I'm currently Porsche-less having recently sold both my 911's. I've decided my next car will be a 991.1 GT3 RS and ideally in a PTS colour. I'm curious who has one and in what colour - pics essential smile

You don't have to be selling one, I'd just like to see what members have gone for?

Have to say I'm also keen on Ultra Violet which is in plentiful supply so not the end of the world if I don't happen upon a tasty PTS example.




By way of a polite request....can we keep on topic and not sink to the depths of the "991.1 GT3-RS: GOOD TIME TO BUY...??" thread thumbup

Smart purchase. Gulf blue or mint green. You should speak to JZM they seem to know where all the PTS cars are wink
Gulf would be awesome - as would Mint Green (just sold a Mint GTS).

With one proviso...it would have to be in UV..It looks stunning in that colour and better than any PTS i've seen..One notable exception being Viper green which is one PTS colour i'd consider over UV..
Agreed....UV is my non PTS choice.

Really not a fan of Miami.

Are the others Riviera, Mexico and Voodoo?

The green looks great. Signal?

depends if you want PTS to be rare or not, most people have blue these days even with PTS and now with Miami blue.

So PTS in rareness red is the rarest as there is only one red RS :-)

I like slate or Viper not much else really as UV is a great colour for it.

Most are Fiat 500 washed out pastels which look rank imo.

Needs a bold none metallic colour. Red, Yellow, UV, Viper, Slate all look great maybe Voodoo at a push but I am off blues on all these cars, too common. most PTS look a bit meh ! these look great.
I want PTS to be rare and also look good - I like Guards but while it may be rare on an RS it's common in Porsche terms generally.

I'm actually a big fan of "washed out pastels" biggrin

I love this Jet Green RS...not sure about the interior.
That is fantastic! Couldn't live with the interior.

The OP is probably aware but Bolton have a Mexico Blue car with a couple of hundred miles on the clock for 215k.
Yep....and I do like Mexico....not so keen on the £215K price tag.

My favorite Porsche color is Signal yellow
There's definitely at least one UK rhd 991.1rs in signal yellow. A couple of others in racing yellow which is imo anyway a lot less nice a colour.
Signal Yellow would look good, as would Speed. Racing Yellow looks total hurl

Think I'll have to ring a few dealers next week to register an interest in a possible future PTS car - just in case they get something in and it disappears before getting to the showroom.

With UV looking so good it's hard to justify PTS.....then again, depends on the PTS smile

A Racing Yellow popped up on PH classifieds for a very short time yesterday afternoon. Private sale. A few too many miles for me, I think 9000 plus.

It was advertised as PTS but apparently Racing Yellow had a short timeframe of availability as a standard colour on the RS.





I'm still actively looking for the right RS smile

Ok let me get this right. You want a PTS, very low mileage RS and a low price?
If you're offering....?

Otherwise, what I'm prepared to pay is completely dependant upon the individual car.

Really like this...

https://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/...

But what I'm finding hard to get over is why you'd spec the stainless door sills and brushed console trim when carbon was standard? Then have carbon dash? Still....maybe I could live with it smile
