I thought it was interesting that the Clubsport race car uses the non-WP intake…

I don't think it's purple. I think it's the same blue color as the wheels. It's matching door pull, seat belts, and seat inserts.

Probably because of drag or maybe it makes the air dirty going back towards the wing and therefore reduces downforce just a smidge.

Also interesting that Clubsport doesn't use centerlocks.
Wish normal RS could be configured with that.

Plenty needs to fall into place just the right way, but I can see at least a possibility of taking euro delivery on this fall 2022...

That's my plan as well.
Good luck!

I thought dealers hated Euro delivery. Costs them money some way?

Kind of bummed on a few areas: no electronic differential, left some aero/downforce on the table, fenders the same size as GT4, wheel/tire sizes exactly same as GT4 weren't able to go wider or larger to increase longitudinal and lateral grip. Makes me wonder without the Cup2R tires whether car is under-gripped relative to the increase in power.

Has anyone noted that on the Canadian Configurator the fuel capacity for Gt4 RS is listed a 54 lt versus the GT4 standard 64 lt.

Any take as to the reason why?

54 lt in a track environment are going to last a few hot laps ... I currently have the 92 lt option on my GT3 and really like the extra range.

Hard to choose between this and a GT3 🧐

My guess is due to the routing of the NACA ducts on the frunk for the brake cooling, it cut into the gas tank area. Either that or maybe some space had to be given to the optional FAL.
