But if it's adjustable, it would be cool to set it to 35 or 40 mph with the touch of a button in an instant notice...

I guess we a minority, but the interior look adds so much to the total feel of the car. The interior in the picture looks to much "turbo"!
But no doubt this car will be epic to drive.

That higher Race PDK shifter is inconsequential...if you pardon the intended play on the word! But I like its looks and will remind everyone of the sequential one on the Cup cars!

And the GT3 specs
Horsepower 475 hp at 8250 rpm
0 - 60 mph 3.3 s
Top Track Speed 195 mph

Those numbers are pretty disappointing. What's it have that we aren't hearing/reading?

The price increase is interesting. 33% higher than GT3. More than TT and almoat TTS placement. Can't blame PAG. However, I am not convinced on the value besides being an RS.

Will still take 1RS but likely not for long. May add 997 GT2 and 991 GT3 or enjoy the 7.2 GT3. My bet is that I'll be tracking less.

We all know red is slowest and for people who don't know cars.

See post#1.
I could have been more accurate describing the color as flower pot orange.
I actually like it because I like flower pot orange a lot, I like Dutch orange, Dutch flowers and pots.
