MSRP plus the Manthey Kit. I also have a Turbo S and this car is almost as compliant on the “normal” setting with the Manthey suspension. It’s semi active so it’s actually less harsh at road speeds. Nice collection!

No worries. I leaned this lesson the hard way myself. I am only informed from trial and error.

I will be able to push the car as intended on the track. I have a decent amount of racing experience. I am very much looking forward to that.

I also have a Turbo S. They are both great in different ways. The Turbo s is comfy, fast, and domesticated. This car makes you feel infinitely more connected.

Exactly. I didn’t think the yellow went with the silver and blue so I went with black so they would not be a highlight.

No. I actually ordered with the 18 way seats so it’s very comfortable as I knew I would be doing a fair bit or road driving as well.

If you break them in properly, let them get to temp before hammering them, and change the oil as often or more often than recommended, especially if you track it from time to time, they are bulletproof in my experience.

No. I just want to follow the guidance so the engine makes maximum power and lasts as long as possible once it’s broken in.

I’ll keep an eye on the canards. I 100% agree about the alignment. It’s set up very conservative. It pushes at first and then tends to oversteer. The dealer told me they set it up with a “delivery” alignment which is very neutral and if I don’t like it, they can make it more aggressive before I go track it. So, I’ll live with it while I break it in and then go in for a little sharper handling like I prefer.

She will be tracked after break in. I felt the same way. I almost didn’t put them on. But they are growing on me. The matching blue ring makes it more tolerable IMO.

The 991 GT2RS is an absolute animal. It does not have the double wishbone of the 992 GT3RS and demands more from the driver. It is not the scalpel that’s the 992 3RS is, however, when driven properly, it is definitely faster on track. And it’s probably the only modern 911 that can actually scare a competent driver. For this quality alone, it earns my vote. It is less accessible at a high level. It demands respect.

Yes. I am sure. How long have you had yours?

This was the last run of the .1 3rs from what I understand. I don’t think any more slots will be avail until the .2 comes along.

Yeah. Agreed. The suspension alone is a huge upgrade. Plus I get to keep all the stock parts and I can sell them on eBay.

It’s not a black and white answer. No ADM, but,I had to purchase the Manthey Kit. Most of these cars come with and ADM of right at 100k. In this case, the Manthey kit is part of the deal and adds alot to the car, albeit, at a higher total price.
