Jumped in the car last night, went for a drive and saw this:

Equally badass, in a completely different way. No press conference, no announcement. Just showed up.

At this point I'm just talking to myself here, but in other news, the politics subforum at m.net sucks balls (which I knew, so it's my own fault for reading a thread there). If you're going to go online and whine about having to clip coupons after you lost your job, wouldn't you take the 2010 model year car out of your signature line? Nobody seemed to happy when I pointed that out.

Ah ha ha ha ha. I LOL'd when I re-read that. I meant a Miata with just a GReddy kit on it (essentially stock, bah ha ha ha).

If that is a GT3 then there is too much paint on that body, it is the wrong color, the graphics are wrong, the rotors are an incorrect material and whoever owns that car removed the 4-point factory cage for no reason. Fake GT3 FTL. The front fender gives it away the most.

mgeoffriau 08-20-2010 02:47 PM

Well, that and the fact that there are no left-hand drive GT3 RS's.

Except the ones manufactured for sale in North America and wherever people drive on the right side of the road... There's one for sale at AutoHaus VW/Porsche in the city here.

mgeoffriau 08-20-2010 03:48 PM

Gt3 != gt3 rs

mgeoffriau 08-20-2010 03:50 PM

Wait, WTF. Wiki is wrong about the RS, and the Porsche website DOES show this paint/graphics combo:

E-NA6CE 08-20-2010 04:02 PM

Yeah, but it should have decals on the right front fender and rear left fender, which it doesn't. It should also have carbon ceramic discs, which it doesn't. It should also have a Porsche 4-point rollcage, which it doesn't. And I'm still iffy on the amber side markers.

E-NA6CE 08-20-2010 04:05 PM

Those brakes should be the same as these ones, since they are identical braking systems. The ones on the car above are way too shiny to be Porche's ceramic rotor (unlike these, which are still not that shiny with a flash on the camera) unless they've been swapped.

mgeoffriau 08-20-2010 04:14 PM

Nope, check the Porsche website. Ceramic brakes are an option. Decals match exactly. Not sure about the cage, can't remember if I saw one or not in the car.

FRT_Fun 08-20-2010 04:28 PM

Didn't know Porsche riced out cars.

Really? They're an OPTION on the GT3 RS? That's gay. Huh, you learn something new every day. What the hell is Porsche doing? It's supposed to come standard with ceramic brakes and a 4-point cage and the typical fender decal. Gay. I'd still rock one though. Sexy car.

Doppelgänger 08-20-2010 06:57 PM

You're a complete fucking moron....just stop typing. It's a damn 997.5 GT3-RS. D U H...everyone and they're blind sister knows that....except you.

Yellow brakes - PCCB...red = standard.
How the fuck did you miss the mono-lug wheels?
Not all come with the roll bar.
What the fuck do you mean by "too much paint"?



Well...go ahead and keep typing so I can keep making fun of you....or go back to playing with HotWheels and watching too much Top Gear.

SlideRuler 08-20-2010 07:01 PM

stripped the PS tension bolt. Soooo now I have no belt on and the steering is ass.

Fun fun. Anyone know how to get at this stripped-ass piece of shiz? I've tried c-clamps and other types of pliers and smaller sockets and wrenches. Nothing's working.

Doppelgänger 08-20-2010 07:13 PM

I'm sure your dick-sucking skills would allow you to get it out by mouth....

GT3 or not that paint scheme is horrid.
