Maybe I should move to the UK to be closer to the RS cars instead of waiting for them to appear here

Love that car!!

How do we mortal V-ram guys get our hands on some of that 60 extra HP? A conceniently round number.

Is it a 3.8? If so, how much does that account for?

Even the best exhausts can maybe only account for 25 HP, right?

Are "extractor manifolds" like headers? I don't speak British How much for that? or from the 100 cell cats?

Very nice. Too nice (read: expensive) for the track which is where it belongs.

Wow... beautiful car...

Can't really decide though - part of me says it's good value (very few RHD RSs made), part of me says it's overpriced (that's pretty high mileage for an RS)...

One thing's for sure: that's gonna make somebody a very happy guy...

I was looking at that issue to Total 911 today....what an awesome car. The mint green 964 RS from the article isn't bad either.

Hard to be certain but from the magazine article cover and the mirror positions in the side shots the car looks to be LHD. That makes the price seem even higher.

Scott, think your wife would notice if you swapped them?

EDIT: Swapped cars, not the wife for the car!
