Without a doubt. . . Subzero.

very very cool, bordering subzero... but for that to happen, it'd have to prove at least something, and so far it simply hasn't... So far we've only got the specs and pics to judge it on, also imo the weight loss compared to the "regular" GT3 is too small...

SUBZERO for me - in WHITE

996 SZ
997 Uncool, its the same fucking car just with better performance. Doesn't mater if its super fast it does nothing for me

to me its Subzero.
the color combination orange and specially black, rims, mirrors , and the way it shows totally amazing.

It's cool, but lacks the additional X-factor to make it subzero.

SUBZERO!!!

The only 911 997 I would buy ( just like the normal GT3 )

Subzero, both the 996 and 997 GT3 RS.

The ultimate Porsche for me

Sub!

a GT3 RS in any year is SZ....
but....

as a future owner has told me, the widebody makes a HUGE difference!

great car, all that can be said has been said

Sub-zero! Iconic Porsche - a driver centric car like the CS for Ferrari. Tons of race pedigree to boot.

Good news is that this is coming to the US unlike the 996 GT3 RS. 8)

Superb looking car. Should be the business on a race track and road.

I am Ferrari fan so keep the following in mind when you read the next comment - I think the 911 seems to have hit a ceiling with the 996 and 997. Take the last couple Ferraris: 348, 355, 360, 430 - every subsequent release had a bigger engine and was more powerful than its predecessor by a significant margin.The mid-engine layout provides a lot of room in this regard. The weight of the cars have not increased that much. In fact the 360 is lighter than the 355 while 430 is marginally heavier than the 360.

Looking at the tight confines of the 911 trunk I think Porsche cant really increase their displacement beyond say 4.0 litres. They have to resort to turbocharging to get some decent power out if it - 500hp plus. This will ruin the drivability of the GT3 which prides itself for its tractive engine with scalar power increase.

Having said that it is very impressive fact that Porsches make excellent use of all the power the engine room makes. A Porsche with 350 hp can keep up with a Ferrari with 400hp.

996 gt3 rs is sz but this one is more than cool less than subzero for me. I dont like this colour combination
