So then, wat builds are the “lucky ones” speccing?
- WP and the Magnesium wheels are available.
- How many will still go for Lizard Green given the popularity in 1st batch I wonder

The great thing is if you go WP
and Mag Wheels even in Lizard green it will be one of only a few with that spec

I’d imagine if UK allocations are out and there’s less cars than expected OPC’s are asking the lucky few to keep it quiet for a while. There are probably some difficult conversations to be had and for the regular PH contributors you don’t have to be Sherlock Holmes to work out which OPC they use.

I’ve not seen Sherlock Holmes post on here,is he getting one

Yes I’d imagine those with allocations will know now.

I was at dealers Monday before I flew to Geneva,they had no idea then!

[Juno]

Could always get one of these!

£8k wheels, £12K WP.

That would sound about right,does the WP have the carbon anti roll bars as per GT2RS

Yes, they do. Here’s mine:

Cool I guess 3RS will be the same with WP

And the mag wheels are £10k each to replace if you kerb one as I understand it which is nuts.

I only know what I have read on here about the filter but it seems you need the WP weight savings to offset the weight of that?

Be interesting to understand what’s different on this second batch other than WP and filter, if anything.

I do prefer the look of the standard wheels,the Mag ones look a bit flat in profile and you woukd worry about bending one 10k each

It’s like whispers, £18k gets you a set of mag wheels. 10k each its not.

You can get a set of these but I still prefer the factory standard wheels! however the unsprung weight saving is preferable. How fragile are they?

I just very slightly whist parking hit the Kerb on one on the wheels on my 2RS. The mark was about 25% of your little finger nail. But because it had broken the edge on the magnesium it was not safe to repair. The new wheel and tyre from OPC was £10.400.00 Including all the bits.
If brought separately as say part of the WP they are much cheaper.

It is just ludicrous to try and justify £10400.00 for a Wheel and tyre, that’s £41600.00 for a complete set if bought as sepetate items from the parts bin!!!!!!!! OMG come on PORSCHE.

Puts me off the Mag Wheel option!

Even for Porsche that’s a monumental leg lift!

Can you order WP without the mag wheels?

That’s what I’d do and buy a set from Manthey and keep the OE ones for warranty renewal.

That’s the way to do it!

[Juno]

i’ll Stick my neck out and say all this talk of people specking cars is total utter nonsense,the dealers still don’t know what’s what yet!

Tosh utter Tosh

[Juno]

As previously said TOTAL UTTER HOGWASH,loads of comments about people who know people who have specked but no people who have actually specked to be seen. I know enough to know that I know enough to know that there is a lot of poetic license in these comments
