He also had the Brake Calipers painted in the RS Orange to match the wheels. It looks great. I'll be able to send photos in the near future if needed.

Richard was my sales guy. Stand up guy. It is nice to work with a dealer that doesnt' try to markup everything that is a hot item for the moment. They do no mark up cars over MSRP ever.

Great price and sales person..

Beautiful RS! Is there anyway to prove "never been tracked"?
It is pretty unusual for a GT3 RS owner to not track his/her car though.

What would be the point of proving the car has never been on track? Does this diminish the value of the car some how? It's a RS for heaven's sake. To not take it on the track is a crime. Buy a Lexus if no track time is so important to you.

To most serious buyers,a no track time GT3 RS would worth more money for sure. If the GT3 RS was a "track only" car for the previous owner, it would certainly diminish the value of the car for people in the know. I know people who use high performance cars as "show car "or "weekend cruiser", and they never really driven their cars hard or track them. They just switch cars often like their fancy dresses and shoes.

However,there would be a lot more wear and tear after a few track days than normal street driving.

Would you pay 30k over msrp for a low mileage GT3 RS that was taken to tracks like every weekend with heavily worn tires,pads,rotors,and even burnt clutch and couple of typeII over rev logged ? Think about the condition of the paint on front bumper and fenders without proper protections after several track days.

No track time is pretty important simply because you could replace your expensive tires,rotors,pads and even clutch a little later,so you can enjoy more track days without worry about replacing them soon after you bought the car off the previous owner.Stock PS Cup tires(R-compound) will be worn down pretty quickly on track. If the previous owner did not take care of the car after extensive track use, you are facing more troubles and repair/maintenance bills.

Since most RS owners are car enthusiast and are more likely to take their cars to tracks, a no / low" track mileage"RS would be more valuable than those with high "track mileage". I think it makes perfect sense.

Thanks for the kind words Alpine 997. This car was owned by one of our very good clients with a list of cars that would baffle your mind. 5,300 miles is a lot of miles for him to drive in one car given his selection of available rides. To answer the question there isn't really any way of telling if a car has been tracked or not if it was taken care of. With steel brakes sometimes you can see stress fractures coming from the drilled rotors, top that with a lot of pitting (road rash)on the front end of the vehicle. I think Freeman summed it up nicely. The next owner of this car very well may intend to track it all the time but people in general like to know they where the first ones to do so.

This listing shouldn't last long with the price point. Anyone serious about the purchase can email me directly at rjennings@hennessyporsche.com
