yeah 2010 model actually...should see the first few in sept 09. MIGHT have PDK but will for sure have direct injection, 440-445 hp (stated/claimed/etc) and will either be 3.6 or 3.8- and will probably have a sunroof just to **** people off. a few of us on here are probably already on the list for the next RS...I am.

unless the next GT3 is a sub sub mini compact like smart car, you need a wider or taller garage

that's a whole LOT of uncertainties.
3.8L would be very nice.
3.6L i would not be interested. if we got RMS now, imagine the stress of pumpoing 440hp out of a 3.6L N/A motors. you'll have leak up to wazoo.

they might be saving the 3.8 for the RS. it will be a new engine block so maybe no RMS leaks.
