Ultraviolet 2016 Porsche 911 GT3 RS Catches Fire - GTspirit

Three images of a 2016 Porsche 911 GT3 RS catching fire have surfaced online. As evidenced from the photos however, it seems as though this 911 GT3 RS painted in the special shade of purple dubbed Ultraviolet, was saved from catching fire when an electrical short occurred on a post-production mounted material. This is believed to be the first fire-related incident for the new 911 GT3 RS and comes on the back of the ‘regular’ 911 GT3 being recalled last year due to fire risks. Porsche ultimately replaced all the engines of 2014 model year GT3s. Source: gtspirit.com
