Does anybody need a reminder about the 911 having its engine at the back? Of course not - people who care about cars know that all too well, while those who don't have such fetishes would be just as OK with the engine coming in a trailer behind the car. However, the GT3 RS you can see in this pair of photos brings us just that.
The Rennsport Neunelfer comes with the kind of wrap that gives it a beater look before the supercar even sets wheel on the road. However, the trick here is the flat-six representation at the rear of the track toy. So yes, we can call this a see-through wrap and we'll tip our keyboards to Team Interceptor 66 for the images.

And this Zuffenhausen machine is enjoying a lot of visibility these days, as we're talking about one of the cars that take part in a road rally called The Challenge 2016. The even sees tons of go-fast machines being driven across Europe.

However, if you think the wrap adorning this Porscha is outlandish, you should see what other teams taking part in the rally have come up with. For instance, as we showed you last week, a crew who call themselves Team Gendarmerie de Saint Tropez and runs a Ferrari 458 Speciale, as well as a Lamborghini Huracan, has turned to the now-classic police force imitation stunt.

Their supercars imitate the Dark Blue and Fluorescent Livery attire used by the French Gendarmerie. Heck, the two machines even pack special LED lights that could easily convince unaware drivers they are dealing with actual law enforcement vehicles.

We prefer the Porsche's approach, though, especially since this comes to top off a trend we've been showing you all year. Yes, we're referring to beater liveries on GT Porsches and, frankly, we were starting to wonder when somebody would come up with something better than the racing-scarred Martini theme.
