GT4 RS is a different mind set. I have had both 991 RS's and was bored after less than 1 k miles. I bought a 981 CS and have had a great time. Now bored, on to next thing. Human nature...
I have been on list for GT 4 RS for years and only had interest if GT engine. It is the first and last of a great thing. Maybe I will keep, maybe not. GT cars are way too good for the street anymore. Character means more than performance in my view. Still have my 97 993 and love it every time I drive it. I am a dinosaur and have no interest in electric or hybrid.
The 4 RS will be special for a long, long time in my view...

because why should a gt4rs less boring?
gt3 RS is the more rewarding driving experience. Go faster if GT3 rs is boring, in most cases not the car is boring instead the driver dont use the potential, sorry imho.

For sure most don't use the potential of the car.
While we need to qualify where his boring comment comes from, for me things getting boring are a) just looking for something different b don't like a particular thing about a car c) not fun on the street
I track and that's where you really enjoy these GT cars. Not sure what street your are wringing out the performance of a 3RS. Whereas my air cooled , so much Street fun at whatever speed.
I'm in the camp of not understanding what people with Mclarens nd such are doing on the street, sure there's a small driving experience to be had that's different from other cars...but really getting the performance of the car, not on the street.

That's why 1/2 mile events exist for that crowd
But yeah...I agree with you. You really have to take it to a track and experience the capabilities of these cars.
^^^ Why are the exhaust tips on the GT3 RS are facing down???
It's to reduce exhaust sound emissions/dBs. With the increasingly restrictive EU sound emissions limits, I'm surprised that we have not seen more of this approach previously from Porsche and other manufacturers. The advantages are that does not reduce power, keeps a good tone, and just reduces dBs to pass sound tests.
It would be neat to see a manufacturer make a motorized system that moves the tips from pointing down for street mode to pointing straight back for "track/off-read" exhaust mode.
I brought my GT4 back to stock and I'm curious, do the clear front side markers from the 718 GT4 fit on the GT4RS? It looks like it's the same part on the Suncoast website.
Did you have a harness bar? If so where did you order fresh plastics from cutting holes?
