Sounds like another winner!

That car means business. Talk about 'in your face'! Classic racing GPW, is it ?

[k9handler]

Yummy - gotta love the reversion to the old-style headlamps. Much better...

[Porsche virgin]

Two words. Holy cr@p!

[PorscheZen]

[ted]

Looks really low?
Does it sit lower than the old 996/GT3RSR version?

[Jim Smolka]

There is a picture of an orange one on cover of the July 2006 issue of Pano. Looks sweeeeeeeeeeeeet!

[Scooter]

WOW!!!

[Asjac]

I know I will hate myself, but what does it cost/how do you get one of those cars? Do you have to qualify to be able to get one or anything?

I know, I know...If you have to ask, you shouldn't be doing it.

[9elf]

Be afraid, be very afraid.

[William930t]

...if you are the competition!

[Shuie]

Looks like a modern 935/77

Water cooled crap.......

And that's why you are thinking about getting a 996?

[WydRyd]

Looks B@DASS!!!

The brake master-cylinders, clutch master cylinder and pedals have been pre-mounted to a sub-frame, which is then bolted onto the floor to gain stiffness and a lower center of gravity.

Sounds like how the pedals were mounted when 911s had floor-mounted pedals. I suppose when they changed to "hanging" pedals, the "pedal box" moved up to the underside of the dash?

The fender extensions look like the cut-up barrels they put on the BMW M3 GTR. It doesn't seem to have the integrated feel of the "widebody" Porsches are (were?) so famous for. 996 GT3 RSR's fenders didn't look this bad. I hope it's just a preliminary design.

in the DTM races it seems that the flares on the GT3RSR are about the norm.

I want one of the ultra rare air cooled 996's.
