Now, if only we could get some real, non-speculative information on the new 991 GT3 RS...
Chartreuse 3.8 RS @ the dealer when new. I understand the car belongs to a Mexican gentleman. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvxfJG_FSmo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_OdIXk3hEE
Thank goodness, 7 weeks, March 5th, the 85th Geneva Salon can't come soon enough. Meanwhile, stay off the Rennlist 991 GT3 RS thread, 225 pages so far on a car not yet released , it is a model of off-topic discussion & pure speculation! Image Unavailable, Please Login
I see three, the Gooding auction car, this car http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/143653922-post2853.html, and this car in the video & below https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nE1HakTX1xM Image Unavailable, Please Login
I may or may not have previously posted this image of the PTS Signal Green 3.8 RS with Light Gold trim in the showroom with CGT before (I can't remember), but here it is. Fabulous livery. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Wish they would have done something more unique with the design of the air intake on rear fenders. They dont flow well with the front fenders IMO.
Beautiful image @ Silverstone racetrack in the UK which just about sums up this thread - 3.6, 3.8 & 4.0 RS in evidence, all 3 in original launch livery! Image Unavailable, Please Login
Graphics really can almost completely make the car... Graphic delete in most Porsche situations is a bad move IMO. Porsche for the most part owns the great graphic designs. Without, many of their cars look incomplete. Take the 3.8 RS for example...
the registry only shows two US signal green cars...the Gooding car (3471) and 3249, the one with gold trim, delivered to Carlsbad CA... do you know the VIN of the third car (presumably the one in that video)? US car and the registry is incomplete, or...?
I agree although I see radrickroth's point...those graphics packages go from being an easy "spotter's guide" to iconic visual representations of that particular model. still, I like yours better than ones with graphics
if you know who the credible posters are on that thread, there's some good information to glean; but yes, for the most part it's page after page of fanboi nonsense.
the action estimates DON'T include buyers premium. Joe will know better than I, but in most cases the buyer pays 10% (+ Taxes etc) at an auction. If this car sells for $325 (which I bet it will) the buyer will have paid $355k before sales taxes
I am sure it will also look good in any color, and I can bet that the Porsche Ag Historic color palette will be consulted. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
