Or it's possible (although unlikely) that the owner did his own maintenance

Assumed you guys would be interested in this video. They talk about 997.2 GT3’s for a couple minutes starting at about 46 minutes in. The last thing they mention about these cars is super important. Don’t buy these purely as an investment but because you love driving them. The best part about these is how they drive.

I also noted that he said the 997 is at the lowest point in its resell lifecycle and in general a buy. So if the 997 GT3 is the highest of the low…

unless there are records proving otherwise, safer bet it just sat.

This was the best combo imho

Possibly a lot were dealer specced and they would stick to launch colors or colors you would see on press cars or press releases (gray/red and white/red).

Its interesting that they approved the 997.2 sport classic for import but not the 3RS, I did notice the 996 GT3 RS was approved also.

The havnt specifically denied it yet though unlike the club sport… maybe we just need to try

A few months ago you had said, to me, you liked Meteor over Atlas. After I saw Atlas, I have to 100% agree, Meteor is just a stunning "gray".....I like it way more than my Arctic.....

On the green RS, I saw that its listed as British Racing Green, I thought BRG was a little (maybe a couple shades) darker than that and that looks more Emerald...Am I wrong? I know color is subjective and it varies in digital copy, but all the pics I'm seeing of this beautiful creature are pretty consistent......

in regards to the BRG GT3RS in Europe. Seems priced well for the miles, and in 2036 its import eligible. Am I a moron for thinking buy and store in Europe, so you have a car there on trips, and when the time comes, bring it back? The delta is $100k cheaper.
