But that was also back when the market thought the GT3 RS was a super specialist limited production, not knowing that 4,000 were going to be made ...

In Spanish there is a funny saying - con paciencia y saliva se la metio el elephante a la ormiga-

Just in time

Jimmy, hormiga is spelled with an H. The reason is that elephant was very very silent. Lol.

Met a guy at the Merc dealership yesterday that just bought his UV RS in Atlanta for 300k!

Sorry to say that but its absolutely wrong. Have a look in the parts cataloque. The gen 1 3.8 and 4.0 engines are basically the same. Pistons, conrods, crankshaft and ecu are different. All other parts are shared. Even the camshafts are the same.

Some parts changed from 2013 to 2016 but these are used in both engines.

I would have no problem buying a G engine or 991rs from a reliability standpoint. Still have my doubts on the early E and F engines.

Not according to AP. Different heads, different oiling, different pumps/pressures, different rods, different crank, different cam profile, different valve springs, different rpm limits. Probably some tech sheet on it.

AP lied? Don't think so. Parts catalog not accurate. How many times have catalogs not been totally accurate when you call tech. If we go by what your saying PAG just punched out the 4.0 and called it a day and dropped it in the GT3R, RS and R.

Not likely for many reasons. Catalog is off.

Try it out. Order a cam from the catalogue without more follow up with tech for a 4.0 and run it in your 3.8 and let us know how that works out.

Catalogue is clearly off in details.

have to agree with you

i am tracking average selling prices for the GT3, RS and R in Germany and RS prices have not gone down, if at all they have moved up a little, supply is pretty stable with 77 cars available right now

R average prices have gone down by 10-20%, latest listings are around 430K Euro, so still double MSRP, 11 for sale right now

first GT3.2 is listed as 27K Euro over MSRP

I literally just sold my silver RS for almost 60 over. Keeping my Mexico Blue. They are all over the place.

The price the cars are listed on mobile.de for and the actual trading values are two totally different stories. I am trying to sell mine below listed price and people somehow are not killing each other to get it...

tonymission

Great deal, great seller... still 28k over sticker. This thing will sell almost immediately too.

One thing I've learned being on this board for over 8 years....its an aberration. Its not reflective of the real life market on GT cars. What people say they can get an RS in here for is usually way way off or it is the one in a million lucky shot.

As you know, Europe / US / ROW all different markets.
