I still like Oslo a lot and that'll be the next PTS color that I order on a GT car.

It’s gonna be killer! The color of my birthplace is the best blue on a Porsche.

I’ve got the same spec as you just with CXX and PDLS+ on top. Hoping to have it in 2 weeks time before the snow comes..

I guess the jungle drums will bring you the pictures. Just to clarify Oslo Blue was definitely in the contest, but I went for another color, which still is my little secret. I don’t think to date I’ve seen my choice of color being mentioned in here or on any other platforms for a GT4RS build. My boys would’ve informed me if so. Did you get the leather wrapped column, climate panel and fuse box like I did😂? It’s my first new purchase of a Porsche (had double-digits second hand ones) so I went a bit overboard you might say. I don’t think it’s possible to get to a higher MSRP on a GT4RS build. Btw, we have another 100k USD in tax on top of your MSRP.

Putin might have something to say about Porsche’s production numbers… Russian LNG to Europe was supposedly shut completely off Saturday. I don’t think no one, least Porsches plant bosses, have a clue to how many cars they will be able to screw together. Maybe my 964 won’t belong to the last generation hand built Porsches after all😬

Where can you find one? Can you specify dealer?

If you're in the Toronto Canada area, checkout C17 Media. They do it all.

This^ I can’t remember the exact count of 7.2 RS’s But it was about 1500 cars. I personally don’t believe they will get near that number of 4RS’s into the US at this rate. 500 maybe. Unless they let production multiple more years. But I think they will run out of time.

You guys over in Europe have those nasty tax ADMs to deal with. haha I didn't get any of the minor options other than white gauge and the rex roof, everything were the big ticket items. With the LED lights my GT4RS build was within $1k of my Touring build.

If 718 E launches in 2025 That's a little more than 24 more months to build 2000 cars and there won't be any in this country after the first of the year roughly. Plus supply chain issues..

I believe that was 2000WW cumulative across the production years. 612 to NA cumulative as well.

You are correct. Mr fuzzy math is not.

Here is another post in the aforementioned thread; this time including a color break down.

Mr. Fuzzy math sees that he is saying WW as in World Wide. I guess you missed that. That even hurts your cause more. And I see you ignored my question on how many 4RS’s will be built?

I guess you missed that I said he is correct. Reading comprehension not your strong suite?

Not sure why you keep trying to muddy the waters, Using historical data which you got wrong and now trying to get someone to predict the future. SmH
