Ok, the 918 owner replied. He hasn't heard anything from his dealer yet on the car. I told him they won't know any specifics about it and if can get one until March.

R or RS or whatever limited lwt cars. ppl buy them only bc it's limited
i see many ppl here on this thread discuss WEIGHT.
pls... guys, look at RS orders, most have ac, led lights, leaterh up to wazoo, fake and self peeling CF interior trim, front lift, radio, gps. all of those are not needed. engine, gearbox, lsd, steering wheel, and maybe a seat and belts. that's all
if you are really into it.
if you cant make onto your drive way, hit the damn lip or just move to a new house.
ac, take your shirt off. show off the pec and abs
radio, what are you listening to? presidential debate joke or do you enjoy hearing another major city got blown out by isis? the less you hear the better it will be.
gps? hell i get lost driving to work every other morning. u may think i am kidding. but i am not. so what, you are lost, keep on driving when you run out of fuel call the wife. i do that all the time. no prob.. i drove from T Hill race way home (i need to go south), i noticed i was off when i saw signs that said OREGON border. that didn't bother me one bit.
so until you delete all these options, why are you all so concerned with the LE, special, purist car?

oh, you must not be talking to me. my 991 GT3 RS is officially the lightest car they ever produced on the assembly line. not only because I ordered it without AC and radio since I am sure others have as well, but also because factory forgot to put Porsche Crest on the hood adding a few grams of weight saving to the build

We all have different interest but I have to agree with Mooty. The whole idea with RS is less is more.
I still hope they go bananas on the weight reduction on the R. It will help to shave cost for the next RS.
Wonder if it would effect sales if 991RS would be offered as no option car? No PTS and all the other stuff.

u want to play for 49ers' but damn, i really like green bay helmet... well too bad.
the point is not the car. the point is IF "R" or "RS" is to be a purist car as what it's claimed to be, then let's focus. i dont know "R" yet, but i know "RS". i know the option list forward and backward, 90% of the option are neither here or there. you just dont need it.
alum colored pedals... yes, i always look at my versace as i mat the throttle.
fake CF parts. how many of you really seen truly high end CF parts. that's soemthing else, not the plastic with CF looking weave.. that doesnt do deadly squat.
deviating stitching... for crying out loud, what is wrong with just plain black.
is lava stitch really purer or faster than gray? maybe they are. but i am not that fast yet.
I don't agree with this . I wish these cars were truly lightweight (like my old Brumos RSR for example ) but those days are long gone . These modern cars with airbags , electronics , safety regulations etc weigh so much anyway what's a few kg for air conditioning going to change ?
pccb for example, i am too cheap for that. but i understand their benefit and having that option is wonderful. same for lithion ion battery. lift, we can argue all day, but i am wiling to concede.
what i can't get over is leather edged floor mats. leather AC vent slats, lousy bose ear bleeder... really???
i am just saying that if a manufacturer wants to do a hardcore purist car with such low production number, why please everyone. just do it
who's seinfeld again?
