Re: GT3 RS 4.0 Official announcement and video
Now that I am home from work and actually have time to digest this stuff, I am just mesmerized with this car. I had convinced myself that this "rumor" was not something that I would desire, I have my GT3, and fits me and my needs perfectly, I do not need an RS38 and certainly not a RS40. I also thought Porsche would not spend the money for the R&D to really push the engine to 500 hp, it is just too much for a street car, they would reserve that level of power to the next version, 911 or what ever it is.
Well, I am really surprised by this. Normally aspirated, reliable, engine with GT2 level power! How sweet would this be? I also like the comparatively understated look, just superb. I WANT ONE!!!

Re: GT3 RS 4.0 Official announcement and video
Majority of engine R&D was already spent in developing the GT3 RSR race car. Virtually everything else with exception of airbox is straight off the GT2 RS. Rather than additional R&D spend, this is a way to amortize R&D already spent. Very logical.
