If I get one I am bolting my Akrapovic headers & system straight on it and putting mad miles 🦍😝
that’s a beautiful piece of metal artwork!
I myself can’t decide between (in order favorite to least)
1) R1 RSR in Ti
2) Dundon Ti
3) Akrapovic Ti
I don’t think the RSR necessarily fits the character of the S/T, but the sound it makes is literally the best sound I’ve ever heard in a street car, like a F1. I also have heard there’s a ton of drone though, so trade offs to be sure.
Yes my dealership just confirmed that the watch is a 18k “standard option”. Good news is I had already accepted the total price not knowing I’m getting a watch. Now knowing I have no choice in the matter definitely makes me majorly irritated. My dealership has no control or say on it.
Porsche watches crack me up. A mechanical timepiece worth no more than about $1400 bucks for 18K

What a waste of 4 years of testing and development for the GT department then to just end up where they started! Lol
don’t get me wrong, I would love to have one at MSRP… but there’s not enough Kool aid in the world for me to believe any auto journo that says the ST is so different than a touring.

The car is marginally better than a Touring with a few differences along with being numbered and at MSRP sure but once you are talking about $200k+ ADM it's an easy pass.

I was raised on the sweet sweet P-Kool Aid so I never had a chance lol, and I messaged around 40 dealers before I was able to find a dealer that would give their allocation to an everyday enthusiast like myself with no established dealership relationship (and also not an extra $450K ADM to blow on a car - seriously that was one of the offers). It was a mix of luck, and sheer will - but I believe that this car is much more than the sum of its parts, and putting my hard earned $$ saved over decades where my mouth is. I’m not going to flip it, and I’m going to drive it like it was meant to be driven, so no garage queen here.

And you will enjoy every minute of it. Certainly don’t let the haters that haven’t even seen the car live much less driven it tell you it is just as good as a GT3 touring. So much envy and jealousy in this thread and that’s probably because by whatever means they don’t have the ability to get one. Same thing happened way back when the R was coming out.
Enjoy it, drive it and have a great time making memories in it. Can’t wait to see it. Make sure you post some pics.
