Looks like they've taken a look at the AMG GT Black Series and said "Right, f*ck it.... if they can do it, so can we" lol

Mental... i reckon they've shown it now - to gauge reaction and desensitise us, since AMG have showcased their monstrosity.

if its to get a lap time they have to do it, what else could then do over the 991.2 GT3 RS ?

I like it - hopefully lots of carbon to keep the weight at or below the 1.4 Tonne mark

I like it, no messing around with the aero on that. Hope they can keep the weight down though.

Looks like a boy racer special, utterly ridiculous spoiler on a road car.

Well I hate it and relieved that I have an RS WP..There won’t be overs on this IMO.

RS is about laptimes and track use, so there will be as it's faster.

GT3 non RS is the better road car.

you buy the right car for the intended use.

the 991.2 RS already looks over the top as a road car and is hard sprung.

most already say the 991.1 RS is the better road car than the .2 RS and that's not a good road car anyway !!!

My RS rides better than my GT3 did despite the stiffer springs..It has better damping and the Mags and CF suspension makes a difference.

I hope not... cannot imagine this as a street car with occasional track use, so will have to think about alternatives if this wing survives. I will got one if the final version is less extreme in terms of aero.

RS is for track... they should make a focussed for the purpose as possible.
RS used to literally be a homologated race car with road legal tyres.and some carpet.... at present its medallion on an open-shirt hairy chest..... so if this is more focussed for track great... its a tool for lapping fast... not Knightsbridge, Mayfair and Sloane Street.

Touring is for the street.

By narrowing the focus you'll get the right people buying the right cars for the correct purpose.

Have to agree with you. That rear wing is just plain wrong on a road car. The front aero looks great though IMO

that will be just the Mags wheels and PCCB advantage.

The CF ARB will make no odds. at the end of the day the RS is hard sprung more so than the 991.1 RS .
A lot of people hate the ride in the RS cars at normal speeds.

is what it is.

To my eyes this looks like obvious camo - but that may be wishful thinking wink
