Sure, but fun street driving is doing more with less...
There's is the 450HP BGB upgrade.. Lighter..
But yes, if you can get one its a better investment than GT4 I suppose.

That didn't take long now did it? He must be reading RL on the iPhone between interviews. 
It's too bad about the 918 program really because the end result is damaging the GT brand IMO by creating an artificial profit center for a very small subset of customers, jacking up prices for a much larger set of core GT customers, distorting true demand, and ultimately frustrating a lot of potential GT buyers, whether it be those that overpay and regret it later, those that are forced to chase around for available cars, or those that just can't be bothered and go buy another manufacturer's offering. It's also very damaging to dealerships trying to build a loyal customer base. I've yet to buy any Porsche from any of my local dealers and that's not for lack of trying.

so from 2016 till q1 q2 2017 they can build 991 R and
an additional 1600 RS
this would fill their GT production 2500 cars per year capacity until Geneva 2017 GT Turbo presentation and push as much as possible to regular mini turbo Carreras
Well done and btw great car the R

I believe the NA GT4 AP is talking about is the GT4 RS and perhaps we get very lucky and they decide to stop protecting the 911 and put the 4.0 in it at the factory. It actually fits with the performance gap given the 991.2 will be the GT2 and GT2 RS.

Direct report from my dealer today -
He spoke to the mothership - -every 918 owners appears to be saying YES to this car,...
Roughly 250 will come to states; - expects possibly a handful to be available for us mortals.
So - likely I'm out, and don't get one.

I'm just here to lurk, give my opinionated posts, make videos, and look for inside information from members like you so to satisfy my daily car dosage
