The OG 2.7 RS 'pacer' green and white colours look truly epic on the 992 RS. So glad Porsche revived this.
I preferred the original presentation spec they had for this.



Unfortunately marketing and accounting got hands on it and chintzied it, with WP, Mags, watch and special key, and it looks worse. Dollar extraction of the highest order.

What colour is that?

Would look lovely in gold wheels rather than black wheels (which I am not a fan of)
Arctic Grey (similar to Nardo Grey)......mine has the gold (magnesium) coloured wheels, yellow PCCB's and yellow stitching and accents elsewhere!

that sounds bloody lovely, hope you went for leather steering column, sun visors, inner door sills, those little bits at the ends of the dash etc (seriously I love all that, despite the pee taking on here)

Definitely agree with you on that "T".

The 992 RS was already a bit mad, with the frunk sacrificed to aerodynamics and so on. They'd already dialed it up to 11 and someone decided that wasn't enough.

Haha, good for Matt. Hopefully plenty of future videos when he gets it.

As if that fking Brummie couldn’t get even more annoying!

I’m from north Midlands and most of my mates are Black Country, so I have to say that.

Kudos to him. I think the RS is a very exciting car and I’m not easily impressed by ‘new’ stuff just for the sake of it being ‘the latest’.

I'm surprised he mentioned at least 4 times ' does it matter if it has this option for resale'... Sure that would raise a RED flag to a OPC

I am sure this chap has a long and supportive past with Porsche Reading/GB, purchasing much Pork in the past to earn an allocation of such a limited in demand vehicle.

Oh….

As in all OPCs there will always be someone who just missed the cut to get the latest RS allocation. I'm pretty astonished that the flipped ones are making between 550-600k Euros on the continent as overs never really happened there .
