That sound is awful. A base 2.7L NA Boxster without sports exhaust sounds much better.

Almost everything up to around 9 minutes was fake noise. Sounds totally didn't match the car's dynamics. And not once in those 9 minutes did the brake lights illuminate!

At least the builder is fun.

How come they have no stitching in Miami Blue? They have seatbelts in MB now.

I disagree with the plan to ram it up the US customer price wise, I would've included the Weissach package in the base car and left it at 299k, price alone will control demand and prevent flipping, I don't see the car on the US configurator, is it there?

It's probably still too cheap and will carry an ADM (and sell out instantly).

Then they'll go with a $300k base MSRP on the .2 gt3 rs. They should go as high as it takes to make all 'ADM' belong to them, instead of to dealers and flippers.

So I wonder if people will be willing to pay over $400k with an ADM for this car. That's nose bleed territory but I guess some might because they want the newest toy for C&C.

Played with configurator a little, its about $306K if optioned just like my GT3RS.
That's $118K more..

I don't like any of the colors so it would be black / whitegold wheels making it 301K but still, good luck to the flippers making a quick buck and I guess that is the point made by Porsche and what we will have to pay for.

So $300K +++
I need a good think on that..

Think there will be a lot of black ones...
Colors don't work for me either, and others have said the same.

You made a better comparison than I did earlier. How is this car $118k more appealing than a Gt3rs.. I understand that not everyone is as a diehard NA freak as I am.. but this turbo motor, with that lackluster sound, is not really that much more desirable than a high-revving exotic NA power plant at all to me, despite the bazooka power delivery. If they made a 10k rpm Uber exotic revving NA engine with 575-600hp and called it the gt3RS CUP or something like that.. then maybe this price would make sense. But $100k+ for two turbos and some farkles ?...'mmm, no.
