We just sold ours, and I really enjoyed the car in a nostalgic kind of way. IMO, the GT3 interior bits (Alcantara Steering wheel, Shift lever/boot and Handbrake) are really cool touches.

If I was pick one up though, I'd swap the Black center Carrera S wheels for some modular wheels (BBS LM-R, Fikse FM-5/FM-10, etc.) with Black centers. This with some Springs/Coilovers would make really make one of these really tempting!

The father of one of my friends bought one in the fall the first day it arrived at the dealership.

Gorgeous car.

The more I see it, the more I like it. Not keen on the black wheels, but love the exterior color.

Agreed...I'd love to have one but I'd have to change the wheels to something a little more "normal". I think that will make a big difference in how you look at it every day. Keep the black ones, of course, and put them on if you want to "show" your car somewhere (or for resale if you, foolishly, ever decide to get rid of it).

Looks like a jack-o-lantern, but to each his own I guess.

Got number 69 but it's only a Boxster. Very nice car.

Well, I never did get that car. I am sure if I see one used down the road I would jump on it, but after just getting out the Navy and having no job on the brink of a recession, my financial manager(wife) advised(told) me to hold off on new toys.

Someone in Lexington has one, it drove past me as I was leaving campus yesterday. Happened to see an orange GT3 RS the day before in nearly the same spot, which was even more unexpected.

I found out that my dealer had one and called to find out about it... whoever ordered it did so with a damned tiptronic AND they did the same thing with the RS60 they have

ugh
