Most folks follow what Andreas Preuninger recommends.

I can only tell you how I personally do it, or how we do it at Weissach – for the first 500 kilometres or 300 miles, we don’t drive that car ever over 5000 rpm, never. From then on, every 200 kilometres, we up the rpms by 500, so we end up at 1300, 1400 kilometres at the threshold before we can really go full throttle, at 800 or 900 miles.
He then went on that this procedure was really important for the GT3 RS engines given their more delicate rings - and how important this break in really is for any of their engines.
Another point - he recommended realigning the car after 1000-1500 miles due to settling - especially since the tires are getting bigger and bigger, and more sensitive to changes. The RS apparently is really sensitive around this.

Owners manual. Keep engine under 7k for first 1,500km. You get the reminder message in blue at start up.

Default production data including MY'24

Some where asking for a production numbers update. I've updated my spreadsheet with MY'24 data.
Unknown cars are most likely MY'24 cars not finished yet. Final update probably when GT4 RS production has stopped.

That's almost 6,600 4RS's made - it will be interesting to see what the final total is once production ends.

Much appreciate the effort. Guessing no chance of knowing PTS color breakdown?

~15667 worldwide. Some think that's too many, some think that's not enough.

6600 for MY23 and MY24?
That means its getting close to that 7000 figure initially planned when the car was introduced...

7200 OA and 2500 for NA were numbers that were floating around a while back.

That 992 GT3 number - WOW

Port worker strike could delay deliveries…
