Eddie Van Halen's 2016 Porsche 911 GT3 RS can be yours for the low price of $220,000. The car has just over 15,000 miles, has a 4.0 Ltr. Flat 6-Cylinder, and has a 7-Speed PDK. I don't really know anything about cars, so here's my list of perks that may persuade you to buy this vehicle:
- Was owned by Eddie Van Halen.
- Has a Van Halen logo on it, which gives you +10 Van Halen.
- You can probably make a bunch of "Panama"-related jokes in it.
- Looks cool.
- Isn't black, which is nice since black cars can be a real pain in the ass to keep clean.
- Works, I think. I didn't drive it so I don't actually know. But I assume it works.
Here's what Stephen Becker Automotive Group had to say about the car, in the event my list didn't help.
"This is an extremely rare and unique opportunity to purchase a car currently owned by the greatest guitar player in the World, Eddie Van Halen. This vehicle was personally custom ordered from the Porsche factory and purchased new by Eddie Van Halen. You will be the second owner of this vehicle and it will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity (COA) personally signed by Eddie Van Halen.
"The Porsche 911 GT3 RS is an ultra-high performance car built for the street and track. The 4.0 liter flat six produces 490hp, 346 ft. lb. torque, accelerates zero to 60 in 3.3 seconds and has a top speed of 193mph.
"When Car and Driver writer David Curcurito asked Eddie what he loves about the car, Eddie responded, 'For one, it’s just so light. But really, it’s the handling. I don’t know how Porsche did it. We raced in the rain at Buttonwillow, which is my favorite track. We raced in the fucking rain and we never lost it, never spun out. BBI [Autosport] did my suspension. I set it up so you can feel it go and you can actually slide the damn car. It’s the first time ever I’ve been able to four-wheel-drift a Porsche. Every other Porsche I’ve ever had, I’ve spun them all. Well, every 911, anyway.'"
Anyway, buy the car here.
