I'll give myself credit for predicting a mid engired GT3 RS on RL before anyone else thank you very much
Makes perfect sense. Just look at current RSR.
Easy peasy.
Although .2GT3 shares same engine not only is RS state of tune up'd at least 35 horses (no 4.2 needed plus they are not racing a 4.2) but light weight wide body panels and mid engine and active (?) aero or greater aero make it the undisputed GT King. Hardcore!
991.1GT3RS the last of the traditional rear engined RSs.
Now all I have to do is be right!

GT4RS with a 4.0 later this year (assuming Frankfurt), GT3RS next year at Geneva. Mid engine would be nuts, I'm not betting on that but I suppose wouldn't rule it out. The 4RS sounds like it will be the hardest to get, as in forget it in the US if you aren't in the 918 program.
Less than a week after the new GT3 and rumor mill for the next thing is churning as much as ever. Gotta love it...

If they can succeed emission test looks like so
maybe to recover delays/upcoming new 992, might be 6 months earlier Autumn 17 and Autumn 18
but not such a difference
but imagine for a sec they really want to do one but they can t pass September emission tests with this engine/chassis without any hybrid
then expect a very hard core product to differentiate from 2GT3
havent you noticed in .2GT3 presentation the words
more comfortable and rear seats too many times?

Well, I do hope that you're right. If so, 991.2 RS will be epic (and I'll be getting one)...991.1 RS will have its place in history...and my antique heap, 997.2 RS will be the last RS (exception of LE RS 4.0, of course) with manual transmission, mezger, hydraulic steering, compact 997 body...blah blah blah...we'll all be happy.
Enjoy the snow day!
