Only my '07 RS (one of 12 USA cars?) has the welded Euro mounting (F/R) points.
None of my subsequent RS's have mounting points.

If you parked a Mclaren every 20 mins on track or 3 laps of the 'ring I reckon you'll never overheat the car into limp mode either....

You redeem the coupon at the "Parts counter" and sign a liability release that says these parts are for "Offroad Use Only". Bam, we get the full package and Porsche is able to placate their US customers. Win Win.


Nah, that's definitely Lava. Lava's one of the most polarizing colors because it never looks the same. In my opinion, it's looks at it's worst in bright sunny conditions where it gets washed out and looks milky. But looks at it's best at a deep darker sharp orange when it's under really good indoor Fluorescent lighting that makes it look like the color of a Persimmon. Then ofcourse there's the really odd time of day where it almost has a Salmon look to it. In some pics it can look amazing and others, eh, not so much. But personally, I've seen the color in person enough on 3RS's to know that I actually like the color but in my opinion must be coupled with black wheels and wing uprights.
