I thought this was totally worth the repost. IMO, this is THE way to do an RS!!

It is a replica of the 997 Sport classic (the owner also have this one) with the Sport Classic grey. I did'nt manage to see it again...

Puf, here's some grigio campovolo siblings!!! Good looking family!
Thanks Daniel. That RS looks to be at Hatfield - my OPC. I was there about a week or so ago and the SA said they'd just told a RS in Grigio. How did you get the photo - is the owner a fellow Rennlister?
And the C4S looks to be the same one that Hatfield had for sale last year. I posted a photo here: https://rennlist.com/forums/991-gt3-...l#post12446642. This car was configured by the dealer for inventory and was directly responsible for me selecting the same colour for my GTS. Perhaps the RS owner saw it too.
Hatfield is doing its bit for the colour by spawning at least three Grigio 991s in a relatively short space of time.
Thanks Puf, I didn't realize they all came from the same dealership--that makes for an even closer lineage! I think the European dealerships have led the way with introducing (and possibly obtaining the initial approval for) quite a few less well known but beautiful colours, including fashion grey, of which I saw quite a few photos from Glasgow (another habitual PTS buyer). But we North Americans are now starting to figure it out, at least based on this iteration of PTS RS's now hitting these shores. In answer to your question, I found the RS photos on instagram starting with ptsrs's site.

Hey, glad to get a shoutout! This dealer, OPC Hatfield, is a Porsche Exclusive Centre so they order a lot of PTS cars. For the RS alone, in addition to the Grigio Campovolo they also sold a Speed Yellow, Riv Blue, Voodoo Blue, Viper Green (with 997.1 RS decals), Slate Grey and are awaiting a Signal Green for their last PTS RS. Just amazing really.
