Surprised the specs haven't been leaked yet so close to the reveal.

Isn't the reveal going to happen in March at the Geneva auto show in another 5-6 weeks?

My $$ is on 540HP...improved aero...N1 tires (or some newly developed N2 variant) and revised PDK-S mapping. I suspect AP will also wax poetically about upgrades to the engine that make it ‘more efficient’ with less friction.

Seems like too big of a HP jump from the GT3 to the RS. I say the HP will be somewhere between 520-530hp. Definitely updated PDK-S, updated electronic/rear wheel steering, GT2RS aero bits, 1 new standard color option, the new tail lights, the new PCM, and the newer tires....that's about all that I could think of upgrade wise besides the engine and bump in power.

Feb 6 is supposedly the date.

Anyone get an allocation lined up yet? Trying to figure the market out. I have this stupid idea to buy one and swap the MT in my GT3 in it and the PDK into my touring.

Assuming it'll be the same spec as the GT2RS, to me the Weissach cost is really worth it if we can get the darn titanium rollcage included for US-versions.... without it, I'd likely take a pass.

We'll see....

the titanium sport cage is so intriging. I’ve spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to get one.

He probably should. And maybe add a package to the bet!
