Anyone have any news on allocations for the RS? I have heard very limited maybe only 2 for even the largest dealerships in the US. Anyone have any new info?

My dealership told me they had 3 guaranteed allocations for the RS, customers that put deposit recently are not guaranteed for delivery.

There is little in this world that is guaranteed except death an taxes.Especially when the product we are talking about has not be officially launched nor do dealers have actual allocations or information on spec/price at this time. I expect that will all change over the next few months....

It seems to be planted pretty good, but so is a GT3.

No clue to the lap time?

Would a gun rack fit well on the back of that huge spoiler?

It will be a NA motor no turbo confirmed by a Porsche executive. Client of mine, and that's all I will confirm bottom line no turbo!

Last one no turbo is what I've been told. They tested it but decided for whatever reason to go NA.
