Carmine should be a standard (free) colour. It's the only red I'd choose. Couldn't bring myself to pay PTS prices for it however...

Yeah, I've really enjoyed it on my GT4 - it isn't hugely different from Guards, but when they are side by side, it makes Guards look orange...

I was told the new .2 GT3 Cup will be a 3.8L DFI. Therefore, I have a sneaking suspicion that the .2 GT3 will also have a 3.8 and not a 4.0

US dealers were told a few months back 3.8 and manual for 490-495hp. Don't know if anything has changed to make them go to the 4.0 but I guess time will tell.

Be very interesting to see if it's 3.8, what the max rpm is?

130hp/liter? That would be mighty impressive for a NA motor, if they can hold it together...

I think making the motors even more highly stressed is in nobody's interest - 4.0L makes so much more sense...

That would be sort of a letdown if it was a 3.8
