I think the PDF text was referring to the engine bay not the rear lid. The car is as per the toy pic Macca posted - expect no surprises from Porsche... Except maybe Cruise control as an option

did anyone receive any invitation for the geneva show or reveal?
I'm actually in geneva for some family matters, and was wondering if 991 gt3 owners received invites or if there was a way to receive an invite to the show?

thank you

Correct. The "4.0" nomenclature is on a alloy pressed decal a fixed to the CF panel under the engine lid. This is what the slide show meant. The exterior of the car for 100% certain will have a vinyl type decal with "GT3RS" in smaller font than 997 GT3 font just like with earlier iterations (996 GT3RS. 997 GT3RS etc). It will not be known as 4.0RS.

I cannot take credit for setting this thread up I am sorry. Peter (TRAKCAR) started this thread :-)

I am eager to see it but afraid that I will want one. Its going to be virtually impossible for me to get one since I don't have a "relationship" and since I didn't order a 918.

For what it's worth, the rack now has the GT3 RS on it as a 2015 model. The GT4 is currently listed as a 2016 model only.

I'm not an 991 GT3-owner but I asked my dealer for a VIP-pass (They call it Green Card).
You can probably ask your dealer and they can email the pass to you.

With this VIP-pass you get access to Porsches Closed Vehicle Section and to the Porsche Bistro.

I'm trying to decide between orange or red.
I think red makes me look fat! What do you guys think?

In about 10 minutes:

Since 2007, Volkswagen has presented novelties of the Group's brands on the eve of the most important international motor shows. Chairman of the Board of Management Prof. Dr. Martin Winterkorn will again welcome national and international journalists to the Volkswagen Group Night in Geneva. This year, you can be there live. Today at 19:30 (CET), we will broadcast the event in live streaming

On the first press day of the Motor Show tomorrow, Porsche will celebrate the world premiere of two high-performance sports cars. Besides the Cayman GT4 there will be a surprise in store for you. If you want to view this before everybody else, you will find a live streaming of the presentation at the Porsche Newsroom tomorrow. We will be on the air at 11:30 (CET).
