What kind of gains can you expect in hp and torque? Found the website but there is not a drop down menu for the 2RS.

My 2RS came with the non-carbon fiber steering wheel and my SA indicated the CF steering wheels should start to come available in March. I have two questions is it a complete steering wheel and if so does the owner get to keep both? Or does the steering wheel just get fitted with carbon fiber "inserts" because that is what my SA is suggesting?

The track-only 935 has the same output as the 2RS, despite being tuned with a race exhaust. I'd say the engine is already near its limits (reliably).

What does non-carbon steering wheel mean? Just the gear paddles, or are the inserts on the spokes also supposed to be carbon?

​​​​​My paddles came carbon, but the spokes in the wheel are plastic. Just want to make sure that I got what I was supposed to (Weissach car).

Actually the "spokes" are in fact supposed to be carbon fiber see the video starting at 58 seconds......it looks real cool.

Very nice. Will lightweight performance wheels be on order for this track season? HRE R101 Lightweights are an easy way to shed 30 lbs of unsprung mass.

All Weissach package cars are due this carbon trim. Hopefully they'll deliver them soon. A number of us, myself included, are also due the carbon hood as well.

Reasonable means inline with or below the market. If you’re interested, PM and find out!

If you are paying anything more than $25k over you will regret it.

True story happened last week: Buddy had a deal done on 2RS locally for $60k over. I told him $25k was the right number. Finance guy at dealership started playing games telling him he had to finance 100% at an inflated rate. He walked and sealed a deal a day later on a car at $25k over.

Spoke to a dealer who just sold one at 50 k over and SA stated that he believes they will be msrp in the near future. Continued production and VIP cars coming to market as soon as they can get them there will make it a buyers market. Patience.

2RS ADMs are melting fast. Faster than 3RS ADMs

Has anyone done a ceramic coating on top of ppf? Overkill? Thoughts?

HRE R101LW's are about 20-21lbs lighter than stock, not 30lbs... I have them on my RS
