    This was a very low mile car in a private collection. Pretty much in great shape needed a clean up/polish and some Swissvax treatment.

    (sorry in advance for the bad pictures.)

    Brief info on this beast Porsche 997 GT3 RS

    The first, and highly anticipated, 911 is the upcoming GT3 RS -- which will make an appearance worldwide. The GT3 RS uses the wider rear fenders of the Carrera 4, a wider rear track, a more aggressive rear wing, and a modified front spoiler lip. The RS will be offered in the same 1970s colours that made the 1973 Carrera RS famous, as evidenced by the bright orange and green roll bars in test mules as well as the edges where their black peelcoats are shrinking. The new GT3 RS will lose weight compared to the standard 997 GT3 with items like a carbon-fiber wingtop, the extensive use of composite bodywork, and lightweight glass. It will homologate several changes for the upcoming 2007 GT3 RSR race car, possibly including a 3.8-liter flat six instead of the 3.6-liter, 415-hp unit in the new GT3.

    unbelievable..i love the gt3rs. love all the special bits..only thing is it is significantly slower than a 911 turbo in power..but it can do circles around a 911 turbo ob a track..it is like 3mph faster through the slalom than the turbo..but the power from the turbo is too much to pass up for me..the thing that sucks about the 911 is they used to be about 20k cheaper than they are today..i could get a 911 turbo loaded for like 140-145k..the 996 was 120-130 loaded. dammit i LOVE Porsche
