At the Porsche tent at Pebble Beach Concours this year, I saw a gorgeous White with Red Wheels/Script/Mirrors/Spolier end-caps, etc. that was very evocative of the 73RS.

Very nice. I could like it better with black wheels.

Not a fan of that combo, but I bet the opposite (red with black accents) would look pretty sweet.

I was at Champion a month ago (killing time on a business trip) and IIRC they were asking $175K then... buy it now at $153...

I was told by the sales guy that this was one of three RS' in this color combo from the factory... it looks better in person than on a computer...

I like it. I concur with the other posters above -- red with black script would be HAWT, or simply add the black wheels to this one...

I love it. Also love the fact that it is asking less than 7k over. I also would love to see a red RS with black accents.

I really like that car... Although I'm more into a white/red combo like Colm's... 996-ish if you will!

Me too - it's perfect (but I'd rather think of it as 73RS-ish than 996-ish)
