​​​​you daily´d already a Cup?
i did. 2 days long. than i was gone in all aspects...

a top model is not wearing latex.
Yeah, but in my opinion there are very few of us out there that can drive these cars to full potential, when the weight savings from the radio delete will even matter.. At least I can't LOL

Not easy to find a more crappy sound system as the standard one in the .1GT3RS. oh wait. Viper ACR 3-Speaker version
i like music a lot. but normally drive without. just sometimes - when going home after a trackday or somehow - it creates a good mood - as long it doesn´t sound like iphone disco.
Your car has "standard system"
But there's no standard system any more! See the new "standard" is Sound Package Plus (incl.amplifer and 8-speakers 150W)

I don't like the new "standard system" at all the last one was light/kg and fine to keep the radio off

The RS is not a Cup car. It's a street car and should look like one that cost over $200,000.

this are important news!

for me i think a .1 without Sound Package Plus is making less sense than a .1 with Radio delete.
but maybe you kept it (instead of the full delete) based on bluetooth? or does have "our" RS even bluetooth? i don´t remember...

as you say, if the new standard is Package Plus and the option is Bose (even better) - Bose is not needed.

No bluetooth, just liked the screen and as you see it's easier to sell with the screen not with the hole in the dash.
The Sound Package Plus isn't great at all! I had it on my GT3 and was prety disapointing.
If you are looking for some sound then probably Bose is the way to go.

The Bose system in my RS and GT3 are pretty good. I will be ordering it in my .2RS.

While the GT3RS being an awesome car and probably the last true naturally aspirated Porsche, how do you guys compare the three: 991.2 GT3RS, GT2RS, and the McLaren 720s.

Although looking at the performance figure and price, it isn't really fair to throw in the GT3RS, but since this will be the last true 911 maybe it'll be something special to have. The price tag on the GT2RS with options will come really close to the McLaren 720s while the GT2RS basically dominated the green hell, the McLaren 720s is fast as hell and with the design and doors, most people might find the 720s more appealing or more exotic car like.

So if you were to choose between these three cars... what would it be? I personally love the NA GT3RS very much, but the GT2RS is just gonna be so rare and fast... then the exotic 720s... I truly have a hard time picking one out of these three cars...

Do we know if backup camera will be mandatory for the RS? It's not in the build specifications yet.

Non-US Rennlisters: Backup camera is optional on some markets.

in Germany and Austria the backup is also optional.

but i will take it.
i can drive cars, forklifts, trucks, combines. but if you have to do after some hot stints some tricky parking - and no peep peep at all. not so good...
