To get real for a second..................................
There is no chance in HELL that Porsche would test and allow spy shots to be taken of a new 991.2 RS while the .1's are still rolling off the assembly line and still will be for 4 more months. NO CHANCE!!!
That car is a turbo, only question is, is it a GT2 or GT2 RS?
thats it!
Anyone want to bet???

Frankel has a way with words - I enjoy his descriptive writing about driving - but his credibility is very much in question after he bungled so many things about Porsche's product planning over the past few years.
It amazes me that some members of this forum feel like these breathless articles from autocar, worldcarfans, etc. are reporting any sort of "news" about Porsche's upcoming products.
It's literally some spy shots taken at the ring or along known test routes and parroted all over the internet with speculation created by "journalists" to generate clicks.

It's not a Frankel article, after all.
Convinced there's a lot of misdirection going on now...
I'll be very disappointed if they give us a warmed over 991.2. Time for turbo; I wish IMSA and WEC would take away BOP and force them to compete with the other OEMs on the basis of their actual product.

The same fishwrap, with the same muckraker, penned an article about the 991.2 GT3 coming with a manual option and people drank it up like it was the next best thing to Kool-Aid spiked with Macallan “M”.

I just got off the phone with Oliver (yes, we are on a first name basis). 4.2 - yes. HP will only be 514.25.

Les rumeurs indiquent que Porsche resterait sur une motorisation atmosphérique. Les détails de la nouvelle auto devraient être dévoilés à mi-saison.
