[calgarys13]

hey renee now that you have a job you can pay me back for the kei office suspension!!!$721.76 please!

[Hakkola]

Love the car, but that's the worst interior colour. :thumbsdow

[inline6turbo]

im not a fan of the interior period. it looks to... friendly... if you know what i mean. A very aggresive/expensive car deserves something better then what you can expect from every other new car....

[nismodrifter]

So it's basically a FOB car :dunno: :D

[infamous]

hehehe i'm the lucky guy in the passenger seat in the video ...i'm sorry, i don't care what anyone says about the interior, the 480 hp and 457 ft-lbs of torque say enough! it's scary fast :eek: :drool: :D

nice pics renee!

[tapout]

so sexy:drool: :drool:

[hoamic11]

[Hollywood]

I dont liek porches that much but that one is pretty nice. I think I like it because it has a few nice finishing touches others do not have.

[SilverBoost]

I like the interior, the way it's set up and looks for the most part, I just hate the colour in that car. Grey is the worst interior colour for ANY vehicle.

[ZorroAMG]

^ Fuck you. :D Haha....Seal Grey is the best exterior, hands down, and NOTHING's wrong with charcoal interior.

[schurchill39]

:drool: I am loving the new touches on this model

[Hakkola]

:werd: I saw this car in person yesterday, I had to stop and drool for a minute.

[max_boost]

Wow. It's so nice.:hitit: :love:

[toyboy88]

wow that looks gorgeous!

[crazydriver]

sweet car :thumbsup:

[shakalaka]

What's the retail on one of those?

And don't give me that "more than you can afford pal, porsche' bullshit! lol

[inline6turbo]

the owner paid just over 250k for it

[Akagi Redsuns]

So basically he paid $70,000 too much for it then just to be one of the 1st to have it. *shrug*. Bet his salesman is a happy camper. If I only I had that kind of money to throw away.

Options on a porsche can add $$$ very quickly

I agree that's a beautiful car despite the interior, but how would you know it's scary fast? better be from reading because for your company's sake I hope you don't joyride and bag the shit out of the customer cars you're supposed to just be detailing.

True enough. Although from the Porsche site, the only options are painted rocker panels for $1K.

In any case. I'm sure they are dealer installed options that would cost a ton, from the pics though it looks stock.

on the webiste you have to click what area of the car you want to upgrade (list on the right)

[ninspeed]

the brakes are the big one.. and he did not get the brake option

[max_boost]

$250k seems quite the stretch but who knows.

[Redlyne_mr2]

Turbo rs? are you sure about that? RS or rennsport usually signifies their track ready cars unless theyve changed the way they market rs. Awesome car nonetheless. Good to see they are finally putting a pusher fan on the engine lid.

Ah your right, there are the different options. Bleh, clearly I didn't pay attention the 1st time I went through it. Sport Chrono Pack gives you Overboost at WOT. Interesting.... reminds me of the old Lotus Espirit that had a similar function.

Yeah, beat me to it. An RS is a special limited edition that from what i hear is finally coming to North America... GT3 RS I beleive?

[inline6turbo]

that is this car, even the manual i was reading for it said "911 GT3 RS"

[R-Audi]

I really dont think it is the GT3 RS.. you might wanna double check that

For one thing.. the GT3's are not turbo.. nor AWD. The RS is a lighter weight stripped down version of the GT3. (Hence GT3 RS)

[R-Audi]

Ahem....Porsche GT3 RS (http://www.rsportscars.com/eng/cars/911_gt3rs.asp)

[infamous]

the brochure that renee was reading was one that steve picked up from porsche, because he loves the GT3.....he just had it in the car for the trip over.

:drama: :rolleyes:

i lub this fob
