That has to be one of the sexiest 911s I have ever seen. Will these also have the electric steering, just curious.

Question or this the new 2013 Cup ?

As far as i have heard (from reasonably good sources) there will not be an new RSR for the 2013 season.

If so then what is this?

is it possible that this is the all new 2013 Cup that Porsche will bring exclusively to the Porsche SuperCup?

The new 991 RSR will be exclusively run in the SuperCup series for 2013. Everyone else, including ALMS, in 2014.

Still some rumors circulating about homolgamation, all being GT3R-like, but I suppose that will depend on what exactly happens with the GA-ALMS merger, regulations in Europe, FIA/ACO... lots to come I'm sure.

yeah, agree - in particular when we put this into perspective with the fact that Porsche has ended their relationship with their top partners
- Flying Lizard in ALMS
- Felbermeyer-Proton on WEC
- Manthey in GT Open

is Porsche changing their strategy in racing?
will Weissach get engaged directly?
if yes than they need win which requires a BIG performance upgrade of their platform to be successful

is that what we see in these pictures?

Porsche Factory along with Manthey Racing is rumored to start development of the 991 GT3 RSR in the 2013 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC). First event will be in the spring of 2013 at Silverstone. 991 GT3 RSR will be made available to customers in 2014. We'll see.

Manthey will race it as usual...
They developed them all a year before being released to clients.
