With all the Nurburgring lap time storm generated by the 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 and the 991.2 GT2 RS, certain aficionados might forget how awesome the 991 GT3 RS can be. There's no reason to fret though since we're here to address that.
And we've brought along an image that's 100 percent worthy of the eye candy status. We're looking at an example of the 500 hp machine that comes dressed in Paint To Sample Yellow Green - we'll tip our keyboards to the PTSRS Facebook page for this pic.

Since we don't speak German, we don't normally mention the names of Porsche colors as they come in the automaker's language, but we'll make an exception here, simply because gelbgrün sounds awesome.

Given the crazy color of the machine, the rest of the configuration is tame, meaning that we're dealing with silver headlight graphics, while the same color is used for the wheels.

Now, if you've reached this tale while being in the market for such a Rennsport Neunelfer, we have bad news for you. And that's because this machine, which is currently on display at Porsche Lyon in France, is not for sale.

So you might want to head back to the Porsche configurator and see if you can live with the new GT3, which, by the way, can one-upp the 991.1 RS on Nurburgring. While the latter needs 7:20 to complete the Green Hell task, the 991.2 GT3 can play this game in 7:12.7.

Then again, if you feel like you need the Rennsport aura in your life and can't find a low-mileage 991 out there, Zuffenhausen will have something for you next year.

That's when the 991.2 incarnation of the Porsche 911 GT3 RS is set to make its debut, with the machine potentially landing at the Geneva Motor Show in March. Meanwhile, here's the latest spy video of the naturally aspirated track special.
