Default New Porsche 991 GT3 RS Engine Catches Fire For The Second Time
Hope it is not the same issue as the GT3 cars.



From the article:
New Porsche 991 GT3 RS Engine Catches Fire For The Second Time, Apparently this Porsche 991 GT3 RS had a engine change after 480km (300 miles) and the second engine ended with catching fire also.

OK Guys thats enough for the day. I am sure he has insurance and they will pay off the balance.

I hope porsche will sells him another RS plus $40k above MSRP.
