Here we go then a selection of RS's straight out the box in 1995. Tim on Rennlist in Canada sent these over. Lets see if we can match up the Photo with the subsequent owners.

Would love to know what has happened to the guards red Clubsport. As mentioned before, I bought my first 993 rs from a dealer in 1999. He said one of the 7 uk cs was dropped at the docks whilst being loaded onto a ship. Written off but he thinks possibly repaired and then sent overseas.

What colour is the light purple? Viola? Never seen an rs in that colour.

 
Some great shots
Fairly sure the red cs went to NZ along with a red GT2
The violet car sadly died about 10 years ago,i actually had one of the doors off it.

Just to clarify the Red Clubbie is a LHD and was photographed at the Porsche Factory in Germany not in UK at AFN.
 
Thanks for the link Simon. I'm really interested to see current pics of the Midnight Blue car if it still exists. Rather unfortunate about the Viola example, sure was a stunner in the flesh.
 

Paul,

The viola car does look bloody brilliant.

I was not aware that special colours like Viola could be ordered for the 993RS but then I suppose Vic's Tangerine GT2 demonstrates taht as well.

Do you have any idea how many of the original 47 UK RHD cars still exist?

 
Factory order by a guy who ordered 4 Blutorange 911 s out of period . Audi rs blue gt2 was also factory order same era no prob just taken out the line so buyer had to wait a little longer...........................
