Lol at people who think their street cars are race cars because they have a wing on the back.

Precisely my point. They already know, at least in most of the ROW where a big dealer may get 6-7 cars. A midsize dealer less,
A smaller dealer may get none. My dealer is midsized and only getting 2-3 cars.

The exact same post, but without the condescending intro sentence, works much better.

Meh.. what's the point.. no fun. Killjoy 100% baby!

Look, I'm wrong, you're right, the RS is nothing like a turnkey track car, race car.. whatever precise definition you choose is right. Seems to me a lot of bitterness caused by people not getting cars they want or having to pay over for them. And I agree that would suck... but stillC play nice no?

Back to reading and driving... oh and emojis.. emojis are great.
I kind of agree with you. Too many armchair critics that fuss over, and criticise, the slightest error in semantics. And way toooo many circuitous repeating threads. My god how may ADM, PDK vs Manual, GT4 vs GT3, help me with my colour posts, etc, etc can you read. So I have been mulling over this for awhile and have decided that I am out of RL. Most of the interesting RLers from a couple of years ago no longer post and, similarly, I have had a growing disinterest/frustration with the forum. So I wish you all well and that you end up with the car of your dreams.

Porsche Newsroom on Insta has a short video post of parts of the car. However the car they are talking about in the caption is the 718 GT4RS Clubsport. It looks like what we have been seeing.

Could the regular RS be a lesser car or will it have the same exterior features of the Clubsport.

This sneak peak appears to show the street car as evidenced by the airbag steering wheel.

Carbon wings but plastic louvers, and front hood not carbon?
But new steering wheels same as 992.

Right, good catch at the end there. Unless that was thrown in there as distraction. Or without thought.
