I hope so for the sake of the mortals that want one because otherwise this will be 991R 2.0 with only US non-mortals getting this car.

I won't mind if they pump out lots of .2GT3RSs.

They don't want to produce more than demand. They never have. Not of GT cars. This isn't hard to understand. If those numbers are accurate, it's more than the last batch. It's not changing.

I really don't see how you're going to get an allocation. Unless you're throwing GT3 $ amount over MSRP.

Despite all evidence to the contrary...I think when they realize one is willing to pay for one of these they will make one for them...they are crazy expensive and have to have a huge profit margin...plus with cracking down on flippers many of the 911R ****** may pass on this.

I 100% agree with you. That's why I'm trying to import mine from Germany I know my chances of getting one from the US is 2nd to none especially since this is my first Porsche. You're able to get under the "substantially similar" clause for importation. Just have some components converted if needed along with emission testing which shouldn't be an issue and she's all yours afterwards.

I spoke with a GT2 rs owner at a car show yesterday. His dealer called him and offered him an allocation for the new 991 GT2 rs. I didn't ask specifics but he is not a VIP or 918 owner.

which will lead to around 2.000 - 2.500 units ww.

Which seems real for me. And will still be 500-1000 cars to less.

Who thinks the GT2RS will be faster than 675LT and 720S?

I think it will be.
Based on real and compareable lap times.

even if 100kg heavier.

McLaren will always have Porsche's number until they go turbo and continue to creep from rear-to-mid.

Not that I really care, but I doubt the GT2RS will top the 675LT in the straights and turns. Porsche GTX cars continue to sell well due to their much longer history, reliability, and sensory pleasures. They lost the specs game a long time ago. McLaren is just too good at it. Plus they have a proper carbon tub and don't have to deal with sharing the same chassis with the pedestrian model porky targas and cabs.

I'm not sure the 720S can be ordered with tires as good as those to come on the GT2RS, but on equal tires, I think the 720S will be tough to beat.

As mentioned before, the estimated worldwide production number is felt to be 1,000, with about 600 of those coming stateside. Roughly a 1/3 of VIP clients are no longer that due to flipping their cars before 6 months. This leaves 1-2 cars for larger dealerships. GM (large dealership) told me offers for over six figures are already on the table. It will be very difficult to get one (I am aware we all know). While the 720S and/or its LT variant will undoubtedly be faster in the straights, the handling, stability and RELIABILITY of Porsche in general, will make the GT2RS a very robust track competitor at a similar price (MSRP+ 100K or so) to some. McLaren requires pre- and post track inspections to maintain warranty and service there is multiples more expensive than Porsche and if one tracks 10+ times a year, a GT2RS at MSRP plus $XXX may be cheaper than the McLarens over 1-2 years of ownership. That said, I personally am unwilling to pay $100K over for a very fast 911. All of a sudden, the McLaren, tracked much less than desired, becomes the obvious choice, especially at or below MSRP!!
My rationalization to myself.
