I sure does, and it rusts in the salt air. But my point is carbon fiber looks all very trendy with a clear coat but will die an early death if it spends a lot of time in the sun. My SC is fairly much a daily driver, may sit in the sun all day, and has survived to be 39. It's metalic silver doesn't heat up much.

If you were to purchase a GT3 RS, would you add the Weissach package and magnesium wheel options to it?

It can eat crackers in my bed anytime. Even better with bits.

Be used for taking the dogs to the mountains, really use it - not save it for the next person. And in doing this it would see a lot of sun. The SC got driven to work each day and sat in the parking lot sun all day.

I'm sure the sun an UV is also bad for the rubber and plastic bits on the SC. I'm not sure that you'd take a GT3 RS to the beach with the dogs unless they are 2 small dogs that both fit in the front seat.

I'm all for driving a car. When I had my old '88 targa, I drove it to work rain or shine. I once had water on the hood between the headlights because I was plowing through some deep standing water.

But the GT3 RS is not that sort of car. I'd definitely drive it to work or just about anywhere, but it's not a hauler or good for more than 2 people. I think if I could afford a new GT3 RS, it would not be my first or only car. I'd probably have something else that would do a better job of taking the dogs to the beach than a car with a roll bar and no back seat, centerlock wheels, etc....

Again, this is NOT just a regular street 911 with stiffer springs and swaybars.

I saw a Grape purple colored One yesterday on Pacific Coast Hwy in Seal Beach, Calif yesterday

A neighbor drives by here in a more expensive machine quite often. It's painted green and has a yellow outline of a deer on it's flanks.
