1303RS? · Aussieveedubbers

I've seen this everywhere, painted 1303RS decals and the sort. There are videos of 1303RS beetles drifting on YouTube.

I own a 1303, and I'm curious as to what the RS means? What has been changed...?

not listed here so its more than likely its not a factory version.

Yeah, I didn't think it was a special edition model.
May be something in Europe or America, a theme of bug based from a 1303...

I will do some more research!

i believe its just a sticker, relating to the gt3RS, since its in a smilar style... i toyed with something similar awhile ago too but better judgement ended up liking clean panels more 👍

Yeah its just stickers/decals/desire to be more porsche-like.
when its pulled off well it looks pretty slick. check out Penrose's!

It's not real, it's just a Porsche reference.

The RS stands for "Rennsport" which translates to "racing" or "Race Sport"

And as above it is used in in imitation of the RS badged porsches.

Ah, why thank you all for this!

Just thought I'd ask about something else I didn't know :P
