Brumos is getting three of them, total, but they ordered all three with black tops. Smart move, since even Porsche has no photos with the red top

up.

50% chance of buying an RS60, but not the Tiptronic version. I like it, but I feel detached to the car without manual transmission. You know what I mean? Oh, and the top is black, not red. This car is amazing though, especially with all of the options.

So, I'm driving the RS60 on the 405 freeway yesterday an I see a car ahead of me make a sudden lane change. Before I could react, WHAM!!!! A piece of metal that was flying through the air hit the front bumper and hood of the car.

I think I'm going to be sick... The paint was scratched and so is the hood, nothing major, but the dealer will be making a claim to my insurance. Ugh... What are the chances?... It was fun while it lasted. Anyway, I returned the RS60 today and got my car back after $540 worth of work to fix the stupid internal temp sensor and movement detector. Fortunately, I recently bought the extended 3 year warranty. Crazy weekend...

That's great luck, I wish all Porsche loaners where Porsches.

But I have to disagree with the title of this thread, because this is the best rental car ever!

I may have to disagree with this. $25,000/day and you can't even drive it?!?

Smart cabriolet? oh man, I don't think there is another car that can even come close to touching that thing on the track!
