just don't expect it to do much from a price point..me I would not want the inconvenience of taking up useful bin space.....
Stick in the bin with the 6RS u slated....then was gonna buy one when Steve Rance saw you off....then you slated them again....what tomorrow? Steve's B1tch again? Edited by APOLO1 on Saturday 23 August 22:05
I know the Canadian price apart from an outstanding issue on the seat choices. Car will be ok base spec so finally there will be no charge for nonsense like PCM.
However the following are certainly extra:
-several headlight options. (LEDs not cheap)
-PCCBS
-front lift
-usual interior trim extras...full leather etc. Like all of them this can be a lot if you want special stuff.
lots of little stuff is extra of course but I can't recall all of it.
As usual the car will be cheaper in North America.
OTOH we do not get cage or thinner glass even as an option, and the discussion on seats is important. The standard seats from the 997.2RS were the same as Europe, but those seats are now illegal here because of new airbag regulations. A variant of the 918 seats is being planned.

The LEDs are 7K, one option I don't understand. The 918 style alloy, this is the only real weight saving point, on the 918 due to the Mag alloy, they are 30k option, so is this price going to be carried over to the RS,? I have seen the RS, it had the 918 style alloys, not the GT3 style on the pic above. However the following are certainly extra:

The LEDs are a lot cheaper that that here but I don't understand them either. Wheels are still a question.RDMcG said:

nah, my view was right back in 03..
Ah so you 4 weeks ago had a momentary lapse of concentration and nearly bought the best example on the planet with just 1000 miles you were telling us about only to suddey remember you always hated them? Will this mean that the 991 you currently love will be the biggest dog you ever owned in 2020?
Maybe the 650s you slated 8 weeks ago will now be the best thing since sliced bread since you've (allegedly) bought one?
Fuk I can't keep up with this contradictory garbage .
Maybe we need Berty37 to posts some of you're best contradictions , you seem to scarper when he shows up.

I've not driven any of the prototypes, but I can confirm that the car is a much better drive WITH wheels than without. In fact I'd go so far as to say they are essential...
Useful to know that, and depending on the story this side of the pond I will certainly keep this front of mind. Thanks.sidicks said:

Given you are determined to resort to personal abuse rather than discussing the thread topic, any chance you can f*ck off?Will this mean that the 991 you currently love will be the biggest dog you ever owned in 2020?

Let's calm it down it's past your bed time and apolos gotta get up early to cool Andreas brekkie and fold his PJ's :-)
Tonight you've made 8 posts in this thread, none of which are on topic and most of which involve trying to wind up other posters, as if you were in the school playground.Let's calm it down it's past your bed time and apolos gotta get up early to cool Andreas brekkie and fold his PJ's :-)
