Make a beanie baby 100,000 units. People dont blink. Make one in only 500 units and watch the world unravel as people jockey to get thier hands on them.
Oldest trick in the book.
Were not even talking about something thats going to be made in 500 units. Were talking about something people THINK MIGHT be made in limited numbers and we already got all of us OCD guys calling all over the country for them willing to throw deposits all over. We all think were above this but were not.
Beanie Baby and GT3 RS are the same exact thing. Just different markets. Actually when i think about it there are beanie babies out there that are harder to get a hold of than this RS.
I'm on team "Everyone Gets and RS that wants one", not "i hope its limited but i get one". { that means nothing to me, i buy my cars to drive not as investments.

Specially as the GT4 adds to the supply of potential P track-cars alternatives

I'm on the same team, I want to get 2 for the reason that I'll buy one as a stripper, add full safety gear and run it exclusively on the track. The other I'll replace the GT3 with for street/weekend fun and keep luxuries like AC etc.

made the incredible Wing on my GT2 Factory Race Car that put the car on the Podium in most PCA and SCCA races. IMHO the Wing accounts for much of the improvement in Lap Times of the GT3RS over the GT3, saddled with a poor excuse for a Wing. I've been working with their design engineers <www.crawfordcomposites.com> for several months and they designed and built a new higher Wing with 10X the downforce and brake lights installed in the extended uprights for our 991 GT3s that will not destroy the downforce as our present 18 inch Brakelight on the active surface does. It is also FAR better on the road as it does not block the view out the rear window.

Michelin now lists the Pilot Alpin PA4 in 315/35R20 which is the same diameter as the 325/30R21 rumored for the rear many months ago. The size wasn't there 3-4 weeks ago when I ordered the GT3 winter set.

Looks like they're making sure it'll do just fine in our snowy Canadian climate--maybe they'll even send a few allocations our way!!! 
Thanks for the link.
And nice pick up on the tire sizes Nate.

Judging by history,the RS has always been a low production number. The market is limited and it has a short run of 1 to 2 years. But not limited,as in : " we will only make 999 of'em " no.
BTW,don't know if your Rennlist name has any correlation with Hans Mezger,but that is the correct spelling. I assume you couldn't find that name available...
