The red and green are two of my fav of all time, across all marques.

I've owned my RS for 7 years and absolutely still love it for all the same reasons.
Great find and thanks for posting!

Mine as well. I drove a couple scuds a few years ago and just loved the raw interior, the not so perfect gearbox, the analog feel of the car, the exhaust note. It was a car I loved to drive. But I just didn't love the looks. To me the car is imbalanced aesthetically. Nose too long and rear end too short.

After 5 years I love my 997.1 RS even more than the day I bought it.

^^^The 997.1rs "noses" the scud for me just a bit (pun intended) but I think they make a fabulous pairing.

2 of 3 identical.
RS over Scuderia.
Lambo waste of time.

Drove a Scud earlier this year and loved it. That said my RS isn’t going anywhere.
