it's probably just a photoshop job, but very nice nonetheless

Man, I was looking at a Guards Red / Black interior GT3 at the local dealer while waiting for my car and that is one hell of a vehicle! Someone had ordered it but then decided that it was too expensive ???

It had the standard stock items with turbo brakes, embossed leather sport seats, Red 3 - point seatbelts, Aluminum guages and trim for $104,500.00! If I could have, that baby would be mine.

I left that place a happy but yet unhappy man (if you know what I mean).

Doesn't appear to be a photoshop:

ah.. I stand corrected. I knew the car wasn't finished so that must be a prototype/test vehicle.

400hp of naturally aspirated power in a lightweight agile car would be a whole lot of fun!

but 380 hp is a lighter, more agile, less luxurious car would be even more fun
i.e. the current 996 GT3.

The 997 GT3 will apparently use the same engine as the 997S but with internal tweaks of course. No more engine derived from GT1, 964 etc.... - in my view if that is true, they can place that car where photosynthesis does not take place...

I think it´s a Gemballa Car-Kit (Engine and Spoilers) for the 997 no GT3 or so, because of the Lizensplates BB (Leonberg)= Gemballa.... most of the Porsche Cars have S (Stuttgart (Zuffenhausen) Lizensplates.

(most of the pic´s have BB Lizensplates)
