Kobalt:Some details abut the car:
No rear wheel steering, 18" wheels, GT4 5 lugs hubs, brakes from cup, all unnecessary wiring removed etc.
Suppose that the front is Cup. I think the end is RSR but not sure.
The endplates on the wing is from 991 RS - they where not allowed to us use original end plates by TÜV.
Very cool car - was parked next to him at hotel and he passed me rather quickly on the Ring

Gauss:991.2 GT3 RS with 520 hp 4.0 liters. Production until end of summer, same for the regular GT3. No more additional allocations for GT3 units like many suggested. There’s no viable solution for reducing emissions to meet the regulations.
I'm afraid it is true...no 4.2 l...for various reasons.

The 991.2 GT3 RS will be the last n/a RS, so... Difficult to predict where prices will go.
If you care about performance (chassis), the new one is definitely the better car. Not sure however how important this is to you and how much you are willing to pay up to move to the new car. Once this car hits the roads, prices for the 991.1 GT3 RS could drop. Could...you never know. So if you want the new one, you better sell your car now.

its just 2 questions Darius :
1 - The price you sold your car and actually many 991.1 gt3 rs on the market.. ( a friend sold is 991.1 GT3 RS with 5000 kms for 165.000 euros...)
2 - Can you get a GT3.2 RS if it a limited in production or number? and the solution is to keep the 991.1 RS

That assumes they won't go NA hybrid...
Gauss:Very optimistic article.
I agree. If it's not 4.2L, I don't see how it breaks 7 minutes (>200hp and Ft-Lbs TQ fewer than GT2RS and just a bit more than GT3). Should be close to 7:00 though...

Manthey did 7:10 with "their" suspension and setup on the 991.1 GT3 RS:
I wonder how many seconds the tires from the 991 GT2RS will be good for when put on the 991.1 GT3 RS?
My guess is tires are worth ~6 sec. .2 RS with Manthey setup should have good shot to break 7min.

Right:
1) for less than 190k euros i will not sell my car,991 RS here around are again over 210k.
2) i’m firts at my dealer for the .2,so this seems not a problem.
it all depends in how many .2RS will come to Italy,if are not much also .1 will keep value,also becouse who search an RS don’t whant a GT3.
as ever,time will tell...

What about that rumored limited "Cup Edition" RS for the road? If it is that with 5-lug wheels (less than 20"), would be pretty interesting...

My guess is the GT3.2 RS is a limited edition like the 997 RS 4.0. After Porsche called " cup edition"? I hope Porsche going to do a real limited "last NA" car
