675LT is the best car I have ever driven. 991GT3RS is not close but in theory should only be half the price, so that makes the 991RS a better choice for 80% of people...
for similar costs (market is nearly 300k RS vs 395k for 675LT) there is no way anyone driving them back to back can not like the 675LT better.

I have a new goal to pursue... However by the time I get there McLaren will likely have a quantum leap of that model....Which may work in my advantage for cost/depreciation $$ for the 675LT
Trying to by a plane now.... But the 675LT fogs that,,,

Yesterday I had my first encounter with a 675LT in Atlanta...

"Preuninger confirmed that a new GT2 RS would be built but said it would not be for the existing series of the 911. Instead, it will come at the end of the life of the Gen 2 car, probably in 2018.
The previous 997-based GT2 RS offered 611bhp in a package weighing just 1370kg and is widely regarded as the most extreme 911 ever to goon general sale."

I was hoping a lot of carbon and magnesium would equate to less than 1,400kg and more than 670hp but would that step on the toes of the 960?
The more I think of it, the more I realize that Porsche shouldn't build a GT2, or maybe use the GT2 name on the 960, it makes much more sense. Since the Turbo's acceleration and top speed are almost the same[and sometimes better] than a 2-wheel drive lightened version of the same car(the GT2) and the GT3/RS would be close in terms of lap times. They should reuse the GT2 name for a 488/675 fighter than can be lighter than a 911 and have better handling characteristics; basically a funner car to drive.
What do you guys think?

So would we expect a GT2 at Franfurt 2016? That would give them a lot of time to fill up the order books for the Turbo/S

IAA Frankfurt is a 2 year cycle, next is in 2017, Porsche releases GT cars at smaller events like Geneva or may be even LA, next Frankfurt you will probably see a production preview of the Mission E and a 718.

and GT for home track home or cars n coffee driving
They don t need nor would cheat anyone for selling
is just for keeping the customer attention continuously focused on the brand
in few words we need smthing to keep our eyes on the
brand regardless we buy this Macan or that 911
in a word selling is an indirect consequence
and GT Halo are there for heritage and Brand attention objectives
