Porsche GT3 RS Current State

A few weeks ago I posted some pictures of my friend's new Porsche GT3 RS. The car was brand new then. The car has been selling for about $180,000. He's doing some modifications to the car for and up coming race in New Zealand. Here's what the car looks like today. Also is a picture of his 997S he used in the race last year. He's also doing some work on that car and has it tore up.

If it was my car it would make me almost cry to see it like that. Taring the car up and putting a bunch more money into don't seem to bother him. It's costing him $3,000 to fly just the car one way to New Zealand for the race.

He's in the works of trying to make a deal on a 2008 Porsche GT3 for me. It could even happen today but nothing is for sure until it happens. The car is up in Maryland. If he does make the deal I'm undecided if I'm going to go get it with my enclosed car trailer or truck in down to Florida. They are only importing 100 GT3's into the US for 2008. At this point they are all spoken for and you can't even order one. The car is yellow and has some nice options including ceramic brakes. The only thing I'm not sure about is the suede seats.
