Absent a complete market collapse the sole near term (defined as next 12mos) driver of RS prices will be 2017 production, if any.

All GT3's are sitting and not selling (7.1, 7.2, 991)...prices will start to come down if buyers aren't paying. 100 - 150k over for an RS is crazy and cars will not move at that level with the stock market down turn...let's be patient and get an RS later this year or early next.

Y'all talk about fair market values.

Meanwhile, I'll take delivery of this "*** end" . At MSRP. :-)

Another tulip mania bubble soon to burst...

"In the Netherlands, there once was tulip mania," says Axel Merk, chief investment officer at Merk Investments. "This is China's variant."

No way is a mass produced car like the 991 RS worth the prices being asked. This too shall pass. It just happens to be the gotta-have-it car of the moment. Maybe its the Porsche variant.

It is far different from a 1973 RS of which only a handful were made and those took three decades to appreciate beyond purchase price.

RSRracer im so glad u got a pts at sticker and throwing it in our faces. now go die because I don't give a **** about you and your slow at the track also if your trying to brag fix your picture so our next don't hurt.

Chris would not be one that is "slow at the track..."

misterwaterfall

It's already softening for both the 97 and 91. Obviously little to due with the market to this point, but another 8-10% wouldn't help an already declining market.

RSRRacer

Calm down there little man!

First, I don't even know who the hell you are? How to you presume to know me?

Second, if your half a man come down to Sebring in a few weeks and we can see who is slow. Or road Atlanta. Or the glen. I'm not hard to find. My real name is Chris Brown. Car 871. Big red neck dude, about 6 feet 230.

Third, we can shake hands afterwards or if you insist on being a punk I can deal with that too.

Chris is good people, I bought my GT3 and he was a pleasure to deal with. Very smooth and easy transaction. He's not the type to brag or throw things in peoples faces. Yeah, it sucks that we can't have an RS at MSRP but that doesn't mean we have to take it out on the folks who were lucky enough to get one at MSRP.

I think GT2Turbo was trying to compliment you while not being able to type straight due to being green of envy.

But I could be totally wrong

So you're not the black girl beater than?

As someone who straddles the US and China (resident of both for 13 years now) and who consumes luxury products (I haven't chimed in on the new watch thread) I'm worried. The next shoe to drop in China will be a total real estate melt down. The government abandoned their ill conceived circuit breakers last night as the market approached July levels on the SSI. HKSE in free fall. I'm a conservative person and my worry may be for not but my immediate reaction is to stop (most ) luxury consumption which includes suspending my active search for a 997RS and a faint consideration of a 991RS. I have to think some people are thinking like me. I have almost no exposure to the equities markets but have seen this movie before. Very good chance stuff gets much cheaper very soon. I can tell you luxury watches including PP and Rolex getting 10-20% off in Hong Kong already. Always a canary in the coal mine for me as Normal discounts are max 5% on PP and 15% on Rolex for high dollar slow moving models (platinum, heavy stones). Just my two cents.

Back on track....you want another data point that RSs don't trade over $100k over? Here you go...

From a knowledgeable, willing, and unpressed seller too.

usctrojanGT3

Yup, markets can be manipulated by governments and central banks for only so long before reality sets. I'm not hoping for any kind of meltdown, but I do think a slowdown is coming. I'm seeing it in Orange County real estate as well.

RSRRacer

Not unless GT2Turbo is a girl. Then I would become one just to handle that situation.
