Have been looking at this wild little ride and decided to get one.

Tuned one before and liked it, so thought I would try it again. Pretty nice finish on this car too.

These are good cars. I plan on doing a guide conversion and tire change. Nothing major, but it doesn't need a lot.

For those that have them, check out the interior a little closer. Plenty of detail that is impressive and shows that a half tray interior can do the job.

That's a good looking car Harry, glad to see you picked this one up. After how good you got my Falken one running you really needed to have one of these in your lineup too. :D

Awesome Harry! I've been looking at picking up a newer 997 GT3-RSR and this is very affordable too, glad you are doing a review. This is the rendition of the Porsche that won the 24 hrs of Nürburgring 2011. Carrera nailed it on everything. For me, I think the wheels need some type of blackening wash to look the part of that "as run look" for 24 hrs.

Cheers, Thompson
