This GT Silver .1 RS with 900 miles is on BaT. PCCB, FAL, and leather with deviated red stitching. $210k original MSRP. Was listed at Road Scholars not too long ago for $190k with the same mileage before it disappeared from their site. Had a Martini livery which has since been removed.
You guys hanging onto 991 values or desperately buying up 991s will soon learn that "looks" dont effect values as much as experience. 991.2 >> 991.1, but both will be neutralized as nothing special against the 992, despite the blowback on looks. If you're worried about "value" you missed the boat and it's in the 997 generation.
PTS Signal Green .1 RS with 3300 miles. PCCB, no FAL, some CXX, LED’s, and leather with deviated acid green stitching. $218k original MSRP. Asking price is $210k. Definitely .2 RS money and IMO probably won’t sell for that especially without FAL. But the market nowadays is extremely weird so anything could happen.

Do not get me wrong. I think the Touring is a great option for those who do not want the attention a Wing brings. I think the take on the 992 GT3 will be more for the Touring.
I happen to prefer the Winged version, myself, but think the RS is way too racer-like and think the Wing looks stupid.
Different strokes for different folks
Feel the same. If the winged and touring GT3 were the same price, I think I'd still lean 70/30 wing.
Also agree regarding 90% of RS cars. They look a little too ridiculous to me driving on public streets with the graphics, aero, and mismatched body parts. That reasoning led me to buy a regular 997.2 GT3 back in the day instead of a RS. After seeing 997 RS values, maybe I should re-evaluate my stance hah.

I'm such a sucker for green but good luck with that price. There was a RS Green one for sale in Oregon a few months ago listed at 180. I offered 170 and they said no, then called me a month later asking if my offer still stands. I don't see this car going for anywhere close to their asking.

As an enthusiast it would be fun to see more of the RS driving around, in any generation. I know they're out there but certainly not common, at least that has been my experience while living in Seattle, Houston, Phoenix, Denver and Chicago. I know there are many members on here who are from or have lived in these cities and may object about seeing these around, just sharing my experience. Obviously not including track events and car meets. I also agree, the RS is a ridiculous car, but that's part of what makes them fun. Cheers!

It warms my ridiculous RS loving heart when I see them out and about. Different strokes for different folks.👍🏻

It is great to see them around but even in LA they arent common as DDs. They are on the track, carving canyons, on Rodeo drive (posing) or at cars and coffee. Very few DD's. So yes even though the GT3 or Touring as a sleeper - there are very few people that use them as DD's. Of the several hundred Touring owners - how many people - wake up each day and drive them 25 miles down the freeway to the office, go grocery shopping, go to the dentists etc., in them? I'd say less than 50. They would be great road trip cars (LA to Sb then Sonoma, Napa via Pebble Beach, Big Sur etc and back in a Touring mmm). So again - hats off to you if you love the Touring as a DD - and i really mean that. But realize that there arent many of you. How may Tourings are up to 20K miles or more. The one's for sale seem to have 3-5K? I know a few more people that drive a GT3 as a DD - so maybe now we are up to 500 people. RS back down to ??. Thats why Porsche bifurcated the series into regular DDs (Carreras and Turbos) and GT3's that are more fun and better suited for other things. I prefer my TT as a DD (over the Perf and a GT3 / RS). That's why when / if i buy a GT3, its going to have a wing as that's how I will use it. Luckily Porsche now makes 47 variants of 911's
