Talking Picking up the 991 GT2 RS in Istanbul with the GT3 RS !

Hello everyone,

We just picked up my friend's long awaited, magnificent 991 GT2 RS here in Istanbul, TURKEY.
To top it all of, we went to the collection with his GT3 RS ! Does life get better than this ?

Here's a quick Vlog I shot of the day with subtitles, hope you guys like it.

How does it have weissach wheels without the weissach package?.. I didn't realize these were a stand-alone option

Edit: are those just gold-painted standard wheels?

Those are gold-painted standard, an OEM option or maybe the default spec.

OP that is just about exactly how I would spec mine if I got an allocation and wanted it, gorgeous example. Congrats to your friend hope he enjoys that beast in good health, thanks for sharing

I only drove the GT3 RS and for me it is the true star since I am a NA guy BUT, the 2RS is something else. Its got soo much road presence. Will add driving impressions once the break-in is done.

I also think non wp looks great. I am not really fond of that center stripe/paint on the WP but of course wouldn't mind any of them given the chance There are 4 more cars coming to Turkey.

Yes and no,. They are non wp wheels but have gt2 rs embodied on them which makes them a bit more special than 3rs wheels.

I agree. GT silver is an amazing shade of grey.
