It has me wanting to drop the rear of my car to match, mine has more rake.

car looks great. How are the aftermarket skirts holding up? You mentioned some fitment issues in the past

No such thing. GT3 RS was only available as a 996.2

Ah crap! Back to the drawing board! Thanks for that info. I'll stick with my 6.1's for now.

That's what I was getting at. According to those in the know the 6.2 GT3s are the real starting point

They're holding up well. Other than the driver's side being slightly longer than it should be. I have no complaints.

That is really bizarre. Have you reached out to the manufacturer to see what the deal is?

That would annoy the hell outta me.

I spotted this while my car was in for service. Which one of you drives this sweet ride?

I also saw this while out on a bike ride. Ended up in the gutter and almost ate it from rubbernecking

Late in the office when everyone else is WFH. Doesn’t matter when you’re driving back in a 911

Absolutely love this road. When in San Jose for work in 2018 I rented a road bike and rode up Mt. Hamilton to the observatory and back. It's pretty much a 20 mile climb I think. It was right after the wild fire so it all had that vibe. Close to the top I stopped to take this photo and now have it printed and hanging in my living room.
