I asked my US dealer's GM yesterday and he says he won't have more info until next month. Seems inconsistent, but hope the Darius scoop pans out!

Only the extra 25 hp can't (alone) make a similar difference. And in reality we can expect a 3,1 sec 0-100 in the real world since as you know P. is always conservative. Just close to 650 S and Speciale (at least up to 100km/h) and faster than a regular 458 Italia.Impressive...
0 to 200 km/h is the more relevant KPI for this kind of power cars.

I hope we will be at max. 10.0 s for the new RS ... anything above would be not competitive with the 488 GTB announced in 8.3 s...

all the RS aerokits and bigger wing downforces will require
a loot more hp to be faster than a less aero-weighted GT3

so if +25 only ponies i ll pass but waiting you on the beautiful
lake of garda hopefully very soon

I'm guessing lower/better gearing may reduce Vmax a little too, but make it more urgent everywhere but the autobahn.

I ordered one gt3rs yesterday, dealer in germany confirmed 500hp and heard from several sources that the gt3rs might be limited to a number of around 500 cars due to short production circle

Sorry, well this is what i meant: I got an allocation of the dealer (out of 5). Configuration will be only possible later whenever Porsche reveils details. They expect the cars to be configured shortly, production starting shortly and delivery in summer 2015. About Geneva no information yet.

more interesting was that i read something about limitations to 500 here yesterday and i called him today and he confirmed something about 500 limitations (he is not into the internet - he declined where he got the information from but it sounded very familiar to him)

All I need is a photo of the Lava Orange and Mystery Purple with the Titanium VS other accent colors, delivery time and exact price. The rest we already know.
