Take it for what it’s worth- it’s a valid comparison at least since it was done on the same track at the same day. If the fix is in, well that wouldn’t be the first time, but all this extrapolation of times from different days and drivers is just a lot of wasted time.

Some of you race and should know that you can’t compare results from one track day to the next. In our spec class we are as much as 3-5 seconds a lap faster on any given track due to weather and conditions. Also whoever ran on the track before makes a huge difference as well. We’ve been way off lap times just due to some incompatible rubber that had been layed down before us.

What I don’t understand is why they didn’t get a 2rs in there?
They may may as well have compared the Pista to a Ford Fiesta- oh wait....never mind. They did.
These reveiws are just lame.

The insecurity is strong in this thread.

These games don't exist on the Porsche side. You could say it's equivalent, but not "much worse than Ferrari."

Really? Because I never had to buy a GTC4Lusso and a Portofino just to qualify for a GT3 RS before. Whereas with Ferrari that *might* be enough, maybe, perhaps, potentially, to qualify for a 488 Pista. And to qualify for the 812 version of the F12 TDF? Don't even bother unless you've spent a few million with the dealer.

2rs? At Msrp? You will get laughed at. How about that new speedster that’s coming? What’s that gonna cost you to be able to get one, let alone at Msrp.
Portofino, Lusso, 488, 812 can all be had at Msrp. Yes you might have to wait a bit till
your allocation comes but no markups from Msrp from the dealer.
Pista? Limited edition car supposedly but if you really want one, can likely get one. Just be patient as they will make lots.
how many threads have there been with Porsche and adm. do I even need to mention the name Shiraz?
All these comapnies suck- Porsche is right up there.

I agree. None of them are your friends. They all look to stick it to you to one degree or another. Any one who thinks otherwise .. flush out your head gear.
I do find Porsche owners more down to earth and less snooty in general.
