Nice pics...lovely car too.
Hopefully when he gets his GT3RS he has the horrendous decals deleted.
Even then its an ugly thing.
Looks like Porsche gave the design brief to the work experience kid with instructions to make it as brash as possible by sticking on all the pointless carbon fibre aero bits he can find in the parts bin.

In Porsche's defense, there is not a thing on the RS that is not there for a reason..... usually for more downforce or cooling.

Indeed..for high speed tracks I'm sure they have the desired effect.
For Sunday drives showboating down the golf club, not so much.
In black it looks way better...as it hides all the stick on bits.

I guess its the massive GT3RS decals that really grate...its a brilliant car, everyone who knows cars, knows what it is....no need for those "need for speed" look at me everyone, stickers.
Whatever happened to subtlety and style.
Massive Porsche fan myself, had quite a few...if it makes any difference.

That's why they will sell you a GT3 or GTS. The RS is ... a Racing Special
