myGT3RS is an unknown quantity at this point
Completely agree.

Wonder how many without graphics will add 4.0 graphics to their 3.8 RS

Also just a matter of time before aftermarket (or original RSR) riveted flares and wheel extenders are out and are bolted on current RS's.

Not sure how they can be sold out yet. Some us dealers won't get their allocations until early this week.

And you know some dealers are holding back to get
A premium.

or you could pick up a 7.1 3RS for 100, do a 3.9, and have 500hp but that's beside the point.

this car should tick enough boxes for 500 people

Just got official response from PNA. No PTS on the 4.0. If any one has heard differently from their Zregional Rep (not you dealer). Please post. If true this will really suck. It makes no sense for Porsche to do this unless they feel that PTS qty will be so high that it will be unmanageable.

Sorry for the typo's above. I'm using a mobile version it won't let me edit PRS to PTS and the Z word is Regional Rep.

Little bit of info:
I'm getting PTS. I hear it opens on Sept builds for the US. I am placing my order accordingly. Not discussing color or specs as too many people change ordgers, etc. I will post pics when it comes.

Several people have posted on value and worth. Just an FYI to the US market, I have almost been offered $50k over to sell later. That might give you some idea as to interest. Quality dealers should not sell at a dime over sticker. If they do, they should lose their best customer. I've bought a pis load of Porsche's, so if my dealer wants to charge me market, then they ought to be willing to lose with me on the bad deals? Price is MSRP and I've earned the right to pay that and no more. Ok, off my soap box.

I have a friend that wants one. Deposit paid tomorrow. If anyone knows, send me a PM.
