Now been removed?! Hummmmm. Maybe Porsche didn’t like them posting it.

Looks like the 981 GT4 CS launch car to me. Not a new car.

the picture is just regarding a Porsche unveiling - yes its an old GT4 Clubsport, I can see that.

To me its a clear hint of a GT4 premier and too close for Porsches liking a its since been removed.

Last time out the road car was launched at a motor show (Geneva) and then the Clubsport was announced at LA in time for the next race season.

You’ll remember though that the car first was intro’d without any car show... just press release from Porsche, inclusion in a video game, Real racing 3?...which was part of the co-promotion and then all the videos and reviews.

I can personally see Paris for the Road car and then LA for the race car..... but.... if the 992 is set for Paris maybe Porsche will just want to have all focus on that? Or maybe they won’t care as these are not cross-shopped anyway... so maybe we’ll get 992, New Macan official launch and 718 GT4 in Paris, which was was were the 718was originally launched iirc.

As ever... nothing new... lets just wait.

Also curious about this. Will bet that the 982 Spyder is launched in white, though.

Hope not, white & black are the 2 most boring colours there are! Though a metallic black is far better looking when polished/clean...

Personally, white has been my favourite colour for the GT range over the last two decades, it just works and speaks motorsport.

That said, Lizard Green with the Satin Arrum wheels is a current favourite too.

why does white speak motorsport, no cup cars are white ,no lemans cars are white, no GT4 race cars are white.

in fact you never see a white motorsport car ! they may come out the factory white but all have crazy wraps.

It's not a legend. They leave the factory white.

Like white vans, cheapest colour and allows easy sticker coverage/vinyl wrapping. Plain white isn't motorsport, it's boring...

Hahahaha. Wow. What a bunch of keyboard warriors. Chill out. It's my personal feeling, everyone is different.

I'm surrounded by cup cars and GT4 clubs port's being built, they're all white with no livery.

GT3 RS 4.0.....mostly white.

Most 996 GT3's.....white.

Etc etc.

I stand by my own personal opinion, otherwise known as "up yours" to the lot of you. laugh

What is with that rear diffuser? Isn't that the same as the 718 GTS?
