GT3 RS TOO EXPENSIVE IN THE USA
The Lowest RS i found online in the US is for 230k why is it so expensive? I mean in germany the the lowest is going for 168k euros which is like 186k usd and germany has higher car tax than the USA. Please Answer

You can only hope for those that bought on speculation is getting cold feet. Otherwise the price is what it is.

The US is a different market for quite a few segments, and they all have corrections... 991 GT3 coming first.

Agreed. I predict that the floor for a 991.1 GT3 will be around $100-110K (heavily-optioned cars will take a bigger hit than lightly-optioned cars), so I may just keep my 991.1 GT3 for a long time, well into the flattened depreciation curve. RS will eventually correct also, and same for the R. While there's a feeding frenzy right now, the reality is that none of these are 'pure' air-cooled cars, the likes of which will never be made again, and the Mr. Market will eventually realize that.

Often cars are offered without VAT for export. At list with a few options they get to the price the OP mentions.
