R has carbon fibre front fenders IIRC, as well as CF hood and magnesium roof - same as the RS. Same width as GT3.

I'm more than thrilled with my silver/green incoming but this is just spectacular.

Many don't seem to be 'buying' the stripes. I see their point: Delete the wing for understatement, then add stripes?

+991

Stripes is a nono on this car. Looks clean and beautiful without them.

Not sure about this one....

If this is not just a photoshop, it might be one of the rare PTS R's painted in a metallic colour. Judging by the plates (which previously appeared on a press car in GT silver 911R with green roof stripes and black side stripes), it is most likely a photoshop. If it's a real blue metallic, it could be Gemini blue metallic.

Photoshop of a GT Silver/Green prototype. Confirmed by the original uploader. Lost count of the messages I've received about this one and responding with the bad news.
