We'll see. Big question is will they have 2017 RS cars, especially if the rumor of them building RSs through the end of Sept.

Do it right and get some hot looking model in a bikini display the car for us.
Just do not let her screw the car up - that is more important

Rather add the GT4 which I have on order. I have been working over the old lady and she has not bitten. It ain't a financial thing and I know that may not sound right but with her it is we do not have the room(which I can get a lift) but her point is really that I do not have a whole lot of time to spend with (1) car than what would I do with 2. I am down here in the Caribbean and tried to use a new watch to win her over - no work. She negotiates every thing. My wife is very successful and she said I can have it if I pay the taxes for the next 5 years. Let me tell you; I am no fool. Long story but I got screwed already once on that deal and once a sucker but never twice - I know - we have a sick relationship but it is our sickness

I heard Nigeria is the biggest market. I swooped in early and got mine for 10% off with a cash payment. Should be in next month.

Agreed! This kind of slow trickle has fueled all the speculation. We will probably never know, but some early production part problem (my guess is the roof) has limited production to this point. If it's been fixed, get ready for a flood of RS's because God knows the ROW is in the sheeter financially, so you can expect Porsche to send as many as they can our way.
I'll take the over on 700 more RS's coming our way before its all done, getting total sales closer to 1200 US, which is on the low side of my original estimate last year.

One last point to my earlier post. To hit 700 units this year- by say October- is 70 cars a month. Which by this summer will totally take the air out of the over MSRP bubble.

I would not hold your breath. I think a lot of the cars for sale are 918 guys. Once those disappear supply will get tighter. Not many RSs of previous years for sale and they made a bunch. I think these cars will be keepers for most that own them. I don't think it will hold at 150K but they won't be MSRP. If you want one and can grabbed it at 50 to 75k over I would grab it. The "cheap" ones will be heavily tracked or storied cars.
