Because they said, unlimited production and that eventually everybody that wanted one would get one! Oops. The number will come out eventually. It's going to be very low IMO.

Luckily GT4/Spyder production is over for MY24 which has been about 1700 cars to the US every year from 20-22 so that should now be going towards the 4RS/RS Spyder/718 R.

That was part of what prompted the question. I thought I remember Andreas Preuninger saying that anyone who wanted a GT4RS would be able to get one.

They would have to make a bunch more then. I don’t think they can make enough as it is. Do we know when they will end the production run? I’m going to throw in an order towards the end and see what happens, maybe they pick it up without a allocation…

Saying that it won’t be limited (Porsche Numbered Car) is not the same as it’ll be “unlimited”

Every Porsche is “limited” by production capability and model trim lay downs.

Finally, After three years of waiting. I got my GT4RS!!!!!!!!!!!!





Way to my home!!!

I got a freaking flat tire after 150miles. I believe I am the first one who got a flat tire on GT4RS!!! Take the wheel out and fixed the flat tire and I took a picture of rear strut area!!! Two different type of coils!!! Interesting

Engine undercover. Well I have to take all the screws out to get to the oil plug.


So excited about this new journey!!!!!

However, The dealer told me that I have to follow break in period strictly which is 1,200miles under 4,000rpm. Really????

Numerous posts on this on here. Guess your dealer is making up their own rules.

Big congrats.

Break-in as stated by your dealer, DEFINITELY NOT.
Since it's a GT3 motor, do a search on RL and find the "AP" method. That would be a safe bet and a good compromise.

I started a registry thread to try and get some idea, but I’m sure it will only get a percentage of actual cars built. Still fun to look at the data.
