Finally!


Looks like a GT4 to me....Doesn't really have an "RS" look to it though (larger wing, front fender aero).

Interesting to see the side intake reduction, pull back. Or the exhaust placement; similar to that spyder pic in the other forum.

Larger side air intakes with added fins, larger rear defuser. Not a fan of the white taillights.

Now, the big question. NA or turbo.

Those are std 718 intakes (smaller than 918 GT4), the front bumper looks like it came of the 718 GTS and the tailights are not clear/white.

The rear diffuser is more prominent and looks more similar to the one of the 911R and 991.2 GT3. So presumably more downforce than 981 GT4.

wish it was a different color to get a better look at the lines, (meaning the side scoops and rear end/exhaust) looks like a real possibility though

Smoked tail lights suggests customized, does the license plate indicate this is a test car or personal car?

Could it be an enthusiasts attempt at "updates"?

Spy shots are commonplace...I'd hate for that to happen though.

It's been posted on other social media outlets as well. I saw a post in the Porsche gt4 Facebook group about the same time you posted.
