Really quite lovely on track. The lack of aero vs 3RS means you have to hustle the thing as it obviously doesn’t have the grip levels. But the manual box with less aero and the phenomenally responsive combo of the LWFW and NA motor really makes for wonderfully engaged laps and loads of fun. The sound is fantastic, and it has such a predictable and playful character. The entire package just puts a huge grin on your face. What a car. What an overall experience. sad that most will be low mileage queens, these machines truly come alive when pushed

Yes I'm having them PPF over the decals. Someone wrote that their decals were ruined from tire debris, so I decided to just PPF over everything.

The small issue is that if you look closely, it looks like PPF over the decals. Small outlines of the decals under the PPF. On very hot days it’s fine because the PPF gets soft and you don’t see the “air bubble” ring around the decals. And for pictures it’s okay and if you are more than 5 feet away.

I had it for a while because it took like 4 months to get the decals. And then redid them.

Do the decals come off when redoing the PPF for any reason...? That'd be one of my concerns as well.

Nice! When I heard Porsche describe this as “not a track car”, I immediately imagined this would be a fun car on track

Everyone with cars is driving them. We’re all talking about other things because Porsche has yet to deliver our cars.

With such a high value car, which insurance companies you work with? I spoke to hagerties at werks reunion and the guy said to share the vin as soon as I have it to get the quote and the process started. I am new to $+500k value vehicle so any inputs would be great. All my current vehicles are through geico …

My 2024 GT3 also had RS in the VIN but it showed up with my insurance as a GT3 and had no problems with ordering parts since it was recognized as a GT3. The S/T is not yet showing in either data bases.

For my RS I gave my Allstate rep my vin# and simply used that for my insurance. When I looked into getting insurance for market value it was crazy. I just insured the car based on Msrp. Now can I buy an RS with a Msrp of 340k prob not. I am just not paying 7k a year instead of 2.5k / My ST I ll prob do the same thing.
If you find some good quotes plz let us know ! I still have until Dec for my delivery.
Thx
Matty
