If the 718r has the gt4rs engine, but can have lift I would love one!

Sadly i would imagine the odds are stacked against me.

Hopefully they do… and I hope they build loads, and the market will get more saturated, and other cars will be available to buy.

I suspect he did a typo and means there will be an option for a manual in the RS.

Rennlist is rumouring a run-out limited and numbered car a la the 991R, but with no mules spotted it seems everything is just guesswork.

I wouldn't take one YouTuber's comment as truth, especially one with no real relationship with Porsche.

Thats the Spider RS. UK dealers know of it, will temporarily replace the 718 Spyder through to end of the production run.

They're talking about that too, but Schmee mentioned a 718R in a video I believe so they're talking about that as well.

So what's that, a GT4RS without the wing? To be sold by dealers to their mates and bought back for sale above list?

Its mad really that Porsche dont just stand back and slap 50k on the RRP of a GT3
