I think I will join you guys and say that I am not planning to trade my .1 to .2 based on what we have heard of the specs for now. BUT wait until the lizard green pictures start coming and the hype comes from the reviews. 
I'm sure majority of us will be calling our dealers and offering our wives and kids for an allocation and I will be one of them most likely

RS to RS, only reason to trade if you’re not a bubble wrapper is reliability of new motor - new motor is in the Cup, old one didn’t make the cut. Beyond that everything else I can do better aftermarket. Diffuser can be added. Stiffer suspension can be added and frankly I’d go Ti springs for less unspring weight savings and aftermarket shock for better adjustability. Never had an issue with brake cooling so unless they’re introducing new calipers that make pad changes easier I don’t care. RWS recalibration? Meh. Serious trackers are binning the whole system and liking it better. The delta would allow you do stuff like the above plus lightweight exhaust and Mg wheels and still leave money in your pocket for consumables.
That’s for real drovers. If you’re a wrapper or looking for street cred then of course latest is greatest. Oh, and last of the NA RS’s. There’s that.....maybe.

I am still very interested in the .2GT3RS if I can get one at msrp and especially PTS. It will no doubt be faster then the .1 of that we can be certain. Doesn't detract from the fact the .1 is still epic and the fact the better move is always from RS to RS not RS to GT3 imho.
An RS is an RS. Fact.

.1RS 4.0 made the cut. Ran in the '15/'16 GT3R. Flawlessly. Has proven to be a very very reliable engine. More so than the Mezger actually. So it doesn't rev to 9000. It revs to 8800. Yawn.

If they don't make a fuss about anything there won't be any posts.
Just be glad they are not talking about value.
Yet.
