends on my mood. Both are awesome.
Transmission: PDK feels sharper, crisper..
Looks: Very subjective, but I do prefer the AMG.. GTR has menacing presence. Love it.. I think GTR beats RS in the looks dept.
Breaks: RS hands down. I have PCCB and the RS breaks are amazing and don't have any heat issues on track.

For me: mostly street and occasional track -- GTR, occasional street and mostly track -- RS.
