There's 20 of them (RS) on ebay. I guess a lot of people are flipping them.

Outside C&C, seen 3-4 991 RS in the wild in SoCal and probably the same number of GT4's. Me thinks more RS's will/are being build than AP's 2500 number he threw out at Rennsport V...time will tell. Regardless, it is a great car.

If you want to see Porsche 991 RS out on the street on a daily basis your chances are probably highest in Belgravia, London, SW1.

I must not be in an affluent enough neighborhood. In any event, they are great cars as are all the GT Series.

P. S. In SW1 there is no place to use them unless they can beat the elevator to the second floor of Claridge's.

Took my RS there but all we spotted were Range Rovers. They must just give you one when you buy on the island. I think they are replacing the Sclass there.

I always preferred The Connaught, but yes you're right it's way to congested to really enjoy these cars there. Still fun to see 993 GT2's and McLaren F1's parked on the side of the road like they are old beaters.

I would have to agree with this. I see at least 2 or 3 GT3/RS & GT4's daily.. There is a GT4 owner in my office tower & I see a PTS (Miami or Riviera Blue) GT3RS most mornings when I'm walking up to my tower.

What does "common" exactly mean??

Oh yeah, drove by my local CarMax yesterday. 2 RS's and 1 GT4 there.

The OP looks like he's in Australia too. All of the ones there showed up at Cars and Coffee that day.

Events, sure there are plenty. But only one RS spotting in the wild in the past year in and around Boston.

Meanwhile, Bentley, Masser, Lambo, Ferrari's are spotted weekly - the first two almost daily.

I wouldn't be surprised if Toronto has the most RS's and GT4's per capita in North America.

I would bet $ on it,
Most aren't aware of the car hungry culture and the sheer amount of wealth located in the GTA..

I saw 65 gt cars in the mountains last month

I haven't seen a RS on the roads in my city and only seen 1 gt4 and 1 991gt3. Unless it's a cars and coffee event
