I'm in the same boat as we're both getting an UK second batch RS..I'd love to know what spec the EU second batch RS will get..The general consensus is they will have the OPFs but not the ITBs..

We saw it from this static angle last night at PECATL... looking forward to your dynamic review

You can add this to the list. The prototype had no top. None. Zip. Nadda. We loved it that way. AP asked would we consider a manual top, the answer was nope, maybe a tonneau cover max.

They will keep the ITB's as the selling point for the boggo 992 GT3 and subsequent and move the price northwards.

I'm guessing they ruled in favor of potential buyer # almost-2000 and not a handful of vip?

Pete, I'm super jealous. I picked the wrong career

Geez, I'm interested driving dynamics of course... road feeling, acceleration/braking, turn-in handling. weight, sound, but also, I'm interested in mundane stuff like will I be able to see and/or access the engine under that extended rear bonnet. Speedster seems the optimal opportunity to display the engine..? Can I change my own oil or air filter. I also care about the height of the car and if there is a lift?

Good stuff, everybody! Keep it coming...

Nice! :thumbup:
The only thing that interests me is the difference the ITBs make in this engine...
Enjoy!

:corn:

I’d really love to know about the infotainment center and whether they’ve taken any steps to improve the cup holders!

Interested in how much noticeable 'handing' is lost from GT3 Coupe in everyday driving. Is the turn in softer, cowl or steering wheel shake over bumps? Thanks in advance.

I just want to know how it sounds in a tunnel.



Oh, and how it sounds in general vs the 991.2 GT3, ie what else does the filter cost?

And I'd also be interested in your impressions around throttle response and calibration. I've got a suspicion that it may not be a noticeable improvement because they'll limit response in software for drive-ability reasons. Instead I agree with those that suggest it was done to let the new engine breath with the old one, which leads to the obvious- will the old exhaust fit, and how much power does that make? That new exhaust with filter looks pretty heavy too? Maybe ask about CG height and torsional stiffness? Any suspension re-calibration necessary for the softer chassis. Tuning philosophy vs the R... How hard would it be to un-bolt the soft top and leave it behind a-la the 987 Spyder, and how much weight would that save?

On second thought I do have quite a few questions. Maybe better if I just speak to them in person.

Sweet. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

My questions:
1. Can I have an allocation?
2. Will they take a personal check?

How user friendly is the top to open and close? How much is automated and how much is manual? The 997 Speedster's top was a PITA!

Thanks Pete!
