very nice, I like those flying lizard cars. I am building that in a 24:1 scale plastic model right now. I have all the parts scattered over the table being painted and preped for assembly.

good looking models you have there. Love the detail

The wife decided not to buy me GT2 seats for the RS & I received the same model! Looking forward to building it with my son.

MikeoR32, where did you get the flying lizard GT3RSR? What's the scale?
I've been looking for one.

I wish I could take credit for the detail on the models, but they are 1:18 diecast. The GT3RS is made by Norev, and the Flying Lizard is made by AutoArt. I ordered the FL RSR directly from their webstore (cheaper there than ordering directly from AutoArt). The level of detail is awesome. I have both on my desk in my home office and just constantly stare at them....

AutoArt has a lot of fun models for the 997. This one is pricey, but kind-of the dream for my diecast collection:

They do have the 1:18 version for considerably less, so that will probably complete my die-cast collecting for the 997 :-)

Lopro, I found out the previous owner of my RS had the $13k Carrera GT/GT3 seats in the car, but took them out & put the stock seats back in before he traded the car in. I wish he didn't as I LOVE those seats, but $13k...no way. The GT2/GT3 seats w/ folding back are around $6,500. Again the wife wasn't too amused....lol.

MikeoR32, thanks for posting the info, I'm going to order the Flying Lizards GT3RSR. It'll be a nice addition to the 997.1 RS (orange), 997.1 GT3 & 997.1 GT3cup I have.
Then I'm looking at starting to collect the 917, 908, 956/962, 935, 911GT1....etc...
