My crystal ball...

If they build a GT2RS, expect them to use it on the outgoing 991.1RS body OR they will build it when the 991.2RS body is outgoing. Typical last of the line.

Expect everything from the RS but with some sort of funky trunk lid with spolier.

The car will come in under $299k with options.

650-700HP

It will be stupid fast and a world beater.

Licence plates could be:

CASKET
AIRMILES

It will be at MVSP - Market Value - that is the new motto. Porsche has decided to let Supply/Demand determine the price on their upper tier cars. The thing is they get to pull the strings.

If my information is correct, MSRP for the last GT2RS was $245,000, so I'd expect about $290,000 base for the 991 version, maybe $310,000 with options.

For that kind of money, I'd expect a fairly limited number of cars produced.

It's going to have the power to run max downforce and still run away uphill from O Rouge from those pesky, puney wing GT3's and all the other now FI track cars.

So stops better and turns better like GT3RS but with some proper reserve exiting corners.
It better come with some good brakes and brake cooling..

I hope next year and that it's a GT3RS with turbo's and bigger brakes. Not PCCB.
Mine will have straight pipes.

Straight pipes required on turbos. BBI has many, many GT2/RS and Turbos with straight pipes and they sound MEAN. Who said a turbo can't sound awesome?

The NA is still the sweetest tho....

You're right and catless or fewer cell cats (i.e. 100 from Europipe.be) is much better reducing back pressure on Turbo's

straight pipes would be evil.

Id say the car would be good for 2:11-2:13 at Sebring given the power to weight.

Youd want full suit and fire supression! lol

So let me get this straight: They will either build it on the 991.1 body or the 991.2 body? Nostradamus over here

Supposedly spy shots of GT2RS. Saw this on Worldcarfans. Hopefully it's not a repost.
