With the crazy numbers "some" are just spouting out I would expect alot more to be sitting on U.S. dealer lots since U.S. is by far the largest market. Relatively few for sale here.
sorry Waxer, yet again, not true. As of today there are 74 991 GT3 RS for sale in Germany alone, about 10 under sticker and quite a lot around sticker

You also are always at the high end of the speculation in terms of current and future 991.1 RS value.

So I, and others, will continue to multiply your numbers by 50%.

no point arguing with Waxer, he has been desparately trying to talk down numbers of cars on sale or on production as well as talk up numbers of resale values. if i wouldnt know differently i would say someone is trying to sell his RS very soon!

and yes there will be no official RS numbers by porsche EVER, they dont disclose those numbers but they do talk to analyst in the financial industry and if you happen to work there you might get lucky

There is certainly far from a flood of GT3RS's on the market here and prices seem to be holding strong if not even inching up now that production is over.

Yeah, please post up these production numbers. As they say put up or .....
there will be no official RS production numbers, yet inofficial numbers within porsche and in the analyst community covering the company of course numbers exist

but if you are happier with 3500-4000 then thats fine too, it doesnt really matter in the great scheme of things

Seranad, posting incorrect information doesn't help anyone. Didn't you say 9000 cars told to you by your friend at the factory? Now you say 5000 to 8000 but you can't say exactly. I called the psychic hotline and they agree.

From the vins I have there are 1310 RS's built for the US. It sounds low to me but no one has shown me a vin outside the range I'm tracking. (187064-187310, 192061-193339)

hahahahah, no. 9000 was someone else on this board ( i just checked TRYPTOMINE, he started the RS production number thread)

i said 8000 before and i revise that sligthly down, thats all

and i apologize for giving you the 8000 estimate from a friend at the beginning of December. now at year end it was less than that

i really dont doubt your vins tracking, kudos to you for doing that. and to be honest i am not sure how to reconsile

278 --> 192061-192339

If it will be 4.0l mt, will it definitely be possible to retrofit a lwfw?

I would think it will be optional on the order sheet. Not like Porsche to pass a chance to offer something that costs less to make for $thousands more...

As time goes on it seems less likely there will be a .2 GT3RS.

That means the GT3 doesn't have to leave room for a bigger brother, and 4.0L it will be.

To get to 500HP from a 3.8L, it will need to do over 130HP per litre, there is currently exactly 2 engines that tops that, both are V8 with smaller pistons.

Some here keep thinking too much into the 'protecting' the R customers, meaning they can't quite possibly use 4.0L manual in the GT3 like in the R.

Rubbish. No R owner will even cared if the GT3 will basically have the same drive train. Well perhaps the few flippers might, but the majority are collectors and the limitation badge will be enough.

Hell, a McLaren P1 is basically a souped up 12C, yet none of the P1 buyers mind.
