The 'heir-apparent' of the real 911s.
Based on your build-sheet I'm guessing you read their comments about the 'full bucket seats'.
Keep us posted.

Yes I have read all about the $6K dollar optional Racing-Bucket-Seats as well as a lot of the videos.
Since I'm over on this internet site and not over on Rennlist Porsche Internet Site I'll make the following comments.
Who in the world would want to put up with trying to get in and out with those seats ???
And if the above was not bad enough can you imagine driving distances for hours & hours with those and hundreds & hundreds of miles ???
If your of the "Rich & Famous" crowd having the multi-car garages and lots of Guy-Toys.
Then as many have commented having those Race-Seats would be just fine as the GT4 would just be one more Guy-Toy to drive every once in awhile or of course show it off to your other Super-Wealthy buddies.
And then we have those that have Lots & Lots & Lots of disposable income that will get the GT4 to actually just Track it.
So, those seats would make since for the above purpose ^^^

More than anything else, the $5900 Full Bucket seats seem to exist to facilitate such bruising. They will be instruments of torture for most people and best left to Instagram "fitness models" and other masochists. After just a couple hours in them, our toes started to go numb and our hips felt as if they'd been hammered with a meat tenderizer. A mild panic that we were never going to be comfortable again set in. If you see a GT4 parked on the side of the road and the owner walking, it's not necessarily because the car's out of gas. The driver might just need a break.

Nothing new as in my Porsche dealer acquiring an additional GT4 Allocation.

Hi Tom,


Well the Audi RS-3 I did love and truthfully if I hadn't stumbled on the Porsche GT4.
I could have easily kept and lived with the RS-3 for years and years.

The reason I have made this last purchase is simply because IMHO I'm running out of years for this sort of Sports Car.
I want to have what very well might end up being my Last Sports Car while I still can still enjoy it.
June I'll be 76 so using Common-Sense it seems to me it's now or never.
