I need help
Keep the RSA. it is fun on and off the track. A classic.

Get the 991RS. Because if you got the GT4 instead you would always wonder about the RS everytime you see it on the street or on the track....
You need to get the 991RS to scratch that itch. Otherwise you will be really itchy for the next two years...

What car would you rather have for a D.E weekend? RSA, GT4 or 991RS?

Got it in RS..

But can't know until I drive them all.

RSA probably. Safest also because Racecar and slowest the way it sits.
RS is to be test driven for sure.

It's in the works.
New Custom bolt in cage, AC back in, new interior and a milder exhaust. Sweet street car, perfect DE car and still PCA race legal for tech, but does not class competitively because 500lbs too heavy

Have Eclass 83SC for that...

So add RS.

Pretty sure I heard dampers from the GT3 in the evo video.

I love what I'm hearing about this car.

One thing that caught my ear...they are ESTIMATING ring time in the 7:40s and folks are printing that on headlines. Ring times have officially jumped the (left) shark....

I love that it's 6 speed only. While it's not limited production I doubt we'll actually see many of these things, which makes me sad.

If I had to guess, I think AP's reference to "future projects" and the possibility of PDK:

There may be a GT4 RS coming with X51 motor and PDK-S only. I think if you want Manual (as I do), this is the car to buy now.

I hope and vote that Porsche will/should give a PDK option to all the latte drinkers.
