Every car with orange trim (black and silver) that was available had orange deviated stitching. My intent was to remove the orange on a black or silver car if I found one but I would be left with orange deviated stitching... not a big deal but not what I wanted

THIS car (interior pics on registry) has no orange deviated stitching... this is a perfect candidate for stealth RS... if you do not like the orange, simply remove deals and paint wheels and you have a silver RS


Todd - if you want to part with the front half of the cage, please let me know
My black/orange .1 vin 2832 has the grey stitching and is in the process of going stealth. Stickers removed, about to get some gold e88's, just need to find another set of winglets and mirrors to paint black (or leave carbon fiber and match the side mirrors) since I want to keep all the stock parts in case I ever sell in the future.

Good luck with sale OP. I would also put it back to stock and part out what you can.

Nice car, this is the one from AZ right?? My buddy knows the car, said it was super clean and not driven hard. Personally I'd also opt to turning back to stock and selling the cool bits separately... will broaden your market a bit for sure. PM sent on fikses

Stealth RS for the win!

I do too. I have all of the stock parts.

As I figured would be the case, consensus seems to be that going back to stock is the way to go. I will give it through the weekend just in case any track guy decides to save themselves some money by purchasing a car that is ready to go.

Thanks for the positive comments. Its a nice car and I wish it made sense for me to keep it.

Sell track wheels, track seats and track Steering wheel.

Early production with factory roll bar mounts is just bliss in the .1RS.

Retail on cage to the door, painted and installed is all of $10k.
Just for fun I looked up the parts for the Clubsport cage.....

Getty should have the end plates for your wing. Popped a mold off of one of my old cars.

Just saw Todd and the Silver/Orange RS driving around downtown Gig Harbor, car looked good. I'll take the front cage if you're ever ready to sell...

Yes, made the mistake of taking the car out for a drive then headed straight to Tides Tavern to drown my sorrows over having to let it go. Someone is going to end up spending a lot more money on this car in a month or two but you can't blame me for not offering it up.

Keep it. Too hard to replace.

It is so beautiful. I would keep it. The best GT3 RS version except the latest 4.0.
