GT2RS hits LA Auto show

I like going every year to the LA Auto show but kinda forgot about the GT2RS until i saw it & wow !!! this thing is just badass it just had a presence about it displayed prominently in the Porsche area.I couldn't stop looking at it & taking pics & found myself going back to it all day .It had black wheels instead of the gold ones in all the magazines & in GT silver this things def gonna down as one of the baddest 911's ever,with 0-60 in 3.4 sec,now if i just had $256k laying around.

This new speedster was kinda cool too ,kinda old school looking with the Fuchs & black stone guards at $204k & the new R8 Spyder wasn't bad either.

Considering the 964 speedsters (400 produced) are selling for $75k+ like the one above I am not surprised by the price of the limited production 997 speedster.

I was at the Auto Show today and I must say that the GT2RS was really nice. I couldnt stop looking at it. ha! Some little kid was rolling his Hot Wheels car on the rear deck spoiler and I said something to him to stop because I felt bad for the car. LOL I was also wondering why they would let a car that exclusive out like that where people can touch it when that car is already sold out to the dealers?

Funny though that this one has the PCM & sound package on the option list, real hardcore guys want to leave it out for sure.

I thought the same thing as i watched a parent put there little kid on the CF hood to take a picture,I wanted to scream at them but held back.I would hope that one goes at discount,they should have had it roped off.

Just saw it in the flesh yesterday and what a car. I could do with an all black interior or black and yellow to match the brake calipers instead of black and red.
