Man, Non WP really does look MUCH cleaner

Other than looks, I would really like to know the weight diff, if any, between the two. I’m guessing it’s minimal. The hood is CF either way.

On the 991 GT3 RS, the weight savings was only a few pounds (I think almost entirely due to the carbon fiber swaybars - and I don’t think we have those here). If there was any meaningful weight loss with WP, they would say so…

Outside of North America, you can save weight on the titanium rollbar compared to steel Clubsport version. Here, it’s only a cosmetic package (and in many colors, I think the non-WP is more attractive).

The Mag wheels and PCCB save weight. The only other weights savings are the options you don’t choose (front axle lift, 18-way seats, etc).

Good info, so it’s just a looks thing.

Yeah I can't imagine its huge. All of the CF components in WP (besides the airbox and scoops I guess?) are on the normal car...they're just painted. Carbon sway bars don't save all that much weight. Mag wheels are still optional extras.

Edit: whoops, didn't see GrantG's post before mine lol

But, how much lighter are the Mag wheels?

Also, wheels can always be added later.

Seems that PAG placed this safely up close to the GT3. The mid-engine is more desirable, but no MT, 6+ year old tech, no wishbone. In the end, it’s a great car but no GT3 competitor. Also, PAG is definitely getting more of the sales price. Let’s see how those initial ADMs hold.

Also an inferior rear suspension layout as well. No RWS. Smallish tires.

Still a phenomenal car, but definitely carefully designed to fit its intended market position.

Agreed. I really don’t see the value in this car above sticker.

So who's got an allocation?

I'm talking about the hood painted but with the WP.

Black with WP looks great too. But that might be a boring combination. I like it though.
