In case anyone was curious what happened to the PTS Cream White .2 RS that was at RFM for $575k it was bought by this big 997 collector on Instagram. He has multiple 997 Turbo’s, a 997 GT2, a PTS Pastel Orange .2 GT3 (the one that sold for peanuts on BaT and from this thread), and now this car. Pretty much all of them gotten through RFM. Here is the link to the guys account.

So much interest in that car as it seems a 74k mile example is possible for many to be able to afford. Funny how all the interest just might make this a high priced car. So much interest I feel like like bidding. 7days and we will see.
There are a few things that I see haven't been addressed:
1. Those little wind deflectors that reside under the front bumper are missing. Funny as AG painted that bumper prior to listing it. Wonder if they even realized that little deflectors go in those square holes under the front bumper.
2. The steering wheel is not from a GT3, the air bag is.
3. A few pictures of what look to be some sort of front spoiler that doesn't wrap around the entire front end or who knows.....it's painted white and not a GT3 spoiler.
Past owner, had some things I found to be well.... different. Oil Choices, front spoiler in white and not GT3, complaints about ride quality and alignment specs he wanted. Maybe just wanted to cruise down to highway.

plus the welding hackjob on the rear floorboards ... didn't even bother to put seam sealer over the welds. The factory seam sealer and undercoating don't look to great around those areas either, and it looks like there's a patch job or something near the fuel lines (are those fuel lines or evap lines?) adjacent to the welds on the driver's side. The BAT connoisseurs are getting all moist already though, so it'll be interesting to see what it sells for.

Out of all the stuff out there I just feel like it’s priced close?
I get it’s not per its build sheet, leather interior, carbon shifter, tail lights, radio, center console, pccb… but expensive ones? The range 5s were a while ago and it’s physically clean so seems like a SW 4.1 would solve any anxiety around the engine.

I personally would not be able to stretch to that level of dollars for it and I don't track enough to justify an RS.
I have been a passenger in them plenty of times though, they are amazing machines.

I’m not saying it should be the same price, but that $40k delta you pretty close to a SW4.1
grey w/white are pretty cool
