I would certainly get WP. I need all the advantages I can get on track to make up for my lack of skill.

Shed 30lbs instead, your wallet will be fatter and you skinnier.

Why not do both.

They’re not mutually exclusive.

I got it. Full disclosure I thought it looked really cool and separated the car from the .1 which i liked.

I've got way more than a bit of weight to worry about as far as my laptime is concerned.

I love the panda WP with gold wheels.

Ditto. Nothing to do with weight. I'm not ashamed to admit I checked it because it looked cool and different from the experience I had with my last UV 991.1rs. Come on, people are paying almost as insane numbers for pts these days. Last I checked white is still fastest?

I ordered WP for looks. It helps we get the titanium cage which is extra bling (albeit at expense of not allowing front cage).
I didnt think I would see my money back when it comes to resale when I ordered it. Even with the stop sale I’m not convinced it’ll be worth more to the average punter.
Out of 6 cars at my dealer-mine is the only WP order if that is any indication of popularity.

For reasons probably unplanned, the WP vs. non-WP distribution of the .2 3RS may end up looking like the 918. The majority of 918 buyers in-period didn't bother to shell out what amounted to the price of an additional GT3 (more if one included the special paint or carbon finish) and those who did so late in the order cycle got denied by PAG...

History has a funny way of repeating itself. That said, I'm not remotely saying that a mass-produced RS will ever attain comparable status as the 918

I'm glad I ordered WP, as I am seeing actual pics of the car it looks quite awesome, a very distinctive addition.

I need it because I'm not very good looking. I'm hoping the extra distraction will help at cars and coffee.

I had the option to bump mine back or take a super early build and skip. I skipped. I'll have it before rennsport and do not regret it at all.

Will probably have 2000 miles on ODO by the time my WP would have arrived. Life is short, go kill some tires.
