Porsche 911 (996) GT3 RSR
Based on the current 911 GT3 RS, a particularly light and
sporty derivative of the 911 GT3, the new GT3 RSR is designed to
comply with the A.C.O (Automobile Club de lOuest), the FIA-GT
and IMSA (International Motorsports Association) as well as VLN
(Veedol Langstrecke Nuerburgring) regulations. Porsche decided
to build the new GT3 RSR after analysing the A.C.O. and FIA
regulations in a specification which allows a minimum weight of
1,225 kilograms (predecessor: 1,125 kgs) and permits the tyre
width to be increased by two inches to now 14 inches. 35
kilograms of the required additional weight may be placed as
ballast in the vehicle, contributing to a lower centre of
gravity.
These 3 cars are works of art, not
die-cast. The body lines are so smooth, the paint is flawless.
The fit and finish is far superior to most all die-cast I have
seen. Again, Auto Art has done a masterful job with its
rendition, like many of their other die cast this one is top
notch.
The interior of this car is a Disneyland
for your fingers as well for your eyes. I spent a good ½ hour
the 1st time I looked inside and then another 20min
the next time, it is packed with so many small details.
The car come in many different paint
layouts, these are my favorite ones. I hope you are like me and
get more than one for your shelf , I hope to get them all…….
With kind Regards
