Factor in the MSRP of a base GT3 RS and then add all those options, then $185k isn't that far off the mark. So, whether or not you think it's a rip off or not...well, I'm fairly sure that it isn't if you think like Porsche does. It makes sense though for the exact reasons I stated earlier.
Well I was under the impression from what my friend told me after his deposit for the 4.0 RS, is that it will cost about 250k CAD.

CAD? You mean CDN assuming that's Canadian dollars $250k CDN? Haven't you been reading this thread? Go back to the beginning and read the press release.

Forget about reading the beginning of the thread. It is what the dealer quote that matters. Confirmed that the car will sell at $211k CDN (my mistake for the CAD). Excluding taxes.

I'd be pissed if I was just delivered the ultimate GT, the GT2RS and then a month later hear Andreas Preuninger say this new 4.0 is an all time classic and the best GT ever. I still love my lowly 3.8

I LOVE this car! Looks lovely in white and I can't wait to see them buzzing around tracks. To me this is the ultimate 911!

I like the white, but not the white wheels. Too "Miami Vice 80's" for me. Black wheels please.

How long until these come available as aftermarket parts? Something tells me we'll see a temporary trend of 911 & GT3 owners that track regularly wanting to add them to their cars.

Of course, they would just make me look like a moron by putting them on my 911...but that's a whole other story

I would guess that you need to drill holes in the bumper cover to add these (need to be fairly committed to do that).
