BONUS PICS time!
Wheel center:
Shifter looks same height as the GT3 to me:
Oops, the show car seat is already showing some wear (to be expected given all the entry / exits, but this was DAY 1 of the show!):
Proof of harness pass-through under the seat, not that anybody was doubting it on this Euro car:
Still lots of exposed seat mounting bits:
The seats JUST miss the bar when they're all the way back. Nice tight fit:
Factory rolled fenders for tire clearance:
Rear view visibility. You can see between the roll bars and under the wing, phew:
Yup, sticker in the back, too:
No room to lower on the front coilover (as far as I can tell), but plenty in the rear:
Odd that there is no deviated stitching in the loop around the alcantara! This is different than the GT3. My guess is they don't want the orange stitching on top of the orange microfiber:
More height comparisons with an iPhone 6 front and rear:
Checking out the front fender vent:
Can't adjust the wing angle as far as I can tell. Not that you would want to...
Trying to sneak some peeks at that titanium mid exhaust section:
These tails look darker than the GT3, no?
Color-matched CS bar:
Special side markers to match those wide fenders:
Frunk liner is carbon fiber!
Man those are some bright seat centers... not sure I could get used to that:
Block nozzles (not sure if they're standard, but I assume so):
Love the black LEDs! I'll have to get a set for my white GT3:
Car looks good!
And has some good company, too:
Phew, that's all for now... if you want anything else, let me know as I probably have a pic of it somewhere.

I thought I read somewhere that the RS paddle pulls are 50% shorter than that of the GT3 ? Thanks for the great pics. Looks like I won't need my GT3 frunk hood protector.

Nice pics - thanks. Do you perhaps have a rear-view mirror view for the GT4 as well? I'm interested in just how much the rear view is obscured by the wing.

Thanks! Nice to be able to give something back after absorbing so much info around here...
They did not feel 50% shorter... they did feel a little softer though and less "clicky". I suspect the 50% comment was relative to the regular 911 (similar comment was made on the original GT3 shifters).
Oops, I knew I forgot something. Sorry, I don't have that one.

You are the man, best information to date. I wish my SA could provide me with 10% of what you did in one post!!!!

8800 RPM redline confirmed (less red area that some of the earlier stock photos showed):

Looks like the front side marks are curved and will not work with the standard 3 side marks ? I ask this as I will want my RS to have clear rather than the expected DOT orange..
