if you're thinking ruf, the koro 4.6 rm s should be on your short list:

480 hp, 2,508 lbs. available now, no waiting.

 

I like the idea of the car having the same creature comforts that we have now, with the addition of a better steering setup and (I agree with Macfly) 500 Hp. I think you need the Hp to keep the car ahead of the field that is probably already on its way down the pipe. Of coarse an RS version stripped out to a lower weight would be nice for the hardcore bunch.

 

Nice pipe dreams guys, but will you also be willing to pay the extra premium for 500bhp, CFP, Titanium, Sequential gearbox, aluminum body, etc...? The 997 GT3 without any of these exotic materials will likely cost ~$120k. Sounds like what y'all want for xmas is a 911 GT3 Challenge Stradale; at Porsche's profit margins they couldn't build a 360CS equivalent for $200k, would be more like $265k.

I'd love all that stuff, at current pricing - goes to show what I'm smoking.

 

Noel, that is exactly the sort of price point I'd guess they'll be looking at for the ultimate 911.

Andrew,

Porsche was at that price point before: 1998 993 turboS, MSRP at $150k. Unfortunately, even at that price, with twin turbos, Porsche could only deliver 426 HP and 3,240#.

I don't hold out much hope for your specifications. It'd be SWEET though.

anyone have pictures of what that integrated rollcage on the ruf looks like?

 

If Porsche can deliver a Koro specs 997GT3 for under $140k, I will place a deposit right now.

Otherwise, I might wait for the F430CS, but I will keep my lovely GT3.

 

All of the above and a Tubi-like exhaust note.
