ROW WP gets Ti rollbar. We get hosed and on top of that no discount for lack of rollbar. I put value of rollbar at a couple thousand easily.

I like the body treatment of WP on GT2 RS but don't like the all black hood and roof on 3 RS. That leaves me wanting only the CF sway bars, which I can't justify for $18k w/o Ti rollbar, and the Mg wheels, which I can't get without forking over for part 1. IMHO PCNA needs to rethink how they're marketing the Weissach Package.

There clever to marry to WP to the magnesium wheels.. I Struggle with the value of the WP to get the wheels.. if the wheels were available on there own, no question I would get them.

whats going on with this talk of a second option stickier Cup 2 tire?
I don’t see that option on the configurator

The contrast look is not for me personally. Looks a bit cheap and aftermarket IMO. And the weight savings are not enough to justify $18,000. If you want to track the car, you can pull the passenger seat out for free to lose about the same amount of weight.

WP + normal cage + mag wheels + an essential wrap to take the bimbo ***, need for speed ricer carbon combo look. Or just paint the roof.
That or just a normal one with the wheels bought outside or just with fi-r. And save them coins

LOL, nice one on the seat.

Agree the contrast look appears aftermarket, like a muscle car. Don’t like the look and the cost doesn’t justify the amount of weight savings either.

Where is sticker on the codriver seat?
Your car have the alcantara sun visors but there is a huge sticker on the right side one.

The German configurator is saying this about the Weisach package:

- carbon (sichtcarbon, not painted) hood
- carbon (not painted) roof
- carbon wing with large Porsche script on it
- carbon mirrors (top part)
- carbon inlays steering wheel
- carbon shift paddles
- titanium rear rollcage (no FIA and not possible to fit the front part of the cage)
- Weisach embroidery on seats
- 6 point harnesses dir driver and passenger seat (black)
- Weisach badge on interior trim
- carbon stabilisors and Koppelstangen (don’t know the exact Englisch word for that, mounting brackets?) on front and rear axle
- thinner floor carpets

Magnesium wheels are not available yet and therefore not in the configurator.

Come on, everybody on here thought the base MSRP was going to be way higher than 187,500 so they need to make it up somewhere.

The Magnesium wheels is a product from Manthey Racing/BBS that now is offered from Porsche. If someone wants to buy the wheels only, just contact Manthey Racing in Mauspath (near Nürburgring). They have them in silver/black or titanium finish. Price is around 15 000 Euro + VAT.

I'm still wondering why the front axle lift went up in price 30%.
