Like apparently so many others, I just did the same thing!! Congrats.

I love my RS, but finding the right road for it is difficult. The most frustrating part of owning it is that it’s always begging to be on a track.

Now we just need to see if the .2 accelerates quicker than an RS

Maybe...but supposedly 20 more hp- can’t see my self paying a significant premium for it.

Congrats, what a stunning machine. That spec is just about exactly what I would want if I were spec'ing my own GT3RS... Post some more photos if you have them!

Every additional Porsche HP costs anywhere from $1000- $4000

Damn... Weissach package on GT2 is a steal at only $750 per pound. Alexa, add GT2 w/ Weissach to my shopping list. Also remind me to leave blank check for .2 GT3 RS deposit.


Its 5 AM in Paris and I’m clearly delirious

ill be honest- I’m new to Porsche. Had a panamera back in the day but this is my first true Porsche. I kept hearing about the Weissach package and how it reduces weight. Was blown away by how much weight is actually shed with the gt2 and the cost of he package. It’s like 30 pounds. Crazy.

Yep. I always say Porsche and Ferrari people are nuts. It’s endearing and preposterous. Just look at prices for 2015 and 2016 Carrera GTS. Not too far off of used GT3s. And miles away from Carrera S which it’s closely based on. The amount they’re willing to pay for an extra badge, insignia, or stripe is hilarious.

And yet if you order a GT2, you must get the Weissach for resale... you’re sucked in whether you like it or not lol

Now there’s this Carrera T. Nothing special about it except it’s a lightweight Carrera (made light by not adding heavy options, not by actually removing weight). Let’s see how that T badge affects the depreciation curve....

yeah- Carrera t makes no sense to me. But we are all fools who pay extra for the latest and greatest.

Waxer- Not a big fan of LO but with the satin finish it really changes the way light reflects off it. Awesome looking

Where did you get the "RS" Vinyl emblems?
