After looking at the pictures I needed a personal moment. I think the Red/Black GT2RS is my favorite car on earth. I don't know what it is about it but it's just unbelievable. If my funding situation ever puts me in a position for one of these I'll get one. Congratulations, you are very, very lucky and I am sure there will be no disappointments with that awesome looking car.

Should be on top of the list on the right.

Favourite quote from the clip. After explaining that Nissan has said that the GTR is faster than the 997TT around the Ring and that German test drivers can't drive. "The GT2 RS is Porsches way of telling Nissan, humbly but firmly, one last time, to go and f*** themselves."

Oh, and congrats on the RS!
You don't need to speak Swedish to understand the video. I'll translate some highlights. Holy $#*& this thing is scary fast, I am sick after eating all those brats and kraut, I hope porsche doesn't mind that I sharted in their press car, 458 F1 is for sissy's because real men switch gears, commented on the widow maker nickname.

I'm pretty sure he said all those things.

cc08gt2 since you have the hi res pictures would you mind zooming in on the gt2 rs logo on one of the black ones in your last picture. I have a black one on order and I have this fear that they did the logo's in gold. kind of looks silver in picture which is better. not much better but better.

I am assuming that I will have to send the RS for paint correction once I get it. Will also look at color matching the lower depending on how it works with the carbon Will have to see it. Anyways mine is black with black rims and interior. all the deviated stitching is yellow to tie in with the yellow brakes. GMG roll cage in Yellow will be added along with clear markers. did not get the all white tail lights. Not sure why i did not do that. I think I bought everything else

anyways thanks

I looked at it close. It looks like it is the White/Gold color. Actually, the default wheel color on all of them is White/Gold with corresponding graphics. I think they change the color possibly pending the wheel color. As an example, I ordered factory black wheels, and by graphics are black.

looked at all the color options and it looks like the logo's come in only black or the white / gold look. I am thinking I might have them deleted and then had painted in the same font in speed yellow - again to tie i with the brakes

the shop I use is hollis auto body. worth a look if you are east coast and have an issue

Do like some people did with the GT3 RS emblems. Wait until you get the car, and have a sign shop trace the logo and match to a font and size, and then they can make you any color you want.

Will let the shop make the call on what works best. Ordered the clear turn signals for the front this morning. I think they are 83 and change from the dealer
