I think that 'reverse pumpkin' treatment looks pretty damn good on the 992 GT3 RS. Better than I expected!

I have had a black G body 911 and I said I’d never do it again, but black looks good on the new RS because you cannot see all the Pontiac Aztec and Chevy Avalanche inspired black plastic….

This is the exact car that Top Gear used on their east coast road trip back in 2010 pictured in 2020. Probably one of the most viewed GT3 RS’ and one I’m sure that influenced a lot of future owners to obtain one of these cars. I found the current owners car Instagram at some point, but can’t remember what it was. This was one of the 2 997.2 GT3 RS’ on the Porsche press fleet and the one that was seen the most. Too many different media things this car was featured in to list, but the Top Gear appearance was definitely its most notable.

VIN: WP0AC2A92BS783236

It snowed again yesterday so I couldn't do anything but wash it . I still say nothin beats the glimmer of newly washed white in person… except ofc for the first 30 seconds after you clean black.

I believe this might also be the car Richard Hammond had a minor off track in at VIR while on set.

I saw it when it was for sale. Nice car. They were asking 155k. That ship has long sailed.

Damn, I think I originally said black but seeing it again, I now have to vote Red. However, I love how it's black on one side and red on the other. Best of both worlds.
