How does this wing vary from the GT3 RS wing? Wouldn't mind adding the carbon side intakes to my car if/when they become available.

I would be so disappointed if they don't launch the car at Goodwood. It's the reason I bought a ticket. Can't Stand waiting much longer

What car of any significance would be left for Porsche to unveil at Frankfurt?

I've heard it they will preview it for the 918 guys at GW. My impression was 2RS at Frankfurt then 3RS at Geneva. But it would be odd to have "revealed" the car at E3 then wait so long before an official unveil. Have they ever intro'd anything at GW?

It's a 'first glance', not the launch.
As of last week, it was happening, so unless there's been a late about-turn, my money is still on it going up the hill.

Something has to be happening at Goodwood - we saw couple weeks back the first drive in the prototype car, then saw the unveil of the car at E3 (albeit little info posted).

Now all signs and intel has pointed to Goodwood as the launch of the car (makes sense), particularly as about 15 hours ago, Porsche uploaded a "Flashback" post on Facebook including all the press photos of the 997.2 GT2 RS.

I feel that holding off until Frankfurt seems unlikely at this point?

The lead up marketing has been gaining momentum, it would fizzle to much if Frankfurt was the launch.

So it seems GW seems likely, but I still wonder what Porsche intends to unveil at Frankfurt. A Touring Edition GT3 wouldn't create much of a stir at what is one of the most important auto shows on Earth, not to mention the home country of Porsche.
