On paper this vehicle looked pretty decent so I decided to take the drive and have a look.... I am perplexed with the vehicle and its condition and hope someone can help. There is some info lurking around about this VIN: WP0AC2A90BS783235 , but not enough to fill in allot of questionable things.

Thank you for the additional information!! I know one of the owners was/is a member of this forum, curious to hear if he has anything to add.
Of-course! I spent ~3 hours driving and wouldn't want others to do the same after being led to believe the vehicle is nearly-immaculate.
If anyone would like, feel free to DM me, I took a 15 minute walk around and brief inspection video that I can send over. Nothing close to a PPI, but I am sure it could help someone down the line.
I do not think I am any bit interested in a vehicle in this condition for obvious reasons. What is this vehicle worth? 120k? Far from the 168k that is being asked with how much TLC that needs to be put into this RS. Crack-price, thats for certain.

No Feelings Hurt, Aside From The Centerlock PIA, .2 Better to Me In Every-way, IMO, I've Had Different Models Of Both .1 & .2.....
The .1 Wing I Never liked & Sunroof?
I liked that the car was modded though, I Never drive stock.

Pulled the trigger today with Doug, Daniel, and Thomas at Switchcars on the white 08 GT3 Doug put on this thread earlier this week.
They could not have been nicer to work with. Crazy set of circumstances but they actually delivered it to me in Columbus today (that is not part of their normal service). I put about 50 miles on it today before the rains started moving in.
First impression, It feels very raw compared to my c2s. The Club seats are a pain to get in and out of but I love them (so I don't plan to sell them, before you ask). The PCCB brakes are noticeably better than my c2s. The clutch feels a little heavier and the shifter feels more pronounced (almost like it is gated). It is an amazing car!
Thanks again, Doug, Daniel, and Thomas as well as Bxstr for leading me to Switchcars. All first rate Guys!

Good evening.
Does anyone know the story with this car? https://www.pcarmarket.com/auction/d...sche-gt3-rs-3/
It is also for sale on ebay. It does have 30k miles and possibly 7 owners but the price is in regular GT3 territory... Its tempting.

I've had my .2 with Ceramic PCCB & CL's for 2 years now. It's not rocket science. In fact very easy to pull off, check the moly grease & stability of the CL nut itself, and re-install. Just did it last night in a record time of 3 minutes (once I got the car in the air). I use the Rennlist SmokinGTS glide tool to protect my Ceramic rotors too. easy peezy.
anyway,... just thought I would chime in to give perspective for those guys who may not have ever done it,... and are considering a .1 over a .2 for solely that reason.

aside from guys who heavily track, I am not sure why there seems to be so much apprehension on CL's. I consider myself a backyard mechanic who has built many motors myself over the decades, and has a deep garage of specialty tools from such builds.
