The Porsche 911 GT3 RS PDK is the perfect mechanical embodiment of why one should never say never - after we brought you tons and tons of custom Rennsport Neunelfer stories, German tuner Techart brings us back on the topic.
And we're glad to bring the GT3 RS under the spotlights, especially since the track special has been gifted with carbon fiber goodies.
When describing Techart's work, we can safely say we're dealing with a few small changes that make a big difference for a trained eye. The list of elements that are now made form the wonder material includes the front splitter, the front wing air extractors, as well as the ornaments for the side-mounted air intakes - you know, the ones that may trick a profane into believing this is a turbocharged 911.
First of all, the bits and pieces mentioned above add to the diet the GT3 RS has been put on, helping the circuit beast get a bit closer to the 911 R, the lightest model in the line-up.
Then there's the visual part of the equation. One might be tempted to believe such small details don't matter all that much, but, in the world of GT3 RS owners, every little piece of the car is important.
In fact, this need for individuality is the reasons for which we've been able to show you so many custom incarnations of the machine.
Certain owners turned to the almost infinite choices offered by Porsche Exclusive's Paint to Sample catalog, which is how we ended up with cars like the Rubystone Red one.
Others preferred to hit the wrap side of the industry, but this is where the approaches can vary by a hefty margin. While certain GT3 RS drivers chose subtle approaches, other simply went berserk. And the wildest-looking RS we've shown you to date also happens to be the craziest in terms of the mechanical tuning.
And these stories seem even more special when you factor in that Porsche's GT division only delivers around 2,000 of this Neunelfers per year.
