This car even has a lot of rare extra leather options such as the door center panel and seats centers (normally Alcantara, but leather in this car) just to name a couple.

Yea some like the leather option is good because long term they will wear better... personally I like alkantara, the kick panel is the only thing I see that could be an issue, does it have a legit dent on it... can't tell if its reflection.

Alcantara on non-wear surfaces - love it. Headliner or shift boot - great. On wear surfaces your hands use often (steering wheel and shift ****) - not so much.

Yea I'm kinda waiting for my carbon seat alcantara to show wear so I can buy something funky to wrap them with, If I'm pushing the car I cant stop my hands from sweating so I wear gloves... leather steering and shift *** replacements are 1/2 the price of alcantara.

WTB: 997.2 GT3 RS
Hello rennlist community, I'm a new member and multi-year lurker on this thread finally ready to get into a solid, driver-example 997.2 GT3 RS for street and occasional track visits - I'm posting this in case there are owners who don't have their car on the market, but would consider a sale with an easy to work with, cash in hand buyer.


My "Must Haves":
-Up to date maintenance/service with records/documentation
-No accidents

-Not a super low mileage collector-grade/museum piece

My Preferences:
-PREFER a higher mileage, well maintained example
-Especially interested in examples optioned with: carbon buckets, pccb, FAL, welded coolant lines, full clear-bra
-Track time and/or some mods are okay, and paintwork ain’t a bad thing if it's done correctly


Me:
-ready to buy, financials secured
-will ask for a Indy PPI and DME
-loc San Diego CA
-Matt 3oh3 five tow for 72 six1


Thanks!

Best of luck with the search Matt. Sounds like you're being very reasonable on what you're looking for.

Looks roughly about a .2 RS equivalent before the .2 RS was released. Engine bored out to 3.8 liters from 3.6 with similar output to the .2 RS, SMFW, and reworked gearing.

seems if one wanted a non-tracked GT car, there would be a lot more chances of finding a 991 (they built so many more, and sold many to people that do not track)

FWIW - I have only tracked fleet Porsches at PSDS @ Barber, but I've never expected that any of my purchases had not been tracked.
There are sad cases of ppl like me that bought everything they need years ago for the track and it’s still on the shelf… I’ve been to 4 day school at skip barber and bondurant and never driven my own car. I’d trade whatever the difference someone is willing to pay me for my virgin car to have a few track days…Queue violins

Good call out. .2RS performance in 2007.
It's interesting how the pricing looked for 2007. RGT was quite the premium and in USA it was 9k more Euros premium for the RGT.
GT3 114k Euros
GT3RS 135k Euros
Ruf RGT 169k Euros

Sad sight indeed! Hope you get it out on the track sometime soon. I'm rooting for you.

So it seems like ppl are willing to pay $150k if I take it back to stock w/the 18 way…assuming the car is what I say it is. But no one is willing yet to make it easy on me and cover my Dundon + gt2 CF seats…which are discontinued now so who knows what that’s going to do to $… the GT3 CF are up to $32,000.

So knowing I could resell those two things on here for $20k…giving me the $170 I was looking for, it gives me just enough of an excuse to keep it
