Latinoaussie Posted 21October, 2021 Report Share Posted 21October, 2021 Not much slower around the ring than the current model GT3 and faster than the previous version... shut up and take my money$$$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WGA Posted 21October, 2021 Report Share Posted 21October, 2021 Will be pricey though. $350-400K on the road. 2 hours ago, Stepo said: And another good colour choice for the launch 😁 Looks like boring racing yellow is the launch colour again.

I was expecting at least $350k - too fast to charge less given the hierarchy of models that Porsche uses. Chuck a few options on the current GT4 and you're in the $280k range anyway.

donR Posted 22October, 2021 Report Share Posted 22October, 2021 Looks like they didn't hold back which is good to see. Probably close to 500hp when you see the terminal velocity on the straights, much faster than the normal GT4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris-p Posted 22October, 2021 Report Share Posted 22October, 2021 Hits 9000rpm a few times too which might suggest it’s got a rather special engine. Maybe even a slightly detuned GT3 engine? i know they said they could fit in because of the inlet manifold but given they have air intakes through the side rear window perhaps they found a way. I reckon $350k ish.... Also a bit of controversy over the lap time. I am hearing it could have gone sub 7 but he back off in a few spots...

WGA Posted 23October, 2021 Report Share Posted 23October, 2021 It’s a modified 9A2 engine from the existing GT4 with 500ish HP. It is not a GT3 engine. SS 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc968cs Posted 23October, 2021 Report Share Posted 23October, 2021 Given that engine punches out 550hp when running at 4.5l capacity.....if tuned well thats circa 470-480hp at 4.0L - plenty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I priced one up for shits and giggles. Came out at $301k I presume plus on roads, but not that familiar with Porsche pricing. Would be an amazing piece of kit. only 7hp less than the GT3 with the same motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cafe_racer Posted 15January, 2022 Report Share Posted 15January, 2022 Pre launch speculation from WGA. Surely there it no need to come back months later and correct someone. And the “I’m not here often”… JWM, Yeatesy and sleazius 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WGA Posted 19January, 2022 Report Share Posted 19January, 2022 Just had confirmation of 4 days at Spa Francorchamps in April with Porsche! First 2 days in a new GT4 RS and then next two days in a GT4 Clubsport. Very excited. Can't wait to drive the 4 RS at my favourite track and see if I can match my 3 RS lap time. cafe_racer, TheBaywatchKid, Skidmarks and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
