    Its funny, I recognized the wall in the photo as soon as I saw it. The dealer in in West Hollywood/Beverly Hills on Robertson and usually deals with exotics.

    I know nothing on these RSs but if I have time I'll try and drop in to have a look.
    Cheers,

    Differences from original spec:

    Colour change - was supplied Bahia Red
    Ducktail - originally supplied with plain engine lid
    Under bumper rectangular foglamps missing
    Additional long-range driving lamps (above bumper) missing
    Electric windows now converted to manual (easily remedied)
    Alloy sill covers missing (easily remedied)

    Ride height looks weird (too high)

    Owners were asking $165K back in November. I wonder if this is the reserve now?

    I remember doing research on the '73 RS cars sent to Brazil. It was really odd in that all 15 cars were highly optioned, tourist delivery models for all those who care about such things.

    I am shocked that an RS would be delivered without sport seats!

    As I've posted before...I'm quite content to have a "lowly" 911S, one I know the full history of. RS's? Are there really any out there that haven't been messed with?

    Engine: Don't know

    If I were in the business of selling high-end sports cars, I'd put just a little more effort into that one. Not very impressive.
