I think paying 50K over is a bit much let alone 100K. Then again I absolutely refused to pay over MSRP for a GT3 for several months and we all know how that wound up (20K over).

I don,t believe they are currently available due to the demand being so high for them on the GT2 RS ...

Keep in mind that follows 991.1 RS production numbers. Also keep in mind that is global production quote not US production. 991.1 RS production wasn't 6000+ cars in US. Actual US deliveries are quoted under 2,000 units.

I don't believe it's the reason. I had the LWB on my car and there was no problem with RWS.
The "power" of LWB and regular battery is the same.
