The RS is going to stick out no matter what with the huge wing and wild looks. I think Orange/Black is the sweetest look out there.

Thumbs up Go White!

I agree that all of the colors look great, and the point was made that the GT-3 RS will be remembered as orange or green. Kind of like the Brady Bunch with avacado appliances. The "real" cup cars are white...the street version should follow...it will always be classic. IMHO.

Whatever you do, dont go with white.
White looks just like a regular GT3. If you dress up the GT3 with the blue trim, its going to just look like the 996GT3RS, why would anyone want that?

Any of the 4 colours look hot in their own way. I chose silver, but like any of them except white.

If you are picking the color so that people will know you spent the extra money over the GT - 3 then I agree with the above post. You could also get a neon jacket that flashed "look at me".

I think orange/black, green/black and black/grey are the ways to go. Here's a black/grey one since it hasn't been posted. EDIT: Resized down below--Thanks Phoenix

Silver broing on RS (although I am usually a silver fan)...

I would do balck with white lettering/wheels for that unique look

Someone had a pic of a white GT3 with cobalt wheels that looked amazing.
Don't underestimate this thought....sometimes you do get tired of wild colours. I had a yellow esprit, 2001, and one of the reasons I sold it was that I grew tired of the wild yellow.

I vote for black and orange !

RufMD, thanks for the vote of support. I am near certain I am going for black. I just heard from my dealer, no PCCBs. I guess that leaves me money to buy the CGT seats

Porsche is not accepting PCCB order because they're running short on the parts. suck for RS owners as i'd assume most of them want to have it.

I agree that it should be a more extreme color. You should look through the old GT3 RS's and see if there are any color schemes from back then that people haven't done yet. I think white with red would look great like the the 996 gt3 rs had. if you're going to pick from the more typical colors id say orange w/ black accents.

This is my 5 min photoshop based on the blue one posted earlier. I think this color looks damn good on the new body. Painted the lip w/ a matching red stripe but im sure that would not last long

Seats are expensive, but closer to $5000 each. I can't believe Porsche wouldn't have reserved the PCCBs for potential GT3 and RS orders given the fact there are so few of those relative to the other models.
