Top color lizard green 408 or 27% of productions
Highest MSRP $267920
Lowest production numbers no Weissach, no Pccb, 76 cars

As one sorts through the '19 GTSRS ONE CAN FIND some low production cars if that's what you are looking for. 992.2 production will be interesting
Ok yet theres not really an accurate cross comparison.

The current 3RS with a medium spec is 320k, add PTS your 340-350k. Thats nearly 100k more prior to adm. There's ABSOLUTELY NO NEED for Porsche to make as many units to justify ROI when margins are higher. Sure inflation has an impact, but we're already 4yrs in on the 992 gen and PAG is just playing the #s game at this point as annual profits have continued to climb over the past few years.

I don't get how people don't understand basic business models. Lol

Supply and demand doesn't equate to market saturation. To maintain the allure of exclusivity you make less, spend less, make more by charging more. It's that simple.

I guess Lambo didn't get the 'maintain exclusivity' message from the VWAG board based on how many STO's they produced (and are still producing). Porsche will build as many 3RS's (and Spyder RS's) as their capacity allows.

If they can get their suppliers to deliver timely parts, like CF parts.

STO is sold out.

There are more enough orders to fill the order books until Q4 2024, which is the end of production for the STO.

2025 will see a replacement for the Huracan.

Yea STO is sold out but look how many super low mileage used ones are on the market. Can find plenty under MSRP with under 1k miles. The STO is actually a great car minus wild Lambo looks. But values plummeted once people realized how many Lambo was going to produce (and continue to produce). They are also facing CF supply issues which delayed a bunch of initial production and certain customer specs.

Bingo.... the STO is a car that created new appeal to the Huracan just as the new 3RS triggered new interest in the 3RS. Both due to aggressive style and aero. The specs on alot of used STOs are goofy as hell and the graphics pack looks Elementary. They took a massive it on the markets and as stated, many seek their own spec instead.

They are gonna build more 3rs then anyone thinks they will. This happens for every 3rs. This one is no different.

You must be kidding with that statement....that is EXACTLY why they'll pump out as many GT3RSs as they can. They could give a rats azz what the market value of your GT3RS or any other one is, they are about maximizing profits and revenues. They aren't stupid, they know demand is there so they'll keep building to their capacity.

Just like with the Touring and GT4RS, huh? Yeah ok....you keep thinking that. Your GT3RS is not a special limited car. And guess what? They'll build more 992.2 GT3RSs than 992.1 GT3RSs. You want a low production GT3RS? Go buy yourself a 997 GT3RS, that car is limited and in time will be worth more than GT3RSs just like they have surpassed 992.1 GT3RS price already.

My guess is that he'll say carbon fiber yet all the GT3s and GT4RSs have a ton of carbon car parts. There's no serious material shortages anymore, that ship has sailed. Porsche will sell almost 5,000 992.1 GT3/Tourings in the US.

my guess is they'll have a shortage of green paper from the customers once too many get bent over the barrel from 24-48 months of buying 992 GT cars

I saw even Chris Harris is mocking the gt3rs secondary market on his instagram
