In the end this is all marketing. in the end anyone and everyone who can afford a GT3 RS and wants one will get one. Just like the 997.1 and .2 . 4.0 was another story. Like i have said before, unless the dashboards say ### of 500 or whatever, Porsche will satisfy the demand. If the car is announced as a limited run of 500 or whatever then all bets are off, but if its just announced like other generations then don't worry. It'll just take time, money, and your connections, which will determine when youll get yours. If i can quote Lebron James, quoting Alex Rodriguez (2 of the biggest ******** out there)................. "RELAX!!!!" lol

I have been lucky to look at a picture of final production mockup of GT3 RS and the rear bumper you see will not change...this is the final production bumper minus the GT3 RS badging. Small slit vents exist on sides of rear bumpers just in front of rear reflectors.

Of course that's what the dealers say.
By halfway through 2017 anyone who needs one will have one. There will also be plenty on autotrader, DuPont, cars, and eBay by then.
If you need one you'll get it.
This is business as usual.
Once again if they are numbered pieces then forget all I have said.

I can't be as certain as AC SATCO about the RS,but considering the craziness PAG trolls created on this board with the GT3 and then plenty allocation started appearing and still do,that even a poor soul that's been in a coma for the last 10 months and just woke up could've gotten one,I wouldn't be surprised if same thing will happen with the RS.

When has a dealer ever said anything other than "oh this car is really hot, there won't be enough to go around?"
A few months ago a dealer told me "the 991 GT3 is so rare you won't ever see one on the road blah blah."
The very next day I rode in a friend's 991 GT3, and since then I've seen 10+ 991 GT3 in Atlanta as compared to precisely zero 997 GT3 of any variant (other than my own) during the same period.

This is taken in north part of Sweden, obviously winter testing the car in freezing temp with winter tires! A lot of us northerners run higher sidewall winter tires for comfort and softer rubber. Porsche has to recommend a winter tire for this car even if no one ever will drive it in the winter!

I think the 991 RS will be more street able than a 7 GT3 - technology is there so it will broaden the appeal. I was surprised how short some of the lists were when I was looking for a second slot 9 months ago. Not sure what it is like today, but 100% agree that if people want them they will get them.
My dealer ordered 50% of their GT3s for inventory due to the final allocation craziness. There will be another late release and inpatient people buy something else.
