Yet there are many out there running way higher HP in 718's and even 981's with bigger engines and no reports ( that I read) of MT transmission failures... ?

The gearing is also wrong for a 9k rpm engine.

The gearbox supplier (Getrag?) does not stand behind them if used with over 309 ft-lbs. Porsche doesn’t want the full burden of replacement (and legal liability of accidents caused by failure of knowingly using inadequate hardware).

Yes, there is that angle as well... the Porsche Buyer Hierarchy!

Not only is that **** poor underhanded insult attempt trying to call him unsophisticated, and then "pray he doesn't wipe the floor with me by answering".. but you're also dead wrong and weirdly prejudiced.
Many of us buy many brands, and Porsche and Vette are part of multi-car garage. Whatever you're trying to insinuate, think again.
"no need to respond.."
more like "I know that was an a-hole post and I'm going to go hide behind my computer screen now ![ducking](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/icon107.gif)

In the case of the 911 Cup race car, the GT3 RS is used to homologate it (and there hasn’t been a Manual version of that model for over 10 years).

Depending on the GT4rs release date, that VIP deal is expiring soon? It was for 10 years or something,I recall based on that invite package.

I know because I myself have had many cars (some of them Vettes, even) and the two cars are too different to reconcile. Usually a person is one or the other... not both.

You're Still dead wrong as many of us cross ship and buy both cars.

I think at this point nobody really knows anything with certainty , but with the world being in the state its in it may just happen due to various shortages. I'm 1st on my dealers list as well but I'm honestly worried I may not get one. They've always been great in the past, only selling for msrp etc but they're also a small volume dealership so who knows how many allocations they'll get if any. There's also the question whether the road car will actually get a gt3 motor, if not I'll probably just stick with my regular old gt4.

Even #1 on the list comes after a dealership’s preferred client list. If you’re not an established premiere customer, on a truly limited edition, you’re likely to get nada.
