so assuming the 4RS does come with centerlock wheels could you not convert to the 5 lug hubs on the standard GT4 ?
Center locks would make it a no go...

If a manual transmission is an option: GT4RS. Otherwise 991.2 GT3 for me.

This is the correct answer with the GT3 being a manual (and preferably a Touring for me despite preferring the wing on the GT4)

Any news when the RS will be presented? 2020 oder 2021?
GT4 RS before or after the new GT3?

Good Wood should have taken place in July.....

How about the PDK version of the regular GT4?

It will have the same motor with a 4% power bump from the GT4 4.0 due to a revised exhaust and maybe some other small tricks - just look at the GT3 to GT3RS formula. The recipe will be the same and it will have under 450 bhp. I have owned a GT4 and I own a GT3 (Touring option). Although I am not an authority on Porsches, it is highly unlikely P will break from tradition. And they certainly are not go to "threaten" the GT3 range.

Plus, I just started lurking here because I have a Spyder allocation. So, I have to start planning.

l agree 100%. If I were a betting man, my bet would be 450 also. 500 horsepower is a nice dream, but will not happen.

My bet is 435 hp if a stock (non manthey ) GT4 does a 7:28 at the ring what kind of lap time do you think they will build into the Gt4rs?
