Anything other than sub-zero is a write-off

and too this day few of you know how to use the cool wall.....

Its not about perfomance, or looks or colour or wings or no wings...


Its just about "cool".....the vibe it gives off when you look at it.


And its a subzero car.

Just cool, not really sub-zero.

a cool for me too.
an impressive and fast car anyway, but i think they could have done more in weight reduction... that's why it only gets a cool.

Classic 911 shape, white for the body colour and blue/red for the rims. Cool.

Subzero, because its an appalling ride in normal use (track set-up) and superb on the tracks, that means you don't see it that often! And that weight reduction, just that makes it subzero alone, stripped out trackracer for on the streets!

Well for me this is easy, it's an easy Subzero.

I remember when i first saw the GT3RS i thought it was a little crazy, maybe even a bit stupid

But as time went on i really started to dig the vehicle's looks. It really does look stunning, much more than the standard model in my opinion. Of course it wasn't just the looks which gave me complete respect for this car, it was Sport Auto supertest. It did amazing in that test completing 1.3g's in the corners, lapping the 'Ring in Under 7:50 and finishing a lap at the Hockenheim in 1:11.8, which i don't have to even say is extremely fast, especially considering the Zonda S and Gallardo both have identical times. The data just shows the 996 GT3RS is a serious drivers' car, in a serious Porsche kind of a way.

Cool. I feel like over Sub Zeroing cars is like over-using "I love you". Only an elite group should be considered Sub Zero and this car is still only going to be recognized by babes as a Porsche. So when they sober up and realize that it's not a Lamborghini the pants will go back on.

Without a doubt Subzero. The return of the RS definitely warrants the rating.
