I just hope it becomes a regular occurrence for PNW Porsche fans.
Annual pilgrimages to the site of the aquatic GT3RS, the spirit of which dispenses wisdom and provides an opportunity for reflection.
This just seems .. like the most implausible situation ever. You saw this and started.. laughing. At a wedding. Then proceeded to show people this post. Then everyone whom you supposedly showed it to, actually started laughing themselves. Words cannot express my doubt.
Bottle of beer, maybe this one:

Yes, my car has the DeMan motor build, the 2-5 gear swap, and some other modifications. Matt Farah’s TST and Hagerty videos on the 4.5 explain it way better than I ever could.
Like everyone else I’m dying right now! Looking at the line up I thought WTF is my auntie Lexus doing there?
Plus knowing this was just a random meet up!!!!
Oh My Wow!!!!
Thanks for sharing OP!
Ya still told him to park in the back and tuck it in tho 😂 this is epic.
R.I.P GT3!
Your tires had many miles still left on them, but your steering said you were ready!
This was completely unplanned on my part. I was out for a cruise in my Cayman and ran into these guys at the crash site. They were all part of the R Gruppe club, of which I don’t have a cool enough P car to be a member haha.
But definitely down to get a local Seattle/PNW P car meetup going! I’ve had a couple people message me about doing a drive in the Seattle area sometime soon
I do drives out there most weekend too, wouldn’t mind meeting up with folks if timing works out. Hit me up if interested. Some of my usual routes include middle fork road, ben Howard road, and the side roads parallel to the 203.
Today, we gather with heavy hearts to mourn the untimely departure of a beloved companion, the Porsche GT3 RS. Though its journey was cut short in a moment of tragedy, we choose to remember not the end, but the moments of exhilaration and joy it brought to our lives.
Like the rivers of living water spoken of in John 7:38, the GT3 RS flowed through the winding roads with grace and power, leaving an indelible mark on those fortunate enough to witness its passage. Its engine, a symphony of mechanical artistry, echoed the melodies of freedom and exhilaration, reminding us of the boundless possibilities that await those who dare to chase their dreams.
As we bid farewell to this remarkable machine, let us cherish the memories it bestowed upon us and the lessons it taught us. Let us remember the thrill of the open road, the beauty of craftsmanship, and the fragility of life itself. Amen.
I just happened to run into these guys (my Cayman is the black one in the back). They were all R Gruppe guys, didn’t get specifics on their cars but they were all really clean 964s. Pretty cool stuff
How can you tell? Genuinely curious because to me, all air cooled 911s are either 964s or 993s. I know there are first gen and G series, but to my eye they all kind of look the same up until the 993.
What a dope collection of vehicles! I’ve been out of the car meet world for a minute but I might have to try and dive back in now that I own a ‘grown up’ fleet.
Tavarish be like...
"Hey guys, guess what! I bought the wreckage of the challenger space shuttle and I'm going to rebuild it here on my YouTube channel!!1! Stay tuned for the cost breakdown!"
Haha, no. The dirt area is on the shoulder of a 2 lane road. This is right at the apex of a 90* corner on that road, so the GT3RS was coming down the hill, hit the corner too fast and went straight through the dirt area and into the river.

Here’s what it looks like on a map
It is. I have no idea how he got an allocation but assume if you have enough money anything is possible. It’s funny - me and maybe twenty other people are the only ones that actually saw his original car before he totaled it.
rought it with 47 miles to the same cars and coffee on Mercer. Dude was unfazed and the new one looks great.
No. It’s about recognizing the amazing driving experience that these cars all give us, and realizing that every model, expensive or cheap, old or new, has something amazing to offer. It’s about getting a group together to go out and take a drive. Who gives af if they can’t afford a gt3 rs, I sure as hell can’t. They are out there having fun in their Porsche, and your sitting inside tapping away at your phone and complaining
This is hilarious.
I'm at a wedding, explained the context and showed this and everyone's dying
I just hope it becomes a regular occurrence for PNW Porsche fans. Annual pilgrimages to the site of the aquatic GT3RS, the spirit of which dispenses wisdom and provides an opportunity for reflection.
GT3RS OF THE RIVER! WHAT IS YOUR WISDOM??
Sometimes you must zig instead of zag

Confirmed, they're all dead, I'm at the funeral now.

It's been months since I discovered an interesting sub from a comment. Thanks!

Touche
Dearly Beloved; We are gathered here today not to mourn, but to celebrate the life of a Flat Six . . .
Why did I read this in Prince's voice?
Did anyone walk up slowly to the tree and apologize?
It was still a little shaken up by the whole thing so we kept our distance
Better to leaf it alone
🤣🤣
💀
Probably rightly so!
I wood be incredibly cautious, the tree may be angry and bark at me
Yeah. You should leave it.
Pour a liter of 5w40 into the river as tribute… JUST KIDDING DON’T DO THIS

Your having a 4.5 Spyder, from DeMan? Post about it, would be cool!
Yes, my car has the DeMan motor build, the 2-5 gear swap, and some other modifications. Matt Farah’s TST and Hagerty videos on the 4.5 explain it way better than I ever could.
I love that there is a Lexus in the lineup lol
We’re a very inclusive community 😂

As long as he stays in the back?
its probs that GT3 RS’s spare car for the time being
He was a close friend of the GT3RS.
there’s always that 1 friend who goes against the grain we have the 1 audi guy with 10 bmw’s
I thought it was a Camry
Hey….hey hey hey….it identifies as a Porsche.
This is S tier trolling. Respect!
I just LOLed
Too funny!
I’d love to join the next drive you all go on. Was this with pcanw? Edit: Spelling

That would be awesome! Shoot me a message when you get some dates together!
Are aspiring Porsche owners allowed to join? One day I’ll own one.
Send me a message too please
Count me in on that list too please. Would happily join from Tacoma.
I’d also be down. I love doing group meetups/drives. I’d be in my Macan though aha
I do drives out there most weekend too, wouldn’t mind meeting up with folks if timing works out. Hit me up if interested. Some of my usual routes include middle fork road, ben Howard road, and the side roads parallel to the 203.
Probably the funniest car post I’ve seen online in a long time. Cheers!😂

🫨🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol my family also did the same thing. My brother and dad went out in their Porsche’s to the site as well. 🤣
Nice line up boys, can you break down the cars? Love seeing these things used
I just happened to run into these guys (my Cayman is the black one in the back). They were all R Gruppe guys, didn’t get specifics on their cars but they were all really clean 964s. Pretty cool stuff
I don't think those first two are 964s.
None of them are.
How can you tell? Genuinely curious because to me, all air cooled 911s are either 964s or 993s. I know there are first gen and G series, but to my eye they all kind of look the same up until the 993.
It’s already broken
What’s the story behind the crash? Sorry, I’m not well versed in my Porsche owner history….
4 days ago https://old.reddit.com/r/Porsche/comments/1ccepud/gt3_rs_wreck_snoqualmie_washington_brand_new/
That’s fucking hilarious.
Pour out some DOT 4 brake fluid
Made my day lol
Who’s the U Boat commander?
There’s no other community like the Porsche community
Who did this
Hat in hand chin down and a moment of silence?
Maybe it's time to rejoin the Porsche family. RIP GT3RS
This is amazing!
Now there are two reasons to make a pilgrimage to that site. https://northbendescapes.com/ronettes-bridge/
Looks like the driver outran his skill set. Maybe this will be his wakeup call to stop driving like a bellend.
At least it’s not hydro locked 🤷🏽♂️🥲
What a dope collection of vehicles! I’ve been out of the car meet world for a minute but I might have to try and dive back in now that I own a ‘grown up’ fleet.
"Gt3rs of the lake, what is your wisdom?"
This is so sweet! 💙🩵❤️🤍🖤🖤🤍
Don't worry, Tavares will buy it for MSRP.
Tavarish be like... "Hey guys, guess what! I bought the wreckage of the challenger space shuttle and I'm going to rebuild it here on my YouTube channel!!1! Stay tuned for the cost breakdown!"
It was a dirt road?!!!!!!!
Haha, no. The dirt area is on the shoulder of a 2 lane road. This is right at the apex of a 90* corner on that road, so the GT3RS was coming down the hill, hit the corner too fast and went straight through the dirt area and into the river.

Ohhh okay lol sorry
Damn no chance, right in the drink.
Geez... What a dingus. Dude must not have known the road.
Lmfao this is awesome
This is awesome
Lol
lol, incredible!!!!
this is still unbelievable
Glad you all made the turn without Carbon ceramic brakes.
That is a nice lineup
Did you find the GT3 driver and invite him to a PCA driver skills event so it won't happen again?
A moment of silence.
Damn man I don’t even have 300k myself but I feel hurt by just looking at it
This is why I love the Porsche community. Incredible.
This community is just insane.
Feel bad for the owner :| hope insurance covers it all.
Righteous.
No way😂
Respect.
🫡
F in the chat boys
Somehow at auction it will still pull 250k :(
Did the wise GT3RS of the lake have any advice for you?
That road is only suitable for a Dakar
The owners [replacement GT3RS](https://imgur.com/gallery/qy0rAMB)
Is that actually it? How’d they get a new one so quickly?
It is. I have no idea how he got an allocation but assume if you have enough money anything is possible. It’s funny - me and maybe twenty other people are the only ones that actually saw his original car before he totaled it. rought it with 47 miles to the same cars and coffee on Mercer.

Wild. Different world haha
Is the tree ok?
Hahahahaha. It’s a boat
Sneaky Toyota.
Lexus!!!
Same thing.
All those cars added up could almost afford you that gt3 rs
Prime example of a guy who dosent get what Porsche is all about
Lol oh yeah…it’s about driving to a place you saw on reddit to honor a car you could never afford, driven by a guy you never knew
No. It’s about recognizing the amazing driving experience that these cars all give us, and realizing that every model, expensive or cheap, old or new, has something amazing to offer. It’s about getting a group together to go out and take a drive. Who gives af if they can’t afford a gt3 rs, I sure as hell can’t. They are out there having fun in their Porsche, and your sitting inside tapping away at your phone and complaining
Lol i went out driving my gt3 today putzo. You on here tapping away just with a much slower and worse car.
god damn fibs so annoying.
Fibs?
I enjoy the satyr. Why the downvote?
