I love the "Screaming Chicken" on the hood. Smokey and the Bandit lives on.

At $180K the LE GT3RS will sell and sell well.

Call it GT3 RSR, increase price to $225k, and it will sell even faster.

Truth be told here's what I would want and oh yeah make it look like this:

-500+ bhp
-Better gearing for better low end acceleration (get me to 185 mph as quickly as possible and forget about top speed)
-a REAL diff.
-a better R&P (like the one in the RSR/CUP cars or the one Gaurds builds)
-KERS
-PDK (option)
-Full Ti exhaust
-Forged lightweight wheels
-Lightweight (3000 lbs or lower)
-RSR Body (wide and mostly Carbon Fibre)
-Lightweight Philosophy to permeate throughout (no sun visors, lightweight carpet, lightweight seats, sticker instead of bonnet crest, no/lightweight sound deadening material, smaller windshield washer fluid bottle, etc...)
-Interior lights optional
-Radio optional
-Air Con optional

The spec below could justify the RSR moniker, but would probably cost 'ya $300K if built by Porsche that way, minus the KERS even, which would be near impossible to include on a street car at that target weight. Add to that list too a legit coolant fitting solution.

3000 lbs or less? No way in hell that would pass crash and safety standards in the USA. You would have to make it as small as a lotus elise.
