Let's be honest if the GT4RS wasn't a thing and someone posted up that exact photo, saying it's the new Kahn demo car, I know the replies would be overwhelming negative.

There is some truth to this.
Techart did a kit like this way before 4RS was launched.., it was universally sneered at. Funny.

That colour is awful and doesn't do it any favours IMHO.
Seen other RS in other colours that look stunning

I like that colour ... go figure smile

But I still can't get an allocation from Leeds ... still not a good enough customer because I'm into the type of classic Porsches that they so rarely see ... and despite still owning the GT4 I bought new from them in 2015 with 30k on the clock after the CR I bought from them etc.

Porsche have managed to kill the buzz this car, with their allocation decisions and drip drip supply of cars, lol, but here you are anyway…

Lively (as in almost unsafe?) On those Cup 2s in the damp. Harry wasn't able to push it much. Good review, it is what it is a very very focused car.

116 decibels!! That is 4 short of a jet airplane at take off. I have said before that the noise in these must soon get very tiring and annoying.

According the Harry they are making 7k of them. That must be more than 981 GT4 numbers?

Looking forward to picking one up under list.

Probably will end up around the same as 981 GT4, but over 2 model years… plus Spyder RS for 1 model year.

It would be nice if there did end up being 400-500 of them in the UK. And hopefully plenty of used PTS options smile
