Talked to my local Porsche tech, the 21's are a mistake bone stock cars that are being tracked on the factory Cup 2's are rubbing and the fenders need to be rolled to clear the stock wheels/tires for track use.

No, MSRP starts at $175,900. Good luck finding one that's not already optioned to $250k, though.

They aren't $299k, that's a result of the up-to $150k markup that most dealers are putting on these. It's ridiculous and unrealistic, but the prices are already coming down as they're making quite a few of them.

Agreed, Porsche RS cars are some of the only cars that come from the factory with a truly flush wheel fitment.

They are fun to look at but even more fun to chase around COTA.

Is that you driving your gt3? Holy exhaust note is the gt3 completely stock?
Yeah, me driving my 07. It has a GMG center muffler delete but still stock headers, cats and side mufflers present. It screams at redline (8,500).

It's not 150K markup it's about 50-75K mark up. There's no new 16 RS for 150K MSRP even with no options.

Yes, I can do math. I was offered one with a $140,000 markup last week. Notice I said "up-to $150k."
