991.2 GT3RS - Won't Make the Same Mistake

To everyone in the thread. I have no issues buying a 991.1 GT3RS. The issue I have is paying 40k+ markup on a car. I'm sure a lot on here could bite that market adjustment with no problem, but for me I could, but I wouldn't feel good about it. There are still some dealers asking close to 100k over asking.
Remember, most allocations going out are to people that have bought other non-GT cars like Panameras, Turbos/S, Cayennes, Macans, etc. All of those cars have significant depreciation built in. I decided to just pass on eating that depreciation and fueling the "Stealers" machine and pay the premium second hand. It all comes out in the wash.
I promise it never feels "used" every time I get in it.

Why wouldn't there be a 991.2 RS?
If both 997.1 and 997.2 both got an RS'ss (.2 even got 2!!) and they have people lining up all day to pay twice over asking, why would they skip the .2 RS for the first time in over 10 years? Not gona happen. Porsche is not going to miss out on that easy $$$.

For a new RS? Please post links to those cars. My dealer has a non PTS that last time I checked was still asking over $100k over sticker. Dealers are currently asking $15k over for low mile used GT3s, much less RSs. I found a low mile used '16, low option build close to exactly what I'd want, dealer want's $15k over for it. Prices still haven't dropped much on .1s.

Everyone that works as hard as most of us do, needs to have a couple things they can blow money on without doing a cost / benefit analysis.

Those of us that are guessing are doing it based on some different facts and adding 1+1=3!
*991.2gt3 will be offered with MT option and 4.0l
991rs/R engine.
*991gt2rs will be 3.8l turbocharged monster 991.1rs. Mag roof/CF fenders etc,etc Released this fall? Hopefully production start Jan 2018.
One question is? When will the regular 992 be launched? Fall of 2018? 991.2 was launched fall 2015.
What can Porsche do to "upgrade" the 991.2rs with the 4.0l engine? They probably have a few tricks up their sleeves but IMO they have done pretty much everything they can with lightweight material in the 991.1rs platform. Personally can't see a 4.2l engine (as some have speculated). They have been thru enough trouble with 991.1gt3 E/F engines.
The only 991.2rs I see possible is the bare bones limited edition "cup edition" with the same 4.0l engine and completely stripped out.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but people were saying 997.1RS would be the only RS ever made and they were being sold way above msrp as a result. Obviously that wasn't true....

Same as 991.1gt3 being the last N/A, 991rs being the last N/A RS, 997.2rs being the last MT. We can go on for ever.

I'm searching nationwide and finding no difference at all between the pricing here and elsewhere. The car I'm kinda interested in is in the Midwest, but the price is nuts for a used car.

You are in error. None of the cars that show the MSRP are actually being offered at MSRP. It's just a default. The dealer just hasn't posted the true asking price.
