Finished in Shark Blue with contrasting white accents, this 2023 Porsche 992 GT3 RS features a naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six engine paired with a 7-speed PDK transmission. It comes equipped with Black leather and Race-Tex interior upholstery, the Weissach Package, Front Axle Lift System, Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB), LED-Matrix Design headlights in black, Exclusive Design taillights, the Bose Surround Sound System, Ambient Lighting, illuminated matte carbon fiber door sills, sun visors and seatbelt outlet trims in Race-Tex, a Porsche-crested center console lid in Race-Tex, instrument dials in white, rear ParkAssist, traffic sign recognition, a fire extinguisher, and more. Cared for by one owner, this GT3 RS is now being offered for auction out of California with just over 2k miles showing on the odometer.
This GT3 RS is finished in Shark Blue with custom white side model designations and painted 20”/21” lightweight forged magnesium wheels. Factory options include LED-Matrix Design headlights in black, Exclusive Design taillights, under-door puddle light projectors, rear ParkAssist sensors, yellow ceramic brake calipers, auto-dimming mirrors, and rain-sensing wipers. The car was also optioned with the Weissach Package with a painted hood and roof, which adds carbon fiber mirror caps and window triangle trim. The seller states the car had a minor incident on a racetrack that resulted in curtain airbag deployment and a salvage title. The damage is said to have been superficial and has since been professionally repaired to factory specifications along with color-matching the front fascia insert. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a full CARFAX report.
The Black leather and Race-Tex interior is accented by silver stitching and seatbelts, matte carbon fiber trim, a painted roll bar, and optional instrument dials in white. Equipment includes full carbon fiber bucket seats with Weissach headrest logos, optional Race-Tex sun visors and seatbelt outlet trims, a Race-Tex center console lid with an embossed Porsche crest, illuminated matte carbon fiber door sills, aftermarket Sabelt safety harnesses, pedals and footrest in aluminum, and a steering column casing in leather. The car was also optioned with the Bose Surround Sound System, traffic sign recognition, Ambient Lighting, and a fire extinguisher.
Rated at 518 HP and 342 lb.-ft of torque, the naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six engine drives the rear wheels through a short-ratio 7-speed PDK transmission and a Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV+) limited-slip differential. The car was optioned with Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB) and the Weissach Package, which adds upgraded carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) anti-roll bars, coupling rods, and underbody paneling on the rear axle. Standard equipment includes rear-axle steering, PASM Sport Suspension, the Chrono Package, and a lightweight stainless-steel sport exhaust system with twin center-mounted tailpipes. Routine service is said to be up to date.
This sale will include a salvage title.
The seller would like you to know: “This car is a one-owner vehicle that was driven on the track a couple of times and one time had a mishap minor superficial damage, including airbag curtain deployment. With that and the diminished value, it was deemed to be a salvage title by the previous owner. Everything was brought back to 100% original besides the white wheels and some color matching on the lower facia of the front bumper.”

Do we have some undercarriage and repair-process images?
What I don't understand about this car is why the original owner didn't keep it. It's still the amazing car it was before the, um, incident, and he's already tracked it, so why not enjoy it?

@X98boardwell you missed them. Read all comments before commenting something that could disrupt someone’s auction.
@X98boardwell they listed links to 3 30 minute videos showing the entire process being fixed.
Crazy bid on a salvage car IMO. Impressive quality of work for sure, but the title brand is always "visible"...
@targatarga everything is to factory spec and there is no evidence of an accident whatsoever.

Are all the gaps upfront within the fenders in the hoods straight? any visual remnant from the accident to the naked eye?
@AlexFT did not go on gravel. The undercarriage has absolutely No damage.
@X98boardwell all three links to the videos are down bellow. Extremely detailed videos of all the work being done on the car.

@clubhouseautostorage, is there any info on over revs from track time, even though low mileage?
@Forza072, great info and thank you. Did others know these videos were available before today, did I miss those links or description as to where to find them. I am watching now. Cheers
@X98boardwell If you go to the LNC COLLISION YouTube channel, you can find all the information about this specific car. Vlad does absolutely fantastic work!
agreed @x98boardwell
I love how they say minor damage then only snow a brief couple snapshots of the damage on video. No underbody photos, no photos of when body work was being done or when panels were removed, etc. If it was completed to the highest standard, why not reveal more. This does not help any buyer to bid confidently unless they are getting a bargain when the hammer drops on the last video.

@gdynet11 you are more than welcome to get a pre purchase inspection!
@Popsgarage yes, the window sticker is in the photos!
Do you have window sticker available?
Is it to late to get a Porsche certified inspection?, I'll cover cost. Dream Track day machine.
Thanks.
Also I have received notice not to drive one my Porsches that I sold, unclear of which one, does this car has that problem?
Am I correct in assuming that Porsche is still responsible for the window recall on this car, even as a salvage (once they release a solution)?
@ClubhouseAutoStorage thanks for the feedback
@Synaptic_Gap Yes the alignment has been checked.
@Synaptic_Gap The exhaust had minor damage on the left side, so we ended up installing a new exhaust. This wasn’t shown in the YouTube repair video because the footage was missing during editing. If you’re interested in the vehicle, we can arrange for a PPI (Pre-Purchase Inspection) at any local Porsche dealership for your peace of mind.
@Synaptic_Gap All the plastic aero parts that were scraped up were replaced with new OEM parts.
@Turbos7903 Yes, a salvage title car can be registered in all 50 states, provided it has been repaired and passes the necessary state inspections to receive a rebuilt title. This process ensures the vehicle is roadworthy and meets state requirements. Additionally, we can provide all the proper paperwork required for any state.
In terms of insurance, State Farm currently insures this car with full coverage for $250 per month, with no issues.
@Synaptic_Gap Currently, the car has a salvage certificate. However, we can obtain a rebuilt title here in California without any issues if necessary. The process includes repairing the vehicle to meet roadworthy standards and passing a state inspection. Once completed, the salvage certificate is converted to a rebuilt title, allowing for registration and road use. Additionally, we can provide all the proper paperwork required for any state.
@clean_machina For salvage title cars, the factory warranty is voided in most cases, regardless of the vehicle’s age or mileage. Manufacturers generally refuse to honor warranties on vehicles with a salvage title due to the uncertainty about the extent of the damage and repairs.
If you’re looking for coverage, third-party extended warranty providers might offer plans for rebuilt title vehicles, though they often come with stricter terms and limited coverage options.

Has the alignment on the car been checked as a precaution given that the strike was hard enough to trigger the side airbags
Can a salvage title car be registered in all 50 states? How does insurance view this? Insurable?
Warranty status?
Does the car by change have a "rebuilt" title or is it still considered salvage?
How were the plastic aero parts that were scraped up repaired?
What was the problem with the exhaust leak and how was it fixed? Not clear from the YouTube repair video.
@ClubhouseAutoStorage Thanks for the links.
You were the first and only owner besides the shop that bought the salvage title. Got it. Thanks.
@HelpMeHelpU please see the three video links I posted in the comments for all the detailed documentation of the rebuild process!
@dgrobs yes the car still shows one owner on Carfax because the body shop purchased the car under their dealer inventory to repair and sell it.
Also I posted all three links to the videos of the car being rebuilt from start to finish with lots of detailed documentation!
@the.car.museum please see the YouTube links I posted as a comment for all the videos of the damage and the walkthrough to repairing the vehicle.
@420Time yes the car still shows one owner on Carfax because the body shop purchased the car under their dealer inventory to repair and sell it.
@siliev1991 yes it was on the track. Please see the YouTube links and read the full description for all the info.
Based on the fact that there was a number decal on the front, I'm assuming it was a track accident, and in that case you have to give a thumbs up to the previous owner for actually using the car for what it was meant for, not just sitting in storage waiting to resell for a profit.
Here are the links to the entire process of the rebuild.

@dgrobs, 1 owner vehicle meaning the first owner bought the car around August of 2023, the incident happened around April of 2024. Car repaired and now for sale again and ready for Owner 2
Porsch claimed these to be the king of all downforce and my guess is drivers are thinking its a rails and it still can go off track or road if you push it that much more or poss wet road or track.
Would Interesting to see some pictures of the accident
This is off the charts stunning spec !
Beautiful car, but curious, how is it a one owner car if it had a previous owner?
Did I misread the sellers comments below or does “one owner” mean something different than I think it means? Thanks
Would love to have another track toy.
Also, any specifics on the damages and repair, possibly video?
@WCRookie99 Link to the repair video?
Please post detailed photos of the damage and a detailed invoice for the repair work.
Does the branded title status impact the Porsche warranty?
Do you have any pictures of the accident before you repair it.
There’s a video of the damage and the entire repair. It’s actually awesome video and you see everything and how they fixed it. Probably never should have been “totaled”. I’m starting a repair business tomorrow!
Can you provide photos of the damage?
