RS first drive

Took her home today. Have 54 miles total. Cuts the road like a razor. Still in sensory overload. What a suprise when not in sport mode to hear the exhaust change at 4000 rpms. Saw a 996TT speed up from behind just to see what was ahead in traffic, gave me the thumbs up. Even while still in break in mode the car is everything I had hoped it would. The painful 1000 miles starts now.

It almost did. At the last min Bob K called me and wanted to go along. I went to get him at work(bringing the turbo in for a bit of work) he said he needed about ten min to sort some things out. GT3 RS Deliverus Interruptus set in.

Front brake disc carriers

Congrats and best luck!

Note the front brake disc carriers are not stainless as the on Turbo (pccb) / GT3, or the rears on this vehicle. Looks like phosphated aluminum?

Car is awesome, very sharp handling & great exhaust note. Before seeing it in person, I thought that the colors might be too bold. Not now!

Pumpkiin is coming in may to chase "Kermit" around the track

Un-Real, that car is amazing.

Quick question, are color matched calipers an option? I'd be interested to see if that would be "to much" or not.
