We're back on the Porsche 911 GT3 RS topic once again, as we want to show you what happens when such a PDK bearer taps into the rich Zuffenhausen motorsport pedigree.
To be more precise, we're dealing with a Rennsport Neunelfer that has received a livery inspired from that of the Dakar Rally Porsche 959. And when the good old Rothmans theme mixes with a beater take (check out the details of the wrap), the car seen here has serious chances of becoming our favorite GT3 RS PDK.
While the design of the wrap comes fromCalifornia Florida-based artist Skepple, the second skin job was handled by Swedish specialist Wrap Zone. Nevertheless, this Porscha is getting its fair share of European roads, as the supercar has entered a road rally called Scandiera 2016.
The event, which kicked off a few hours ago, sees participants traveling from Stockholm to Monaco (you can see the supercar at the starting line in the first image below). And since this rear-engine coupe wears a Lava Orange coat underneath its wrap, you can turn to the image gallery on your right for a color sample (the photos don't show this particular GT3 RS, though).
It seems beater look takes on famous liveries are slowly, but steadily turning into a trend and since we had started getting used to the Martini approach, we're more than happy to see this new piece.
We feel the need to remind you how Porsche entered the Dakar Rally back in 1984, using the 953 test bed, a rugged terrain-savvy 911 that included the AWD system that would go into the 959 Dakar (seen in the last photo below) the following year. So we're talking about a double piece of heritage here.
And we wish history repeats itself - Porsche is rumored to bring back the high-riding, rear-engine theme with the next generation of the Neunelfer. Predictably, the yet unconfirmed development wears the Dakar tentative name and is part of a plan that will see Porsche kicking off a lifted coupe offensive. The action is scheduled to start with the Cayenne Coupe we recently spied.
We couldn't help notice how a new trend is building, one that includes what we've decided to call jportscars (jacked-up sportscars). Here's to hoping Zuffenhausen delivers.
