Considering my car pulled a 343 at the rear wheels before it was tuned and headers, etc.

https://rennlist.com/forums/987-981-...343-stock.html

I could see claims of 420 stock without much problem.

What I can't see is the 20k price increase. LOL. I will keep mine.

Sorry for the delay...i'm old school and don't think it appropriate sometimes to talk about booze on public forums but i couldn't hold it in any longer! Now back to our regularly scheduled popcorn eating.

Mr BGB speaks the truth

My cleaning lady cleans the Flacht washrooms and dosnt have access to the engineering room where engine specs are scattered about...
lol... I love this thread. Been following for months.

I created an account just recently in order to say a HUGE thanks to everyone who has contributed to this thread and made it so entertaining to read. Tons of useful information!

I jumped on a 718 GT4 list over a year ago. Can't wait for the official reveal

First mule I think I've seen with the led headlights. I know they don't offer them in Black on the 718 but in general the housings look a bit darker than 911 LEDs on the configurator

I think this is the most complete/uncovered 718 GT4 mule that we have seen

Pretty much everything is visible - even the side-scoops and center caps are on.

Looks awesome!

Just hope that the finished version will have the mesh in the bumper to protect the radiators

+1...totally agree.

I also wished they retained the dual center exhaust. IMO looks a lot better than the dual exhaust we have seen so far.....plus I wont be able to use the GT3 center muffler conversion

Not a fan of the new headlights on the 718 platform. Very angular. Look they belong on a Lexus.

Hoping they use the space for a real diffuser. I was really impressed when I saw the diffuser on the R8 recently. They route the exhaust to the sides to make room.

Looking much better, although the rear is still the weakest angle just like the 981. Looks like a very modern update, just like the 991.2 GT3 compared to the 991.1 GT3.
