$177K??????

wow that's GT2 territory. But I guess it may be a collector piece.
As far as performance, there are well modified 996 gt3'/gt3rs's that are quicker and cheaper.

Yes, very nice, but $177K is a bit too much. We're talking Cup car territory.

Hmm, same power as regular GT3... is it just cosmetically different?

When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something very important?
Well, it better be.
But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?
Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.

The main "RS" has the widebody- larger fenders and wider bumpers - like the Turbo does whereas the regular GT3 is considered a "narrow body" car. Same motor as the regular GT3. Maybe some other small differences, I just cant recall them.

Who bid $180k for it?



Jesus...Get an f430 for that price.





By the way, the gt3 rs loses 40 lbs over the regular gt3....


And you get cool colors.



I'm not sure what else they do to it if anything.
