Iron brakes are standard. PCCB optional.

Looks like the same PDK-S as the GT3 as far as I can tell...

3.9L?? Interesting! The "Performance" page still says 4.0L:

http://www.porsche.com/usa/models/91...e/performance/

I guess the 3.9L explains why it doesn't say "RS 4.0" on the back.

Maybe they're saving the 4.0 for an "RS 4.0" edition to be released in a year...

To be honest, I'm expecting something like a 991.2 GT3 RS 4.2 to end the 991 generation before the 992 hits.
