996 White/Red White/Blue GT3rs's I've been wondering some info about these, I have yet to see one in real life/pics of one in the US, all the ones I see are overseas, im a n00b when it comes to this. Can anyone give me some info as far as production numbers and quantity of them in the US? I'm in love with the color schemes This one is my fav http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...996_GT3_RS.jpg |
Great pic, I've always loved both color schemes on the 996 GT3. The reason you haven't seen a US Spec one is because they never allowed them into the US, I believe due to not having passed crash regulations of the US (not that they wouldn't pass, but they didn't do enough testing). This is similar to what happened with the E46 M3 CSL. But the 997 GT3 RS was allowed into the US. Sorry, I don't have the production numbers, but I'm sure someone here does. |
no wonder, it makes sense. |
one of my fav color combos as well. the white/blue looks great also. it's a ROW car, not available in the US. here is one for sale in monaco for 140K -> Classic Driver - CARS FOR SALE - Cars |
996 Gt3 Rs I believe this model was not released for the US Market ... The 996 RS was offered in Only White .. with Red OR Blue decals The total production of Blue units with PCCB were only 27 |

There are a couple here in the U.S. My Dad's friend has one. |
I'm not sure if you read my post, but I wasn't suggesting that they wouldn't pass crash regulations on account of safety, but because they didn't fully partake in all of the tests for the RS. Not saying this is definitely the reason, but it is at least the reason they didn't bring the CSL into the US. |
There was second hand White/red when I picked up the cayenne too bad I didnt get it because it was priced slightly more than a new C2S. |
One of my all time favorite cars!!!! :respekt: |
