I hope now all those RSs sitting at Dealers with stupid mark-ups all go at MSRP. I hope all those Dealers who paid $20,000 plus, from other Dealers, who have been trying to rape the market lose money

I AM STARTING TO SOUND LIKE SOME ONE

If the 1.2 GT3 RS comes with a MT, it'll do more violence to the market for the 4.0 RS than it will the 1.1. GT3 RS.

Mine says pdk only too. She correct about the 4.0 manual for the 991.2 GT3, and that they were going to make a 991.2 GT3 RS. I hope all these speculators lose a lot of money and we can go back to enjoying cars the way they were meant to be enjoyed. I have never paid over msrp for a car and don't plan to ever.

I wonder if history repeats itself in 2007 The RS was unobtanium with $50K over MSRP required to get one.

FF to 2010RS post Lehman and the 997.2RS, even the 4.0 was @ MSRP for a couple of years and used 207RS @ 25% below MSRP.

The same guys that said the 991.2 GT3 wouldn't have a 4.0 or manual either.

Hood ducts for in-car air just like Cup and GT3R for the A/C delete option? And/or feeding the standard A/C system without needing a blower?

I think this 991.2.RS is not "so exciting" car to wait as was the 997.2.RS
At the moment it seems like just a update from the current model but 997.2.RS was very different car.

Didn't AP say that the GT3 is a combination DD and track car while the RS predominately a track car? Didn't he also say that for track performance PDK-S was the only way to go? In other words, I would not be so sure of MT in the RS.

I agree with you
It was unlikely from what AP said but then again after seeing the order book of the gt3
Maybe they changed their minds?

This site has its MT enthusiast and they are vociferous in demanding MT. Yet, they represent a small minority of buyers for the GT3 and GT3RS. I suspect less than 20% want MT and after the first orders the demand for MT will be Kaput.
I don't believe Porsche will be swayed by what they read here.

AP says the right things to sell the CURRENT car. He will change his tune as soon as the next greatest GT car is out.

People here quote him like he wrote the New Testament. When in truth, he's writing for the gossip columns. And we eat it up.
