I had the opposite problem with my car when I took delivery: it believed it had no water.

The problem disappeared after driving it from the dealership. Was not fortune enough to empty the water tank before the tank disappeared with rest of the car. LOL

Crap, that doesn't sound good. Did you notice any lack of power?

Let us know what they find out. Heading to the track tmw so would like to know if its a isolated problem and how major of a problem. Our cars rolled off the line together so it could very well affect my car too.

didnt notice any but the car has so much power it could be down 50-100 without noticing it. If the water wasn’t cooling the IC’s, the ECU would pull boost and dial back the timing

They are in it right now. Should know more by the end of the day.

The guy is just a straight up FW. If he truly sold the best car in his stable proofs he is complete ****, probably just borrowed it to get square bc Porsche told him to FO for being such a big noting blubbermouth flipper. His blabbering vids just bury him deeper and deeper as a sore *** flipper. Someone needs to tell him don't ever go near a camera and keep the mouth shut up. But he can't coz he just love hearing himself yap yap yap about BS to try be a big man. I hear his big mouth and flipping got himself also in a pickle with Ferrari haha....what a loser.

From game-theory perspective, two dealers holding multiple 2RS in inventory could easily use BaT by one of them listing a car and the other one bidding it up to $550k and "buying" it from the first. Then either not do the transaction or do it then reverse it back behind the scenes. It would only cost them the $5k BaT fee but the very visible $550k BaT "comp" would be worth much more. Do this twice and they've made the "market". Would this even be illegal?

Yes would be illegal.

I guess the guy who designed the oil level gauge is still employed by Porsche. Hope you get it sorted, Sean.

Correct. When he first sold his black 918 Spyder with no options (he bought one of Auto Gallery's 3 no-options car), he lost his VIP rights. He had to fight really hard to get the VIP rights back when he purchased the Acid Green 918 second hand (technically, he didn't profit from the deal because while he profited on his black 918, he gave everything back and then some when he bought the Acid Green 918). When he sold his second hand Acid Green 918, he lost his VIP rights, since he only had the car for about a year. So yes, he bought his GT2RS at some ADM.

He also lives in my neighborhood, renting...

The more I think about him flipping his black GT2RS for $15K, is because he already paid ADM on it and can only fleece somebody by that much.

At least he doesn't have to re-mortgage his home in Taiwan to afford his current home.

LOL. Up to your old tricks again Mr. Ervinwu/Andial? Spreading false information again. I’m glad to see you are back on the forum under another name. Hope you last longer this time and not get banned. Welcome back

We all know this 991 GT2RS is by far the BEST 911 for now at the track, until the next iteration of its kind.

800 HP flat six, port water injection, plus a special water/meth overboost mode that cranks the power to 850.
