I agree with Joshie. It´s a fantastic car but the painting :thumbsdown:

Even the wheels in that red or blue color are :thumbsdown:

Also available with Blue and White!!!

Evo tested one in Blue/White at about 90k on the road.
Well each to their own as they say.

The white one with blue bits looks crap too IMHO. What is it with the white colour - no one buys white cars these days, do they? :roll: :lol:

Porsche obviously think people will.

I guess it's a bit like Marmite.. You either love it or hate it!

Id have the Blue/white tomorrow if I could.
Got to be the youngest here?

To my eyes its deliciously retro. Not retro in the way that Rover and Jaguar try and miserably fail to be, but its full on Suzy Quattro, The Sweet and Wizzard retro and it succeeds brilliantly.

Really uncompromising track vehicle though. Much more so than something like a Noble. Fits the word "awesome" admirably. :thumbs:

And because of that price tag, will make a good buy in a decade! :(

Does anyone know, which car is faster on the track, the GT3RS or the Turbo but with the factory 450PS kit?

I suppose that the GT3RS is faster, Am I right?

Dry circuit then even a "humble" GT3 is going to show the X-50 the way round any circuit. Probably a wet circuit too. GT3RS is simply in another league.

Wet public road, and probably a very different story though.
