The "no over-rev" fear will keep future buyers not so concerned about track miles either. Can't say the RS's numbers are hitting the tracks in the same fashion....likely due to price point. Your love of the manual gearbox doesn't always translate to other interested enthusiasts. There will always be the desire for a Porsche GT car IMO. Those that have multiple cars often have several manuals in their collection. One final thought: Even though it seems that Porsche stretched the limits of the redline for a flat 6 street car suppose to make it past 100,000 miles (fingers crossed this engine doesn't continue to explode)........the fact is, it may be the last 9,000 rpm redline one they make. Then, it has something that no other GT car has.....and that will keep interest in the future. But all of that is just my opinion......which happens to be on the other end of the spectrum of yours.

I doubt any of them will Tank in value no matter what comes out. However, Porsche loves to play this bs out.

Oh, and the exploding engines! Which come as a no-charge option.

You folks certainly don't read all the responses. Speaking seriously,I don't think the prices will " tank ". As others have stated,there might be an adjustment...which means they won't be selling for MSRP used anymore. How much lower...nobody knows... But I believe the same will happen with the GT4s once the new ones will be announced and so on...

As for desirability goes,I have no doubt the manuals will be in minority,but I also believe they will be very sought after,especially in the 2nd hand market. That is the case with any future and present sports car that comes with a manual transmission period! No question about it! It's a dying technology,but definitely most enjoyable. Automatics have been and will continue to exist and improve. How many Ferraris with the F1 tranny are being sought after? PDK will follow the same road once the better PDK comes out...
