So about 3000?

1000+ willing buyers on 911R
600+ willing buyers on 4.0 RS
500+ willing buyers on GT2RS 997
+ 50% of the GT3RS 991 crowd

Sounds about right to me. My guess is that it won't be as rare as people think and that speculators will feel the burn.

That said, I want one.

A lot of those are the same people being double and triple counted.

And a lot of those bought their cars at sticker, not sure how many would be willing to pay 300-350k, plus possible ADM.

I'm confused, there are multiple GT3/RS owners on the Pistionheads forums in the UK who want a GT2RS and they're being told no, because the dealer got one or no allocation at all while in the US you have the thread where the guy was told $250k ADM.

So how can supply equal demand?

Will more allocations come?

Because I thought there was a rush to build before the engine failed to meet emission standards.

Craigy-

Guys with 918 money...they have 1-3
918's. 1-3 x the vip cars= hoarding GT allocations also.

In this regard (gt2rs) there are enough people worldwide that can afford the 300-350 msrp.

Trust me- as a mclaren dealer i know a lot of them, but also...ferrari customers,
Lambo guys, ford GT applicants...add them up there are 10,000 guys who could buy it.

I will!
The GT3 is missing some "engine/transmission duct" which sounds very vague and questionable, but because of that, i cannot pick it up today.

True. The rich just get richer. While regular upper middle class business owners/professionals have to fight more for every dollar.
