According to one of the reps at Geneva, the 991.1 GT3 RS will be the last naturally aspirated GT3 variant. But who knows if he knows what he's talking about...

TRAKCAR

991.2 GT3 who knows? Just facelift? Turbo? Still never will be an RS.
Than 991.2RS, it certainly wont be cheaper..

You can always trade in the 991.1RS.

I will be skipping the RS ( thought i think its an amazing car) and keeping my GT3 for now.

waiting to see the 991.2 GT3/RS and will get one of those. especially if the news is they are the last NA engines.

cheers

i can only afford so much.
ur gryphon, CJ, jadis.... makes RS look like garbage...
love the glow of tubes on JA30 (can't believe they still make them afte what 20 years?)...
the tactile feel of gryphon's *****.
say, have you played with cello suite? omg, the *****..... turn them... the click click click sound... nirvana. way better than nipples.....


sheesh, i have issues dont i.

I have struggled with all of above thoughts many times over. To me it really becomes a timing issue. I deliberately refrain from rapidly flipping cars for small marginal gains in performance (as tempting as that may be).
Having said that if I had ordered my 458 six months later than I did it would have been a speciale instead of my Italia which was ordered before release of the track car. Also had I not ordered and received my gt3 already I would go for the RS. But I can not get my self to upgrade in either case. It's a waste of money for me. Tempting to upgrade but irrational.

I will next look at the 488 track version and the .2 gt3s. The RS is the best 911 right now, until the next one comes out.

- whatever the delta is today it'll be higher next time
- buying now keeps you in the rotation with your dealer
- RS is cheap rent with big up front deposit but you tend to get it back
- too many unknowns with gen2 to sit on sidelines

The day i picked up my 991 GT3 I put a deposit down on a 991.2 GT3... Just in case. If it's NA I'll get it. If it's turbo I keep this one. RS is just a bit out of my price range.

Yup, buy 'em all, keep the ones you like. The fun stops sooner than you think.

Very interesting thread.

I'm hoping that a lot of current 991 GT3 owners DO NOT skip wanting a RS, and sell me their GT3.

And I'm saying this even being #2 on my dealers list for a GT3 RS. (not an allocation, since she is not sure she will get 2). I'm struggling with the price......but who knows?

Red GTS

Debating selling my 15 GT3 and getting the RS
maybe if I can get 15 over I can order one with options

mdrums

9 new Porsches since 2001 and still can't get offered a GT3 or GT3RS...hummm...well got offered 1 on the showroom floor at $35k over MSRP...Ha...Geesh!

I am trying not to get into the high end tube audio. I am sticking with my collection of vintage fender/marshall tube amps.

Do you have some information about this or is this speculation based on history?
