Too much money me thinks....my OPC had one about six months ago...think it has 20k miles on it but was in fantastic condition and was up for £118k. So would have had an OPC warranty and obviously you’d expect OPC’s to ask top dollar and prices have gone south since.

[cayman-black]

Yes , love that!

8k miles only though, nice.

[MrVert]

That's definitely a bit toppy, paying for the mileage I suppose.

Would rather have a 997.2 GT3 for £100k.

Well not that one with sofas obviously

Been a couple recently with CS package for £100k.

The 997.1 GT3 RS had no more power than the GT3, a 3.8 7.2 GT3 CS would be my choice at £100k.

No idea about values, but I'm sat in the showroom with that orange car now and it's in very nice condition...

Don't know if it's the same one JZM had for sale a while back which didn't sell. Similar price and mileage as I remember.

I think you may be correct.

Lovely car but these appear to struggle to sell.

Yeah I think the fact it has the same engine as the regular GT3 is an issue....and I think the .2 is a better looking car if I am honest and a car they did improve more over the standard GT3.

2RS is at least £20K more. 2 gt3 is nice but it hasn't got those special two letters.

Mind you all RS,s seem to be struggling right now, TOP555 have had there 991RS since last June.

I can only see 1, also doesn’t the 991.1RS
also suffer the chocolate engine issues, not as bad as GT3 but still susceptible to breaking !

If it was Viper Green i might have to sell a couple of cars, remortgage the house and go on the game to find the money for it, Orange not for me though. Only 11 Viper RHD UK C16 cars made though so very rare.

Bought mine new in Canada,...we got three in Viper. Was not a popular colour at the time. Still have mine:

That is wonderful, my all time dream car since I saw one in 2007 at Spa.

I had a 997GT3 vanilla version which was fantastic but I've always yearned for the Viper RS. One day maybe.

In the mean time I do have this to help ease the torture,

Seen Redline have 991.1RS at £130k (albeit no front axle lift and 35k miles).

Are the 997.1RS drivable on UK roads - speed humps and the odd car park ramp etc? Look too low to me.

- it is VERY low. I am on my sixth splitter, the rest is fine. However, you have to treat the front splitter as a consumable if you have to descent into indoor parking. Speed bumps are OK is you go over them as 5MPH. I had a 7.2RS with the front end lift. Made a huge difference.

[HokumPokum]

I have a 7.2 RS with no lift and I live in london. You can't go over bumps at speed but otherwise it's fine. and after 10 years I'm still on the original splitter.
