You need to look at the GT4CS and why they went to this setup. Plenty of picture been posted. Bottom intakes pick up hot air which limits power whereas those window vents provide cooler intake air. In opposite of what you think.

I was offered 20k ADM on a 992 GT3 in SoCal, don't expect it to be any better on a GT4 RS

I might just buy a GT4RS and GT3RS in Poland since I have family there and then just have them shipped out here and register them through my Montana LLC. Then I can get all the goodies Europe gets in their GT cars.

A GT4 RS was recently spotted in California. Rumor has it that the car will be revealed alongside the GT3 Touring on June 21st. Pretty exciting stuff. Reminds me of when the 992 GT3 was about to be revealed and it was spotted in Cali over and over again.

Interesting to note. It looks like the 3rd brake light is on the ducktail spoiler in this picture. Wonder if the swan neck spoiler is "too high" for DOT and they mandated the 3rd light be moved to the ducktail spoiler for visibility?

Otherwise, it seems to be showing all of the usual stuff that we've seen before.

I have already been given an allocation but at $40K over MSRP. They told me could be the first and last GT4RS will electrification coming to the platform. LOL they are playing the marketing BS fiddle. For that money, my GT will be getting BGB 4.25 or Deman 4.5 engine upgrate and Ohlins TTX suspension goodies.

AFAIK no allocations have as yet been assigned. Which dealer is saying they already have them?

Unofficial I get there first allocation. They have been straight with me for the last couple of years which is why I don't use local Porsche dealer for new cars anymore, I go down the street (a state over) to an honest dealer who shoots me straight regardless of ADM or no ADM.

@porscheflat6 I guess that is the real question right. If its the 982 GT4 suspension with just aero plus small power bump, I dunno. I could do a lot of upgrades with a $40K ADM.
