Looks like GT3, means no wing now , nice colours though .. . Good marketing as track days are becoming costly and most do not want to do them .
Hardly surprising. Mean people keep posting videos of how slowly (except on the WOT straights) 992 GT3’s are driven.Edited by hunter 66 on Monday 25th December 19:53

Plenty of fast cars driven slowly on every trackday I’ve ever done. So what. Fair play for people having a go.
Holding people up lap after lap is not cool though. Which is a very different thing.Everyone pays the same entry. No one has any greater right. IME, if a car’s behind me into corners, several in a row, it’s quicker and I’ll go out of my way to let it past. My ego is not big enough to prevent me from being overtaken.

These are good points to make
Circuit driving should quickly ensure you know tha capabilities of you and your car. I’m always more than prepared for
faster cars and happy to use indicators to move off line.However
I don’t appreciate Gt3’s passing on long straights only
to go slow in twisty bits

Agree. Broader point is, no matter whether your are extremely fast or extremely slow, so have equal right to be on circuit, but in neither case should your pace be to the detriment of others. Consideration works all ways round.Circuit driving should quickly ensure you know tha capabilities of you and your car. I’m always more than prepared for

Does anyone know if there is an option that gets rid of that plasticy chequer plate style front corner of the dash/big flat bit above glove box and substitutes it for leather? It seems to be on every GT3 I've looked at but on the RS you can either have it as leather or race-tex. I think it looks really tacky and it's also on the top of the door trim.
As opposed to this in the RS:

Fair and completely agree. Everyone pays the same entry. No one has any greater right. IME, if a car’s behind me into corners, several in a row, it’s quicker and I’ll go out of my way to let it past. My ego is not big enough to prevent me from being overtaken.

The right seats if you’re going to drive it long distances…
Buckets are the best seats - also for long distances. My back hurts badly in the sofas after latest one hour. In the buckets (folding or otherwise) I can do five to six hours in one go and feel fresh afterwardsPersonally, I can drive 3-4hrs straight in the narrow Carrera GT type, fixed back carbon buckets. I can appreciate how or why not everyone would.
