    Re: 991 GT3 RS

    Someone who decided to "facelift" the GT3 RS to a .2 with the new rear lights...OR it is a 991.2 Carrera with all the RS body kit added? Judging by the parking sensors, this might tell us that it is a Carrera since I don't think that is an option on the RS? Wheels look small also Smiley

    It's not an RS unless the owners decided to retro-fit a kit that doesn't have center-lock wheels for some reason.

    That' a weird case. 

    The rear fender intake is not easily retrofittable, and the centre exhaust outlet is not really a thing for Turbo's either

    Wow. Can't imagine spending that kind of money to make a 996 looks like a 991 GT3 RS. Hell, I don't even know how it's possible.

    Re: 991 GT3 RS

    I have a feeling that for some it'd be cheaper to make the conversion than to get a new one. A local friend converted a 996 GT3 to a 997 GT3 RS. I asked him why....he's a body shop owner so it was easy and cheap for him to make the conversion he said. :(

    Re: 991 GT3 RS

    I can certainly understand the Andorra car, it only takes 10 seconds to go from one end of the country to the other side, so the RS won't be going fast enough for the missing wing to matter.

    But that Poland car.......................

    Maybe Polish people only uses 1st gear?

    These people think the car is incognito now??  I suppose it might be to those who think all 911s look the same.

    I love the looks of the wingles RS, but would never ever ever dare remove it if it were me.
    The ramifications in case of an accident can be so severe... wouldn't want to deal with that.

    yes...the car looks good without the wing.

    maybe Porsche could offer a road version, wingless with active aero and the track version with the wings.....

    Not quite ten minutes. The biggest hinderance is there is no straight longer than a soccer pitch.  Top speed maybe 120. Plus everyone knows who you are.
