Its really not overkill by today's standards, especially considering a 3,200+ lb curb weight.

Curious....why do you think "prices will stiffen up again"?

The 2RS I only did three total laps, first time driving one on a track and it went 1.45. Two more laps and I would have been in the 1.44's. I also lapped a 600LT and 720S. Those videos are on my YouTube if you want to see them.

Records are meant to be broken. Head down with the ZR1 and try I have one of those right now too. Haven't had it out at the track though.

Oh and the same thing is happening with the GT3RS market too and prices should be MSRP or lower and I own one but couldn't give a rats *** since I'm enjoying driving it.
you'd have to do the usctrojan special move and throw another Montana plate on it to make it happen

I bought a GT2RS ( from a flipper of course) and payed well over sticker ($60K) 5 months ago. I've enjoyed the car everyday since buying it. It was exactly as I would have optioned it and only 2 weeks old. The nice thing is I went ahead and just did it because I wanted too. No mental gyrations, indecision, and NO WAITING. I didn't have to follow ships crossing the Atlantic or worry about paint correction or a million other things. I traded a 19 GT3RS and a '17 TTS for it plus $20K. My bottom line is you can stress out about the price or "JUST BUY ONE" and start enjoying it. Would'a, could'a and should'a always miss out. In this price range what's a few thousand dollars one way or another. They are toys.

Why pay sales tax when I won't keep the car long? I pay enough in taxes and the car would pretty much only see track duty as I don't do cars & coffee.

Nice, congrats...what color is the GT2RS? Like I said, no shame in paying for what you want when you want it....I did it for the .1RS.

I’ll post this again here and from here on out on every new “value” discussion bashing the values of our cars.

It is truly a shame that this “Porsche” enthusiast forum is the only place that takes cars that we all love and many own and bashes the values of such fine automobiles. It’s like you all want the brand to be inexpensive enough for everyone to own. It’s not a Honda, it’s a PORSCHE! The R’s deserve to bring big money, it’s a rare collectible. I took a drive in a buddy of mines new Honda Civic Type R. It was numbered xxxxx of some 34xxx. Yes 34k type R’s are being built and they will hold their value incredibly well. So any Porsche is pretty rare, especially the GT and RS and R’s. I wish rennlist would ban all value discussions and bring this back to an informative forum without so much opinions from those who do not own/can’t afford these cars. Not all cars are for everyone. It’s OK. Frustrating, yes, but so is life. Get over it and go buy a Civic, it’s a pretty Impressive car.
Rennlist is really close to losing me, and many of my colleagues as members if this continues. Let’s keep it to tech and meet ups and positive conversation. We share a passion, let’s enjoy it on this forum as well.

$60k is about 1 year's worth of median US income, and unless you are exceptionally creative, from after-tax funds. I donno, I would have waited a bit, followed the ship, and done the rest of the song and dance, but who am I to judge? Its all good. Congrats and Enjoy!

It's the launch color-silver with black/red interior with WP and mag wheels. Even when I don't drive it ,I love looking at it in my garage. It brings a smile to my face on my way to work and thats worth a lot.
