996 RS ..... £205k.

The 996RS has the highest proportion of RHD cars of all GT3s (140 in total so just over 20% of production {mostly UK but that also includes Aussie, South African, etc..}). Consequently this means that the LHD 996RS is the rarest of all left hand drive GT3s (both numerically and by proportion of production) and left hook is the biggest market for them. For most other GT3s the proportion of right hook is well below 10% (the only exception being the 991). For contrast, the UK got only 4.5% of the RS 4.0 production, so those are very rare and thus bonkers money.
Make sense?

not really. arguably the ultimate RS based on pureness/ability/numbers combination. has literally everything going for it. looks purposeful too with narrow body and lw philosophy .....
real no nonsense car as close to the cup cars as one can ever get to. Everything after it is a compromise.
I thought it was a dog, a K9? Understeery and badly set up etc etc. It will never be worth anything because of its looks.real no nonsense car as close to the cup cars as one can ever get to. Everything after it is a compromise.
This is fun!

In the interests of full disclosure, I have to confess I have spent a not-dissimilar sum of money developing mine (non-RS) but my excuse is I couldn't afford a Cup and a road car so I had one car to do both jobs. Which turned out to be more expensive than having one of each. Doh!
but I guess loads of fun and tons and tons of satisfaction huh ?keep it lit said:
