Hey In 2028 these become a lot less complicated to import. Start saving now and it may be possible.

I honestly didn't know the RS was a thing for the 996.

I'd still rather have the genus of the GT3s though (also never sold in the US). No 911 before or since has looked as sexy as the 996.1 GT3!

Same here - I had no idea that there was a 996.1 GT3-RS. Looked cool as hell. Also same here - 996.1 was and is a great looking 911. To me every version since then has lost a little something, kind of like the air cooled cars got a little odd looking after the first impact bumper cars....
