Thumbs up Only 918 Porsche 918's will be built.
Yep, only 918 Porsche 918's will be built. My uncle just got off the phone with his personal Porsche representative in Germany who confirmed this along with some other information.

Oooh rarer than the CGT. Anything else worth noting about the 918?

Shouldn't you be taking a picture of a flying Porsche or something...

Only other info was that Porsche is offering a "Special Edition" for the Middle East market that will use the air intakes above the engine (the ones that pop up) as RPG Launchers!

So is this assuming Porsche won't sell all 918? They only built 83% of the CGT's they wanted to.

At $600k thats barely over $550 million in sales or 4200 gt3's. I'll assume closer to $750k sale price when equipped well.

I just don't see that market. The GT2RS is faster. hmmmm
