Aren’t these affected by the same well publicised 991.1 GT3/RS engine issues? I guess as nobody drives them there is virtually no data on how reliable the units are. Anyone aware of any preemptive replacements on the R, or able to confirm if this model is affected or not?
If it’s mainly the looks you’re after, you could probably create something similar out of a base Carrera / S for not much outlay. Front and rear bumpers, wheels, lowering springs, stripes, interior retrim, bosh. For a lot less than a real R anyway. That in itself would be a very nice rare car, unique in fact. Just don’t put a “911 R” badge on it![]()
you could take a 991.1 GT3 with G6 engine and allow RPM tecknic to do the touring conversion
then add the stripes
or you could tape a banana to piece of card and sell it and use the money to buy the real thing
to be able to build a car to your needs sounds fantastic Harry
the older generations must feel totally alive on bumpy b roads as the modern cars tend to smother bumps and then jump rather than roll lean and squat?
