I also have a tracking sheet with the planned/projected dates but having just gone through this process in August of 2017 here are some observations. The initial tracking sheets for the 718 stated 3 week delay at Emden but was on the ship the day after it arrived in Emden (27 July). So I was promised arrival of the 718* at the dealership on the 15th of September but instead it arrived on the 18th of August. Hopefully, this time around since my 3RS will be completed on the 20th of July it should arrive at the dealership, all things being equal, on or before the date the 718 was (18 August).
*completed 24 July

Sounds pretty good to me! Quote from the youtube video write-up, "Set to make its public debut at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show, the 991.2 GT3 RS might just be the last naturally aspirated GT3 model". Wonder if this is to be the last NA GT3-RS model......if true, certainly wouldn't hurt resale

Saw this red RS at FoS. It looked so good it had me questioning my LG. One of the best looking RS I have seen to date. IMO, the 5 best colours for this car are LG, GR, RY, MB and White. Darker colours and silver just don’t work for me on an RS.

My RS was in good company at FoS in the Performance Car Park. As far as I could see, it was the only 3 RS there. It got s lots of attention and thumbs up wherever I went. There were heaps of Lambos and Mclarens though.

@Chris3963, colour, as you well know is a very personal choice but to me your LG RS is better looking than the Guards.

I wonder if there are any reports of the 991.2 GT3-RS hp being measured on a dynno? As we all know, Porsche tends to be conservative with their reported specs. I read one source claiming the hp is closer to 530 +/- but don't have the link.

Guards Red on .2 is killer! Not as “hey look at
me” as Lizard but commanding presence. Congrats to all who have one on the way. My chalk 3 leaves Emden later this week.
