What is the deal with only 3 more hp than the GT3? That is just from individual throttle bodies ala BMW M na years ago? Does it have the single mass flywheel?

That red one looks incredible under the bright lights! Looks like the shape loves color!

Exactly. Kind of underwhelming compared to the concept. Majority of these will be tucked away in collections unfortunately.

I know this is the Speedster Line and it has LOTS of attention, but there are other new Porsches? On RL not much going on right now on the 718 are or 981 lines regarding the Spyder so if anyone can also post here that would be appreciated.

Spoke with my GM. He said all of his allocations will probably be snapped up by the 918 owners.

Suitcase -- Can you elaborate on your spyder comment? Could it come prior to Goodwood and have a detuned version of this new engine or is this another 911 variant for the mortals a la the Touring?

Where is the pricing speculation thread that was on here? I think I was close at 265k!

It’s clear (to me) from the 502hp that the speedster will have a particulate filter.

x 1000 I can't believe they didn't offer the Fuchs style wheels with the HP ...

I'm trying to figure out what this car offers for all this money other than collectibility and I'm coming up empty.

I wonder what the premium for the HP will be.

1,948 units is hardly rare so I'd be surprised if these are treated as bubble wrapped collector's items.
