and be aware, the car is $204,000 + US but it's a 2700# 400 HP GT3. [and exchange has worsened since i calculated this]

 

Isn't the GT3 pretty much already 400bhp. What changes have they made?

 

I agree, comparable hp...Looks like a $90,000 Atkins Diet recipient...

 

 

Looks good from the 3/4 plan... Can we get a profile shot?

Is it running 315s in the back there?

 

that roxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx! Alois said it was RS retro!!! righteous!!! but still not worth 204+

imagine that wing treatment on a GT2!! can anyone photoshop it ?? thanx

 

The thing about changing wings is the chance you upset the aerodynamic balance of the car. At one point I was considering the RS CF wing, but after realizing the front nose is slightly different on the RS vs. the comfort model, there would be a chance that the balance would be worse than if I leaved things as they were designed by the masters at Porcshe. I suppose I could change the nose too and then things might balance out, but what's really the point??? I like the cohesive look of the car as it was meant to be and my bank account is no worse for wear... :-)

The money could be better put to use towards a sequential shifter and still be 4-5K ahead...if you were to buy the wing and nose of the RS....

 

GT2 wing is perfect for the car, why mess with a good thing?

Besides, the duck tail provides much less downforce.
