Default Pixs of US GT3 RS

Hopefully, no one is appalled by the yellow side markers. I picked up the car last night and didn't have time to replace with clear ones yet. You can thank my wife for the pixs. I haven't posted photos before - hopefully this works.

I'm loving your car!!! Also, the interior looks very nice without the full leather option. Beautiful car!

Another big congrats! And thanks to your wife for taking some great pix! She performed a great service and now Rennlisters can get back to their normal lives and not be glued to rl waiting for pix of the first RS on U.S. shores....wait a second, hanging out and obsessively checking in on rl is pretty much the normal life for most crazed Rennlisters, never mind

Fascinating. I have a "normal" GT3 (also in white) and I'd like to see the differences between the two.

I'd appreciate pics of the following, please:

1. rear wing and deck lid close-up, open and closed, especially the connection between the wing and the engine cover

2. door liner with door open (to see any differences from GT3)

3. roof liner

4. front and rear wheel hubs showing spacers (shoot the hub through the wheel)

5. any RS documentation or supplements or spec listings in the owner's manual.


Congratulations.

Will it be tracked?

That's a super wife. Congratulations.

The car looks amazing. I wonder how heavy is it?

CF Seats: -60 lbs
A/C Delete: -42 lbs
PCCB: -37 lbs
Lightweight Wheels: -40 lbs (Mag)
Empty trunk: -20 lbs (at least)
===================
Close to 200 lbs weight reduction.

I'm expecting the no option US GT3 RS to hit 3,150 lbs on the scales with an empty fuel tank (3,260 lbs with a full tank). However, it could be lighter than that given the lightweight trunk lid that I didn't is coming with the car.

A 200 lbs weight reduction is the equivalent of a 28Hp upgrade for this car. How does 443 Hp sound with no mods?

How is it? Looks like you have not really been able to drive it cause of the weather. Congrats!

Congrats and thanks for the photos!

Interesting that you have white mirrors also - I guess that is why the charge the extra over orange or green, as those have black mirrors!

congrats,

I know you mentioned that you are getting stencils done for the car but to be honest - no disrespect to you - the car as is, in white, looks boring.
