Anyone is thinking to add if possible Extended Deviated Stitching Interior Package ? XVL

The interior does not match with yellow or red unfortunately.

Is that on the configurator, or is that going to be a Cxx option?

I do quite a lot of country/mountain backroad tours and the GT4 to me is more engaging in that role. I ordered an RS today with possible 3rd quarter 2022 delivery. Spec for spec a little bit cheaper than a 2017 GT3 clubsport in Australia. A new 992 GT3 is about 20% more on a spec for spec basis and the new 992 GT3RS wil be over 40% more on a spec for spec basis.
The GT3 is no doubt a better car from an engineering perspective but I've become a Cayman sort of guy in my dotage.
Very much first world problems!!!!

agree with all this, the GT4 RS is a relative bargain in AU, if you skip WP its about $335k, my 992 GT3 spec is $420k, have been told that the upcoming 992 GT3 RS will be in the $520-$550k range and with WP around $600k. of all GT cars I've owned, RS's etc, its the manual 981 GT4 that I miss the most.

How important is it to have the Weissach package and Mag.rims on this car?

its an appearance package at best, little tangible value from a performance point of view... having said that the CF components will appeal to many.

So... 991.2 had 500 hp as well. Not the slight bump the 992 got. It did the Ring on Cup2's. Not Cup2R's. It did a 7:12.7.

GT4RS did a 7:04.5. It's 8 seconds faster.

Haven't they said the Cup2R's are good for about 8 seconds?

So are they bang-on identical in performance?

This car looks really really HIGH. Why is that?

Porsche decided to design a new tank for the dry-sump oiling system that made it Cayman compatible.
992GT3 has a new separated dry sump oiling tank than 991.2gt3?
