Long time lurker and first time poster. Hello everyone, and thanks to all of you who taught me a thing or tow about these cars. Been driving them for a while but it was time to post.

I don't know if the RS leak is real, but it seems to have "turbo" style side intakes? Or am I seeing things?

"Pit Lane" function will be as useful as the Center-locks.

Ram air intake, as seen on 997 and 991 RSR. No snails in the RS is what they're telling us...

Me likely.

Gameplan:
1. New RS comes out - all in the DE championship buy 991 RS and sell their old .1 or .2 RS
2. Audipwr buys .2 RS
3. 991 RS becomes old news
4. Audipwr buys 991 RS

Then I have 2 RS = winning

I do think the front fender vents look killer. I like the color as well.

Looks great. It might not have a Mezger but at least it has motorsport intakes..

Pit lane switch on a street car is called a school zone button

It's going to be incredible. Looks incredible already esp with the wing and Turbo wide hips. The front fender vents are function/design genius and I bet others will copy it.

For some reason, the 4S wide doesn't look wide enough on 991s. Turbo takes the j.lo cake. I saw this also on Chris Harris' twit.

It's missing the channel in the roof as seen on prototypes and informed renderings.

So you guys prefer cars almost or completely out of warranty over new MSRP?

RS will trade down 18 months post release - I'm gambling on it at least
