Yeah! but the McClaren is to replace the Ferrari.

For Porsche, there is no substitute.

if they make a GT2 RS, then what? a Caymen RS? Boxster RS??

I just hope:

1. Sensible price
2. Not parts bin engineering
3. RS suspension, SC/TC.
4. Not an end-of-model "special"

3.8L

PDK

more of a non-road legal variety car, like the 599 XX or FXX...

Exactly. I'll include my response to BMWs latest track car, from back in November.

Turbo S is only $160K. In fact, it is a couple thousand cheaper than if you were to buy a regular Turbo with the same equipment.

I heard from my dealer months ago that there is going to be a GT2 RS. It is supposed to go in production when the GT3 RS goes out of production. They have not heard from corporate if there will be a regular GT2, just an RS.
