Default Euro Delivery GT3RS

I just dropped off my old RS at Porsche Classic for a full restoration and picked up my new one and porsche made it in the exact same color scheme. I highly recommend it

If in fact you dropped an "old" RS for full restoration, I don't think it's the one on your left cause I doesn't look like it needs to be restored.

Love the new RS, the first I see in red.

They both are mine, I actually have the only 997 GT3RS with the white red scheme it wasnt offered but with enough begging and pleading they made an exception. It has the full red stripes as well. Its very heavily optioned with leather wrapped everything and red stitching everywhere and white painted center console and vents, red belts. i have many many pictures I just cant resize them to fit here Im not much of a photoshop expert. The restoration of the 73 which will be a total ground up resto which it doesnt really need but I want to basically pick up a brand new 73. What can be more correct than a full factory restoration? they even give each restored car its own book on the restoration process...pretty sick stuff..the cost was a very rough quote of about 140k usd. Well worth it for a brand new 73. After picking up the new RS I headed to Prague for a weekend to party a bit then sunday night headed to nurburgring which was absolutely amazing even in the wet..I could talk for hours about it...All i can say is the euro delivery program is a must do

Incredible, thanks for posting. To have those two cars in the garage at disposal would be porsche nirvana.

If you'd like to email me the pics at encoremaranello@yahoo.com I'd be happy to resize and post them all in this thread.
It is critical that these pics are posted asap!!!....cruelty if not..

btw is the red (applied on either RS/or both?) Guards Red or some other name?thanks

Congrats!

Isn't it great we can live vicariously through others here! What DID we do pre-internet when all you'd hear is a third hand story, "hey, there's this guy in Florida..............."
