There is insanity then there is paying £50+k ove for a RHD 991RS, a car that is neither limited nor sure to be the end of it's type especially when there are LHD cars for a heck of a lot less even if one pays swiss prices. Still if money is no object why not....
Not limited?APOLO1 said:

, especially considering the performance difference is marginal.
On road, maybe, but on track whole new game...big lateral Gs..nos.....LeftHooker said:
But only 5 secs on the ring, less than a second per mile quicker! Given what Andreas said about the huge leap forward you would have thought performance would reflect that, but it does not seem to yet! Perhaps once the Ring dries up and they get some more laps in the gap will grow?
Like the GT4, very very conservative times and bhp.....like a lotAPOLO1 said:

Don't disagree, but then shouldn't that rule apply to the GT3 as well, therefore the gap is a genuine 5 secs between the two cars?
From what I know, in the real world taking into account the amount of aero, and the lateral G that the new RS can do, I would expect the gap to be double what is said above....sidicks said:

Indeed - At the Goodwood preview event, Andreas was very open that the claimed bhp was 'conservative'...Why would Porsche say the lap time is only 5 secs faster if it was more? Surely they would want to make as much noise as possible, and stick it to the GTRs of this world? We are told the whole point of these things having PDK is to get the quickest lap time possible, then you undercook it?

Oops, sorry. I think I pulled that figure from an Auto Express article so I should have known it was wrong 
Is it true that the liquid paint option is 5 figures?
I seem to recall that the liquid metal paint was €45k. I drove one at PEC Silverstone which had this paint option, while the car was staggering to drive, the paint didn't do anything for me...Is it true that the liquid paint option is 5 figures?
