GT3RS intro
in the typically well-informed german PFF forum it is claimed that the RS intro will not happen this year in paris but the earliest in detroit next year (january). in paris porsche will show the pre-facelift GTS and some SUV.

Because of GT racing regulations, RSR/RS is not allowed to have RWS. Without RWS, it'll be a huge disadvantage for the RS in terms of performance (lap times) compare to regular GT3. And one way to make up for that is huge down force.

I'm hoping it'll be on par with prior GT3 RS's, adjusting for the 991 price increase (which happened across the board).
