+1 it seems credible thanks for sharing. I have a doubt on the end of NA engine without a limited version of the RS. its a personal vision

It was sounding decent until he got to all the levels of adjustability and the kicker : PTS fully available! Lol!
CS pkg installed by the dealer? Lol! Who's that dealer GMG or BBI?
Next one carbon tub and flat 8? Lol.

That sounds absolutely insane!! Can't wait for the official reveal! Thanks.
One question, the larger diffuse suggests a more mid-engined set up like the RSR. Is that what you're suggesting?

Everything sounds great, but I see two problems:
1. PTS
2. Unlimited numbers- GT3 RS was produced around 5000 units. Don't see how this will happen with GT2 RS... At least, they won't have the time to do it...

I guess this is what these Forums are about, we can all dream. Great imagination Peter. Hopefully you get this dream car you rightfully deserve.

Same front fenders as the 991.1RS but reworked to fit 275/285.

Rear:
Big, semi active rear wing a hybrid wing between the current RS wing that moves like the TTS /918 wing, huge defuser between to cannon-like exhausts.
No manual.
Updated RWS.
Updated electric steering rack.
Updated PDKS gearing and programming. So no longer only granny mode and bat**** mode but sport, sport +, extreme and Race and Race Custom.
Same button with more settings as on the current C2S steering wheel.
Race custom allows you to adjust ABS, e-Diff, SC threshold and 3 settings for downforce.
SC can only be fully deactived with full downforce engaging over 60MPH.

Power
Bigger scoops for the air intakes a la GT4 plus fixed scoops worked into duck tail underneath the active rear wing. 700HP 640lb for 15 seconds on overboost.

Tires:
Next spec MPSC2, 285 / 345.

Colors:
CUP White and German flag colors as Mr Porsche intended are free.
All colors available in PTS from beginning to end of production run.

Brakes:
This time no std PCCB as already proven the 991 steel brake system is plenty strong and durable enough but a little more front brake cooling is added and a proper Movit based CCB system is optional. CF Carbon Revolution and Magnesium BBS wheels optional. Part of two track packages a la Weisach edition of the 918.

Clubsport package now available in the US but must be dealer installed with the CS package interior options reduced to current RS option list.
CS in a box + dealer install is an expensive option but it comes with a Barber track day to explain all the track setup of the systems.

Non-CS cars get sofas dont get the track packages option but all options available on the TTS are available. There will be a valet setting.

Base price $225K, CS package is 20k (Free ROW again) and can be optioned to well over $350K ...

No bull**** limited number plaque on the dash, same production numbers as the 991.1RS, the GT2RS is a direct replacement. No more NA RS.

Will remain in production along the TTS until 991 production seizes.
This will be the last steel tub, flat6, non hybrid RS.

Next 992RS will be similar with the 918 driveline mated to a flat8 in a CF tub.
Now that's what I'm talk'n about!!!!

Question then becomes do I trade for the GT2RS or keep the last likely NA RS made? Chit! Why wasn't I born rich!!!!

Again, RS production was increased but they didn't over double production.

WW is about 3500 to 4000.

U.S. 1500 or so.

918 is V8 not flat8

if any 8cyl where they go with engine chassis bay, it hasn t have more space

unless after only 8yrs they decided to through away 991 steel tub and 911 rear engine layout

i guess that's 960 with carbon tub with v8 plus hybrid a la 918 also used by next lambo and audi

I'm curious, how pissed would some of you be if they only built 991 GT2RSs?
