White/Riviera Blue GT3RS in Greenwich
7 Attachment(s)
Attached below are photos of my new RS as promised. The "Minella Edition"
is really just what Porsche should have done at the factory, and has has done in the past: 1. Mirrors are carbon fiber (to match the rear wing) from Cargraphic. Porsche put carbon fiber mirrors on the white/blue or white/red 996 RS's that were sold in the "rest of the world", but never made to our shores. 2. Graphics were produced by Jim Newton at Automobile Associates in Canton, CT by scanning the 997 RS graphics for form and the 996 RS graphics for color (Riviera Blue), both of which I obtained from my Porsche dealer in Greenwich. 3. The wheels were painted by Jim Newton in the style the 996 RS wheels were painted, and the Riviera Blue was matched exactly to the graphics color. Caps on tire stems painted silver (a nice touch). 4. Options: Ceramic yellow calipers, yellow seat belts, bi-xenon headlights, GPS and chrono plus, leather steering wheel, mats, leather seats, and outside antenna. I'm quite happy with the way the car turned out. Ray |
That is a sweet look'n ride Ray :thumbup:
Always thought the 996RS scheme (red and blue) was bad ass and the reference really works on the 997RS. Great way to dress up white. |
Ray...
Wicked! Congratulations on the new arrival! |
I'm quite sure that this will grow on you rather than age poorly. The interesting thing is that it it is striking, but in a far different way than green or orange. No doubt this was the effect you and Mr Newton wished to achieve.
Very good, arresting yet still tasteful in any setting. |
Done Right! Beautiful! Thanks for posting.
|
Very nice!
Where did you get the CF mirrors? Are they just CF covers or the whole thing? Thanks! |
LOVE IT!!!
|

I have to say, never have I handed keys to a more deserving Porsche enthusiast than Ray Minella. This Saturday at around 6:30 AM he was spotted slipping his 1962 Twin Grill Roadster on to an IntercityLines truck for transport to Amelia Island. At around 4:PM he cruised by the dealership in his already completed one off 997 GT3 RS in White with Riviera Blue stripes.
It is the only one of it's kind. Congratulations Ray on yet another amazing Porsche! Based on the reaction of those that gathered around with cameras in hand, I feel it safe to say that this car has already become a "Rockstar". |
Stunning - Love it, love it, love it! Many congratulations and enjoy. :biggulp:

I don't like it.... the blue wheels and the yellow calipers are not working for me. But I don't see spending the extra money on an RS. Look at GRussell"s GT3... that is a car that is done right.

Great looking - pretty cool, love the CF mirrors.
