So..... read a couple of people of late say that anytime now will be the unveiling of the new car, general web mooching doesn’t show up anything...

Common consensus is that it'll be announced at Geneva.

Yep, I image the official launch will be Geneva as usual but I suspect the chatter will ramp up significantly any time now......

Everyone will want it. Mega bunfights, hair pulling, pinching and stamping feet. Its going to be embarrassing, if witnessed. hehe

Would anyone on here swap their .2 GT3 for an RS? Suspect that will be the best route to getting one.

I know Taffy66 has mentioned he's hoping for one. I can see it making a lot more sense if you have a PDK than a Manual.

To confirm- I had been offered the choice of either a GT3 or .2RS.. I chose to wait for the .2RS, can’t wait if what I’m hearing is true...

I trust what my DP told me face to face, I have bought a lot of cars from him and have no reason to disbelieve him.

Will they not offer it with a manual? I think somebody on here said that they would.

PDK only. Think that we wil ALL be surprised with what they produce, it could be quite special if what ive been told/read is true in regards to the power of 550bhp 4.2L, possible limited numbers

‘Possible limited numbers’ - have you ever thought about a career in comedy, with sarcasm like that you’d clean up on BGT...........

The GT3RS on PH never gets the excitement/focus the 3 gets. Guess most see the GT3 as an everyday car and not as lairy as the RS.

Must admit I've been lucky enough to have a GT4 and RS this last two years, so two very different cars. The 4 will be going in the spring as unfortunately it does not get used enough and I have a project on the go.

So why get rid of the 4 first? It's not a patch on the RS

Fingers crossed for the 991.2 RS

I wonder how many .2 GT3 owners will get an RS, possibly the people that received their GT3 in the first wave will have a better chance because they'll be higher on the DP's prefered list?
