Does the 4 and the Rs both run the same sticky tyres?
Ish...

I believe both come with Dunlops or Cup 2s. It's a lottery which one you get and not all comparison tests are running the cars with the same tyres - quite common for one to be on Dunlops and the other on Cups.

I've also been told (though could be wrong) that the 991 RS Cup 2 tyres are a slightly different compound than the regular Cup 2 tyres...

Yeh I have no doubt the Rs is faster it has to be but 3seconds is an impressive difference in a lap time hence questioning the tyres .

I recall Years ago I spent a fortune upgrading the motor in my 500kg track car gaining an extra 70bhp and a shed load more torque the car was ballistic but I didn't find a second over a lap , but later went 2 secs quicker bolting on better rubber .

Well Porsche Chester have two now in stock too (£110k each). Given I tried to get a list price one from them, the email giving me this "opportunity" was a bit cheeky! One is that blue GT4 with the horrible decal all over it and yellow cage, and the other is the green viper that was posted on here not long ago. Flipper-t-flip!!! Sure they are really proud to be selling cars for double profits by allocating to flippers!

Is that a basic spec one? Looks like it has all you need so what is a normal spec?

Actually, what does radio preparation mean? Does it not have a radio? Looks like it has PCM in the pictures.

That's quite a drop- the seller would probably only yield £89k. Good car to enjoy track days in.

And March will likely bring plenty of supply so JZM want this gone.

I think they are trying out these video presentations; needs a bit of polishing!

I am buddy, just not from them. They emailed me because I'm on their list should a GT4 allocation come up; this isn't what I'd class as an opportunity.

it's not very low really is it ?

it's only a £69k list car and as a track hack all one needs I guess, great car for the track day hero.

it's £25k over list, that is prob more than some of these daft £85k list price cars which don't fetch £110k !

Despite having CS its a very basic spec car, not even PCM. New price would have been what, £70k? Still £23/24k mark up.

Bit odd if you ask me. If you intend flipping a car you at least make it desirable
