Add to that McLaren P14, Huracan Performante and 488 Speciale in 17/18) as well as a few EV cars between now and 19/20 and PAG will "meet the market".

GT3 4.0 manual is a sure thing and already seen in pics testing at the Ring.
Same RPM as the R. No more 9000.

RS is all speculation still, but if they just grab all existing Parts form the RS and TTS, Sturm and add some pepper it doesn't have to cost more than $200k

My one bad guess in years. What's your track record for factual accuracy?

The second is another post "my dealer said" and is naive at best if OP had read some of Rennlist.

Nothing to do with your wild guesses or being a dick about comments being posts affecting flipping dreams and pointing out some usually as-well-as-can-be-possible informed posters being inaccurate for once.

Fzx has started writing his posts in bold font.. for that increased truthiness element he so desperately seeks. maybe by Paris Show next year he'll add in Italics & underline.

Anyway, Thanks for keeping things real CJ.. can you tell us based on your preview if you think people will be positively surprised by 991.2 GT3 or should we expect just a small incremental gain over 991.1 GT3?

124 manual vs 99 PDK....

Bingo. Conjecture should only be permitted on these boards by folks who have historically and constructively contributed to them.

Everyone here wants to be "that guy" or "my dealer said". We're all adults here, I think. Happy New Year...
Its all in fun. Of course we will all know for sure when details are officially announced, but until then its fun to argue about it!

Did I mention the .2 GT3 will be a 3.8 and will have both manual and PDK as an option?

That's merely a strawpoll of RL'ers.

Hardly representative of the entire population of Porsche customers, be it GT cars or otherwise.
