Default The GT3RS Paint-to-Sample Collection

We are excited to present four additions into our private collection.

Among ~1,500 examples of the 997.2 GT3 RS 3.8 delivered worldwide, 612 examples were built for the U.S. and Canada. Out of those, only 46 were PTS.

We have the following 4 examples:

1. RS Green- #WP0AC2A91BS783602. RS Green was one of the communication colors of the 997.1 GT3 RS. One of two North American cars in this color. With 80 miles, this is the lowest mileage PTS example extant.

2. Riviera Blue- #WP0AC2A96BS783255. One of six North American cars built in this color, and the lowest mileage example at 2,522 miles. Cosmetically modified with Porsche Motorsports OEM parts at Pfaff Motorsports in Toronto before delivery to its first owner. This work included adding factory decals, painting all red trim to black, body color interior trim pieces, and ROW OEM half cage painted body color.

3. GT Silver Metallic- #WP0AC2A94AS783754. One of five North American examples in this color, and the lowest mileage example at 1,850 miles. This car has never been publicly seen or photographed before.

4. Meteor Grey Metallic- #WP0AC2A92BS783365. Meteor Grey Metallic was introduced on the 997 generation. With 1,088 miles, this completely original example is the only one in this color for North America. This car has never been publicly seen or photographed before.

There were 3 RoW RS 4.0’s in Meteor Grey. Two are in Europe (one has accident damage) and the other in the Middle East. There was a Slate Grey Metallic 3.8 RS. That one was totaled during Hurricane Sandy in 2012.

Those Riviera Blue and RS Green examples are really something to see. I would wager that they are even mightier to view in person of course!

Merry Christmas, and thanks for sharing!
