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.
probably due to FAL

That will be a real piece of unobtanium over here...
Does anyone know if we get the carbon side window option get the better looking scoop style?

PAG appears to definitely been paying attention to all of the people that said they should increase the MSRP in order to avoid the ADM issues. Problem is, we now have a very high MSRP and crazy ADMs.

I full build of the 4RS with going ADMs (I'm not talking about the select few that can swing a MSRP allocation) is about what a GT3 + average ADM is.

I think the MSRP is not that high.

Well, I’d say they knocked it out if the park, well done Porsche

Thankfully it is so out of my budget I won’t have to worry about figuring out how to get one and will continue to enjoy my 981 GT4

The base GT4RS price is <20K of the GT3 base.

I optioned up a GT4RS with the options on my 992 GT3, the RS included the WP and wheels, and the GT3 has some options not available on the RS. The GT3 was about 12K more. With ADMs, the RS would be 250K.

While I don't have to worry about ADMs my configuration came basically the same as a GT3 base (no options)......that includes a selection of sensible options + the WP but not the wheels. Tough decision but leaning toward the 4RS.
The color selection is so boring and PTS is not an option on this one......I'm not a blue or grey fan so guess basic colors for me: either white or yellow

Well, if you are sensible, you must not have selected the window triangles in CF for $730! Holy Markup Batman!

I've heard two things: 1) it's 30mm lower than a base Cayman, and 2) its 30mm lower than the GT4. I think it is the first.
