    Hi

    And the big Ass:)But for the price; it's a joke

    Re: USA 997 GT3RS

    I agree. If that's true, then it's not worth it. To me atleast.

    Re: USA 997 GT3RS

    I figured that much.

    Re: USA 997 GT3RS

    lol so the difference between the RS and GT3 is... RS gets a wider ass, a carbon wing, fancy color and body decals? lol
    don't tell me it comes with a sunroof too~ lol

    It will get more power. At least unofficially.

    Re: USA 997 GT3RS

    I don't like the way the US GT3RS is looking

    The suspension geometry is different on the RS. And the rumors indicate that ALL GT3 (and RS) for the US will have a sunroof with no option to delete

    Re: USA 997 GT3RS

    According to the July order guide the RS will NOT have a sunroof in the US or anywhere else for that matter.

    I hope that's true, but I don't think your information is conclusion (from what you wrote).

    Imagine a scenario where the GT3RS cannot have a sunroof in the RoW, but HAS to have a sunroof in the US (the rumor).

    In this case, there would be no option in the order guide (cannot be ordered in RoW and cannot be deleted in US), right?

    Re: USA 997 GT3RS

    Sorry, don't follow you Grant. What I am talking about is that the order guide states that the standard sunroof for the US is ONLY applicable to the GT3. There is no ambiguity there. I will leave the door open to Porsche changing the order guide though.

    Re: USA 997 GT3RS

    i still don't get it... why did porsche even fitted a sunroof to GT3?

    (Feb 28, 2005)
    A sunroof delete option for the 997 Coupe series will not be available for the life span of the vehicle.
    Federal occupant crash regulations for sunroof versus nonsunroof vehicles and the resultant engineering expense to meet those regulations make this option financially non-viable, for the small number of vehicles configured.


    The GT3 seems to fall under this statement.

    The RS is a big question... hole or no hole

    Interesting! I hope you're right
