Nice catch! Those are the newer mules with the production wing people have speculated, they're likely not going to drop in the swan wing, but that would be better. I'd bet they add wing risers to differentiate from the std. GT4.

The RSR is mid-engined 😄

So, when you wrote 200, above, what your really meant to write was 24? Or else in the last 24 hours 176 GT3-RSs were snapped up?

7:20 and 8:22

Someone on Instagram says they have personally seen the inside but can’t share and swears the engine is from the speedster...I doubt it.

View this post on Instagram

others who hear the shifts say this is a manual in the video...not sure.

Thoughts?

the presumed RS tribute car at 7:30 looks very nice
I'm thinking this is the new touring...
Looked like RWD, but in wider turbo body?

Sounds manual. Also why would anyone say “Speedster Engine” instead of just GT3 engine. I realize they changed like 1 thing but still. Sounds nothing like it based on that short video.

Looks good! Definitely sounds like the new GT4 based 4.0 and not the GT3/Speedster 4.0.
