I was referring to my Audi S4 which does have the synthetic one (as does the M5)

 

Serge, I see you ordered the rear reflectors in body color. Did you get them from bumperplugs? Thinking of doing this to my guards red car and just wondering if you think it makes much of a difference since the reflectors are red to begin with?

 

Yes I got them from Eric @ Bumperplugs. Good job, perfect match.
It is true that the difference is not huge on a red car, but I still liked it better with the painted reflectors. Question of personal taste. I tried to find comparable before-and-after pics so that you have a better idea:

 

Much better - I like.

 

I'm partial to unpainted, but that's just me.

Regardless of reflector finish... that's one fine behind.

 

Unpainted or smoked, red is bad@ss



And this fine behind (the one on the left of course) does not only look good, it sounds amazing too

 

With the speed you go on that track, no one is going to be able to see them

I really like the painted reflectors. I think I'm going to have reflectors removed and filled when I get the rear bumper repainted.

 

Money, why are going to have the whole rear bumper repainted? Damage it?

 

Here's some evidence that the future GT3RS will be fully manual and very involving for the driver

I just came across the Ferdinand GT3RS. I think it has been out there for a while, already featured in Top Gear etc., but somehow I had never seen it before, so I thought I would share some info about the most ecological Porsche of all times. Better and lighter than the 918 or 919.




You had probably already seen it but just in case...

 

It looks like we might eventually get 'digital' 991's in good quality (console) video games

As you probably know, Porsche has given an exclusive license to Electronic Arts which means that you only have access to a few RUF's in Forza 5. Every once in a while, it seems that EA gives permission to others to feature P-cars in video games. There was for instance a nice Porsche stable available as downloadable content in Forza 4.

I just came across this trailer for a new racing game to be released in November (Project CARS). The footage looks almost to good to be true and contains 991'S (check the headlights at 0:20... and the complete car at 0:50).


Can't wait to drive my car virtually, foot on the floor and with zero concern about crashing it

 

Silly licensing rules.

 

You should consider sponsoring the sport exhaust in the car tuning options of Forza 5 when it will eventually include the 991. I can provide the sound clips

 

One of the stupidest article I have read on Jalopnik in a long time: http://jalopnik.com/how-porsche-crea...lem-1566542551

Here's a quick quote: "Thanks to the Turbo S, there is no distinct reason for the regular Turbo to exist other than as a budget version of its 'S' big brother. The Turbo is now a $151,100 budget car compared to the $182,700 S. I do love the absurdity of Porsche's model lineup. Put another way, this Turbo vs Turbo S similarity means that everyone buying a Turbo is just telling the world 'I only bought this Turbo because I can't afford a Turbo S."

I can personally perfectly conceive that someone can be very happy buying a non-S Carrera or a non-S Turbo. One more article stigmatizing P-car owners as show off 1 percenters and Porsche marketing as a bunch of stupid @ss evils.

 

Looks amazing. Hopefully it's available on ps4. If not I might have to buy an xbox just for one game.
