Ok im 1 outta 2 - My25 4RS happening. Looks like I will get the other prediction too which is they will make as many 4RS as they did 718 GT4... or they will be really really close when all is said and done...

Imagine if you’d just dumped $35k+ into an ADM thinking that 2024 would be the last year of production, and then this happens. Yikes.

I would not be surprised.

My speculation: Probably very limited numbers, single-flywheel, no big wing, suspension tuning of the Spyder RS (or even more road-focused), MT, and an MSRP starting around USD 200k (and ADMs at $100k). Impossible to get for mere mortals like us... Basically a Cayman S/T (though they probably will find another obscure reference to a classic Porsche, e.g. Cayman GT4 RSK). Pity my kids are too old to be sold now

Because Porsche are total lying scum and will do anything for a dollar? I learned a lot when AP lied thru his teeth about the 4RS. Basic Lucy/Football/Charlie Brown.... aaaand we are always CB.

That would be the best case scenario and a dream for some of us like myself, without the steep ADM of course. Would be waiting in line for that car I won't sell my kid but if he really wants to go to college, he can perhaps get a scholarship lol

Looks like they increased the base price by around $4,300. Shark Blue and Ruby Star Neo remain color options.
The base price went up $(CDN)3,800 here in the Great White North.
