Is there going to be a special send of 991 car?

[BrntRubber]

Hi Guys,

Anyone know if there is likely to be a special send-off car? Sports classic, special 3RS, etc?

I’m hoping but unsure.

Speedster?

Was talk of a ultimate RS but seems to be quiet now

Which other meaningful 911 could they conjure up?

OK it's VAG group so anything is possible but apart from a random edition with a unique paint scheme and/or small power hike I can't see what else is left?

I guess they could make a truly lightweight GT3 RS with a full cage, full carbon body, no meaningful carpets, put every part on a diet and bin everything that is not required etc.

I would imagine the Speedster is the sendoff car.

Parts bin special that Porsche have used more than once on 911’s and Caysters. Nothing special,

I’d have guessed at something from Porsche Exlusive like the Sport Classic was the run out for the 997 but we have the Exclusive Turbo S.

They produced a cab version of the Exclusive turbo S too. Only 200 cars world wide. Mid engined 991 RSR soon for the lucky few.

25 UK cars according to people who get these special model allocations.

Agree seems unlikely that will happen I think. No mid engine looking mules running around and those have always meant cars to come. And anyway what would be the point of the road rsr? WEC homologation rules are so farcical Porsche got their car through without even needing an exemption so no road car in the format is needed and the whole point of doing that was to whack a great big diffuser onto the car which would never be possible to fit onto a road car.

Between the 935/2rs track only clubsport, gt4/spyder, speedster and given they are already testing the 992gt3, there's quite a lot on the plate of the GT department....maybe a further tuned up numbered 3rs or sport classic thing but not a full on midengine rsr job imo.

That's the spec of my Spyder ;-) just build the car you want like I do.

I wish! That would be amazing! I doubt it though

So is it now 100% it all ends with the Speedster?
