That's a tad harsh.. It's a little bit OTT yes but Senna it isn't to be fair.....

I had the pleasure of at least 5 laps in a senna, it rearranged my thought process of what a car with huge aero could achieve, so much so, if my number came in it would be one of my top 5 cars I buy straightaway.

I hope it looks better in its final finish,sorry but that rear tail looks plain daft on a hot wheels road car.

If Batman drove a 911 it would be that one.

Yep.. big news was the 963.

Probably a state-side show for the release, or just online media event.

I like the turn-down tips…. Would be cool if they are an option… looks like the tips I can fit to my GT4..

I wonder how many desperate to get one would be willing to sign an affidavit to solemnly declare they had to keep it for a minimum of two years ? Very few I suspect !

I’m not in the desperate camp, but if this was a condition of purchase, I would have zero issue with it.

I would happily own a Senna - saw one this week and it looked striking - am sure it is great to drive.

Would happily sign a letter that I won’t sell a car for a couple of years / or that I will only sell back to the dealer at no more than list price for x years - no issues with any of that

I think in this 911 series the standard GT3 is all the car anyone would need even for regular track days. You can drive it on public roads without feeling too self conscious and carry luggage for a weekend away.
The new RS looks like an extreme single minded track monster which has no place on public roads IMO. A huge shame that most will be given to people who would never ever consider taking it on track.irked

Dont get all bitter and twisted taffy about car flippers,its nothing new and wont change,keep yer powder dry and when all this nonsense settles,grab yourself a bargain.
I have a couple of car park passes for our drivers parking if it helps at clm next week,see some proper cars flying around as intended,not road monsters.

Thats the ugliest Road porsche rear end i have seen so far,fugly at best,it will need to be a monster on track to make up for it.

We're catching the Eurotunnel Thursday morning and will be there by lunchtime. Might take up your kind offer of a parking pass, will see how it pans out. I'll give you a tinkle on your mobile when we get there.

I have to agree and as much as I would love a RS and I was informed on Friday I’m 1 of 5 on the shortlist I would still need to know a few things before I’d trade my 992

I’m at Goodwood and Snetterton next week and I can easy fit mine and my sons helmets and bag with a few days clothes in, now that would be a big problem having no luggage space
