Default Extra stuff with RS

I was happy to find the racing harnesses (red), and the fire ext. in the car, in their original boxes. I did'nt know these were standard.

when i was chking out your car at carlsen, i did see the ext and one set of harness. i thought you supplied them. it would be cool if that's standard with the car.

can other RS owners confirm that?

I'm guessing some fellow after a late lunch with a few too many Bock's mistook your car for a ROW car.

Schmidts,

Did you get a US spec fire extinguisher or the European Clubsport version?? BTW, I also purchased my RS from Carlsen. I hope mine arrives with some extra stuff!

Very cool indeed. Does the harness even work, though, with the regular seats?

Looks like the larger Fire ext. to me

No, the belts are only meant to be used with the cage (I haven't unpacked them though)

Exactly! I hope that a fire extinguisher / harnesses is part of the standard Carlsen RS care package

That harness is worth $700 in Sweden (maybe a bit less in the US)... The Club Sport fire extuinguisher is worth more than the one you can order as an option. Congrats!

Porsche seem to be struggling a bit with GT3/RS US/ROW. Many people with the base GT3 got their cars delivered with the RS front spoiler too!

No extra stuff in mine. Check your seats - maybe they are made of carbon fiber too!
