Love the GT3RS. Very cool car. They make it in daft colors though. Black with orange rims? What's all that about?

[ZO6 AL-X]

That's what I like about the car. Porsche decided to make it stand out from the rest with the wicked paint job. Kind of like GM did with making the RF edition white.

Yes, but the only thing that sets the RF edition apart is the paint. Isn't the GT3RS more than just a unique paint scheme?

[ZO6 AL-X]

I meant looks only, as far as paint.

Yeah, you're right, the RS is a complete package that includes PS Cups, cage, etc.

[No Doubt]

The U.S. version of the GT3 RS is lighter than the base GT3, but not as light as the european version*, which is 44 lbs lighter. Both the european and U.S. versions have split rear control arms which permit more camber adjustment. The rear bodywork is wider and the wheels have less offset than the base GT3 which increases the rear track by 1.3 inches. The rear deck lid is plastic and has a carbon-fiber rear wing. BTW, the orange/black color scheme is a $3,000+ option.

The european version has a bolt-in roll cage, a Lexan rear window, single piece carbon-fiber seats and 5-point harnesses.

Euro spec (DIN) GT3 RS weight: 3,031 lbs. EMPTY weight (no fuel, passengers or luggage).

That's a nice list of items it comes with. Thanks.
