Let's hope not. I called a sh*t load of dealers all over the US. Nobody had slots.

996 Cup, and all gt3's will continue to go up and up.
There aren't enough in the world.

The 2014 GT3 made its debut at the 2013 Geneva Auto Show. Personally, I believe the GT3RS will be introduced at the 2014 Geneva Auto Show, March 4 - March 16, 2014 as a 2015 Model with deliveries starting in the last quarter of 2014 and continuing through 2015. If you want to secure an early GT3RS, now would be a good time to give your favorite Porsche dealer a deposit to secure an early position.
And NO, I don't have any "secret information" from any "secret source" - and it is likely the dealer will not have any info either. But I do have many years of observing the timing of previous GT model introductions - and the past is usually the best predictor of the future. Spence

That makes sense to me. Despite all of the wishful speculation, I never expected a Frankfurt intro. Too soon after the GT3 and a potential spotlight rival for the 918.

Actually the GT3RS timing appears to confirm what Preuninger told Car uk published March 18, 2013

"A new Porsche 911 GT3 RS is imminent for 2014?"

"That’s right. Preuninger told CAR: ‘The RS is always three-quarters of a year behind the GT3, so we’ve already begun.’ A new 911 Turbo will be unveiled in the next few months, and the new 918 Spyder supercar is penciled to debut at the 2013 Frankfurt motor show in the autumn, so expect the RS to appear early in 2014."
