Vic, interesting stuff.....do you think it over priced at 80 grand....minus any discount you might get? If the GT2 conversion was done at the factory, then I don't think the price is that bad. I agree though that this car isn't going to flourish as an investment. But it looks OK compared to a new GT3 for the same price.
The white car puts me in mind of Pistonhead's Flamespitter's Riviera blue 993 GT2 Evo replica. It too was based on a genuine 993 RS CS. But he has spent a mint creating a replica GT2 Evo race engine (much more powerful than the non-Evo one), plus did the brakes etc etc. But I wonder what someone would buy it for? I'm sure getting one's money back would be a bit difficult.

Wud not dispute the quality or the expense to do it , Porsche Fac bills dont hurt [except ur wallet] with prices as they are its not bad value .............however remains a bitsa ............perhaps compare to Paul Mac Yellow car that went to Sambaman, last heard of in Leeds it was a 993 rs cs/ beautifully uprated to rsr spec and indeed seems to find buyers readily ..................when GT2 were gaily changing hands between £60 -80k ,no one wud ave cared now though anything cud happen .............its all quite heavy amounts of dosh to be buying replicas however good , the car at Gmunds road converted looks nicely done ................i guess what i am trying to say is why not buy an original while there are some around ,there ll always be a place at a price for these other cars .......................

I see what you're saying mate. [
] This white car is obviously a bitsa. But real GT2s are very dear. I suppose you pays you money, takes your choice......
But the white car at Gmund has doubled in price in a few months hasn't it?? []

I'll be there at the Premier Travel Inn, yes. Might not get there til 10pm on the Thursday night, if I go straight from work I could get there earlier I suppose. Definitely Chinese meal on Friday.
Got myself a room at the Inn for Thurs and Fri night......not sure what time I'll be up there, may try and join the Agent O convoy up the M40....got some stuff to sort in town but hoping to be there before 10 that's for sure.
Thomas site mostly sold, I know of at least 4 64RS heading to blighty this week bought from H&S...

I agree, I like the look of that. A good one to keep I would have thought.

I've been away from a computer for a couple of weeks [][] and have just had a look at GT Classics site. Does anyone know any details on the silver RS in RHD ( unfortunately now sold)? Is it the same one that appeared on Paragon's site .... for about 20 minutes?! Seem to remember that one having leccy windows... Looks like nice spec/ mileage
