Dealer offering me an RS

If you don't want it, I'll take that allocation if your sales guy is feeling generous. I realllly love my 6spd. But I've got the RS itch and have been considering trading up. If I could get an RS allocation at MSRP, I'd do it.
I love the manual transmission. I really do. But something about the RS is calling my name. Tiny bit more power (no difference I suppose). But a lot more aero and mechanical grip. Plus I like the loudness of all the vents and larger wing.
It's a tough decision. Just gotta decide if you want the top dog NA car or you really want the manual transmission.

It's got plenty of grip for the street. Just doesn't feel as planted, at least not compared to the .1 RS I drove. It's a tough call either way. Both are fantastic cars. The RS is an RS... The GT3 has the manual. Decisions decisions.

Who says? The last gen 991.1. GT3RS was made in larger numbers than the GT3. How will this round be any different?
Taken from a 2016 article regarding worldwide demand:
"The production line would be discontinued last February, after building the planned 2000 units. The demand for the GT3 RS turned out to be so great that the production continued. The final number of 911 GT3 RSs that have been produced would be 7000 , although Porsche does not make any statements about it."
Note that US Market roughly accounts for 40-50% of the demand.

Hmmm...I may be incorrect. I recall something like 8000-9000 units globally but then came across the U.S. figures here and yes, less than 2000:

And I'm not talking about on the street.
