Hi , Anybody on here know of correct up to date figures for build number of Gen 1 GT3 RS including colours, and how many imported to UK, more specifically how many green and orange did they build/ import. Been on GT3 RS registry and says estimate total of 400 ish in USA and rest of world 1900 ?

I thought there were 15 green ,
Orange and Black were very similar numbers and accounted for at least 75% of the UK cars, so that would suggest 35-40 cars.
There were a few White cars and AFAIK there were only a couple of Silver cars in the UK.

Seems strange how coveted Green is now when at the time no one wanted them despite the press car being Green

Never understood that either. I bought mine new here in Canada. They were not popular new but are also in demand here. We got four I believe. I intend to keep it permanently.

248 I believe 997 GT3 gen 1 to the uk.

Not many really, quite a Rare car, but not unicorn st rare like a 4.0 RS or 996.1 club sport which are 29 and 28 respectively.

God I'm a nerd...

There are/were around 120 gen1 RS in the UK roughly so 35-40 of each. But there are inevitably some casualties along the way and some exports.
It seems there are fewer than 10 green cars left and as a result they have become very very desirable.

White cars and Silver cars are also rare but command the same prices as the Orange+Black cars

There were 11 green gen 1 997 GT3RS RHD cars to the UK.

I turned down a mint one with low miles a few years ago at £75K because I didn't want to over extend my budget, Damm it..
