Pic Of The Week: New Porsche 911 GT3 R

It's a little bit racy...

Yes, it costs a steep 279,000 euros (before taxes) and no, you can't drive it on the road. But the Porsche 911 GT3 R is, we reckon, 100 per cent gorgeous.

We all feasted our eyes on the new racer at the Autosport/PistonHeads show yesterday, so we thought that today we would spread the joy via POTW.

So here it is in all its moody studio-shoot glory. Enjoy...

How do you pick your "supersize" size?

"Widescreen" isn't high enough res for my monitor and "Supersize" is a different aspect ratio - so I either get pixellisation or a car that looks like Terry Gilliam squished it with a giant foot...

ETA - looks like it's a supersize 4:3 image. Who even has a 4:3 monitor any more?

Sensational car

Sensationally bad graphics.

Never have I seen such a great car have it's sillouette distroyed by such bad decal designs. What is that block of white doing on the side?????

Never mind.

Wow that is stunning!

[AKA Nemo]

4 Litres and 480 Bhp 1200KG Wide-body, and the most powerful Naturally aspirated 911 ever built.
Nice

[xcat]

I would sell body parts for one of these

[k-ink]

I'm sure it's amazing on the track!

It is starting to look a bit like a fast and furious parody of itself though. I guess speed and grace are not natural bed fellows

Hell no I would accept straight away, But I would sell it without ever driving it or probably ever seeing it.
