Very nice collection. Have you driven the GT2RS enough to share with us what you like and don't like about it when compared to the GT3RS?

only drove it 10 miles but it’s obvious how different it is comparing to the 3RS. Will give a report once I have a chance to drive them.

Congrats! Let me know what you think of the 488 Pista? And how it compares to the Speciale. I have a Pista coming in 2 months time, so I'm eager to read real driver's feedback on it.

I don’t know why they would stop so long as they are making 991’s. The car is amazing and the profit probably is too. That being said, selfishly I hope they stop today.

2019 production was always in the plan. Remember, this is not a limited edition car.

Manthey Racing did it again:manthey_racing

New lap record on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife!
Porsche has set another new record on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife in cooperation with Manthey-Racing. The Porsche GT2 RS MR with 515 kW (700 hp) completed a lap of the 20.6-kilometre long circuit in 6:40.3 minutes. No other road-legal vehicle has ever been so fast on ‘The Green Hell’ track. Lars Kern was at the wheel of the sports car.

Picked just now from Instagram.

More: https://www.roadandtrack.com/new-car...anthey-racing/

"We've reached out to Manthey Racing for a detailed rundown of the upgrades it made to the GT2 RS, though a Porsche representative told us they consist mainly of chassis and aerodynamic tweaks, including the larger wing and dive planes you can see in the pictures here. Manthey didn't touch the GT2 RS's stock 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six, because apparently 700 horsepower is enough."

Wow Congrats to the Manthey Team. Porsche will not relinquish their supremacy at the track. Kudos to everyone in making this happen.

Drive safe,

Not that it matters: I saw them having two GT2RS there: One yellow and one red.

I was really confused what they did there and didn't think that it was a record run going on.
