GT3 really is a terrible car until the last 500 rev. no matter how close you are to climax, until she comes, you have not had sex... it appears that many love dry humping... I supposed thats' fine too.
3. it's a car, drive it hard
This is even better if you read it like poem

DOES THAT SCARE YOU GUYS????

Drive the **** out of these cars, because, you can't take it with you.

Not for sale. Dead mans car.
These are my goals with a 997.1 RS.

Here’s a 2011 Gt3 RS / PTS Birch green, listed last night. Looks like a good one owner vehicle in SoCal.

love the color,... quite outrageous,... but gawd I would have to paint the calipers to match. That color difference would bug the crap outta me.

... took a closer look at the pics... SO MANY different yellow colors on that car! .. belts, calipers,.. & I doubt the stitching yellow is a match,... heck even the sticker on the back of the LWBS is a different yellow

don't like the crest caps either. RS is RS.

I wish Rennlist would judge a car by its engine displacement and not the color of its calipers or seat belts

i would buy that RS if I had the monies :/

In this particular case, it’s about the price premium placed because of color so we are simply expressing our opinion on aesthetics. You are right though, If I had the money, I would buy one of every color including this one.

Hey I’m kinda still a young fart and I place equipment and maintenance ahead of caliper and seat belt colors😁 Although mine has both in yellow, I wish the belts were black. They get dirty from touching. Serious question, Is the paint option one of the biggest drivers for asking price?
