A little on the high side but i like the color

Anthrazite-Gold seems to be rare?

Opinions?

Grey/Black, white gold. It's all relative since there aren't that many 7.2 RS's to begin with, but that livery isn't that rare.

If you like grey/black, I’d just find the best grey/black example you can for the right price. The livery is easily interchangeable to whatever color you want. No penalty for changing red bits to gold or black or whatever color you want. Kinda like installing a center bypass; a lot of people do it and you aren’t really “destroying” originality; you are just changing some easy bits that are all easily reverse-able. If you like the car overall and it’s at the right price, go for it, but not because the livery is gold/rare. Just my opinion.

good luck.

Sounds right. I would still have to get those golden wheels i guess. Is there a market for those?

It is easier to find a 997.2 RS as the production numbers are higher than the 997.1

Wheel color change is the easy part, you can paint or powder coat them the color of your choice and revert down the road if you wish.

Ok, thx. Just one final question. I like the cage but not the full cage, is it a big thing to remove the cage make it a half cage again? Is is welded?

I did see a cage in the pics, but just barely. To me, it looked like a half cage, I typically think of a full cage as one that is going down the a pillar as well. If you want to post up some other pics, we could probably let you know if it is welded in, but in these cars, I am pretty sure everyone just does bolt in cages.

no overrevs according to DME report and my experience with the sellers track driving.

included with sale - DAS sport bar, OZ Racing 18” rims with Hoosiers, Girodisc iron rotors / aluminum hats and street pads / Pagid Yellows / Pagid Blacks, GT2 bar, pinned coolant lines.

if I’m going to track it (some) did I do okay? What is the resale on the car in this condition? Interior and exterior are spotless and maintenance is meticulous.

I love the car regardless and plan to keep it for awhile.

I think you got a great deal. Congrats!

Anyone know this car?

https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/invent...ting=242391416

its got 6 point harnesses, so I assume it was tracked. figured someone here might know it.

I don't know a ton about .2RS, but I just sold a 964, and my search for the right 964RS hasn't born any fruit yet...

Car also has been pinned or welded (not sure which). DME does have a recent hit on range 4. Would be nice if they can CPO car but that won’t happen.

Based on the photos you provided, it appears to be a rear bolt in.

Anyone know this car or have info on it? SA told me there are mods and a tune on it and also a lift system, but he doesn't have a list of mods so can't tell me what is in it.

Would like to see if previous owner is on RL to get a list of the mods.

TIA.
