Default Rare 993 RS at R Gruppe Treffen Meet!

I just returned from the 2012 R Gruppe Treffen held this year at Solvang, in the California Central Coast region. In attendance was a rare 993 RS in 'Riviera Blue'. Owner is from Sweden who currently works in China. He brought the car to the US for six months so that he can tour the country with it on his vacations from the Far East. I think he will be also attending the Historics in Monterey, so some of you will probably see it then!

Saludos,

not only is it an RS, it appears to be the even rarer RS w/Clubsport pkg...

I heard it might be 'Signal Green', but I am not sure!

Bill, your car is stunning... I embarked upon some relatively similar (RS) madness with my C2S! (sadly not Riviera Blue) although I stopped short of changing aerokit II for the RS, this car had RS suspension, Speedlines, lightweight flywheel, 3.8L powerkit, turbo brakes... monoballs *everywhere* ...
