    New RS again?

    Anyone know if there will be a new RS coming out as 997 mk2?

    GT3 mk2 is coming for sure, but what about the RS?

    Re: New RS again?

    Just got some news from my dealer, no news of the new RS, but the new GT3 mk2 will be due on 2009 as a 2010 model.

    This time we got a totally new engine, PDK, LED etc.

    With the PDK and upgraded sound system, the new GT3 can be use as a daily drive.

    A GT3 as a daily driver?! Come on. Maybe they put a VW Logo on it!!

    It should be a Racer!!

    PDK I think your dealer has no clue what he is talking about I am afraid. There will be no PDK for the new GT3. For me that is a good thing

    Motor Authority just published new photos of what they say is the GT3RS MkII.
    http://www.motorauthority.com/spy-shots-facelifted-porsche-911-gt3-rs.html
    We have seen photos of this car in the past but they now have newer photos. They say the RS will be available in the middle of next year as a 2010 model.
    I am #1 at my dealer and look forward to taking delivery at the factory.

    i think it will get new exhaust tips a la CGT style. As the new Cayenne Turbo is kinda showing it going that way..

    This is a quick Techart tip

    Nice, again this is the GT3 not RS.

    Sounds like the 6-speed is the only option, so no PDK yet.

    However, a white clubsport GT3 will be great enough for me.

    Just want to update the info again, the dealer comfirmed there will be PDK for the new GT3, just same as the new TT.
