I’m sorry but the same was true in 2023 and 2022 in GT3RS and GT3s when the same identical car went up in price 5 figures. Same was true for Turbo S and other models.

The only sane explanation to this is only MY2025 allocations are those moved from 2024. Instead offering price protection for each, Porsche kept the price unchanged.

Agree. Also explains why the configurator's color palate has so few options recently.... because it doesn't really matter.

I think you’re right. They’ve had problems with the carbon fiber parts etc. They’re going to build what they allocated already and move on to all things .2.

Cars in PPF and getting exhaust installed so these are all I have now. Lighting is terrible in these photos and in the light the indigo wheels stand out significantly better on the 3RS than the 4RS. Peep them sexy 18ways!

Yeah I was an odd one.... I was deemed "culturally insensitive" for commenting on pastries.

Lol, funny you mention vacation. I took a casual pause from work to let my claims load come down a bit to a more manageable level(over 120 at the time) so I spent the first 2 weeks of May wrenching and rebuilding the motor of one of my diesels all while my TRX Motor is being built by my Viper builder to a nasty 7.0l Cammed motor with goals of 1400crank HP with the wick turned up. Then this damn "Derecho" hit Houston and 4 hail storms smashed Texas. So reluctantly *insert sarcastic sigh* had to put my cape back on and do what I do best and fight for dozens of new customers to not get scammed out of legitimate coverages by their insurance companies. Oh and my buddy and I cut this 95ft tall pine tree of this house the storm blew down since 6 different tree companies said hell no that too dangerous since the roof was collapsed underneath it. 10ht of work, got to play with heavy equipment, chain saws, boom lifts, and still bill Statefarm $18k for it.... super fun time! So yeah, vacations been 🔥.

PTS cars look so much better w/out the exposed carbon hood/roof.
^^ case in point (too much going on)

I suppose it's interesting Porsche introduces 992.2 for 2025 911 line up (or specifically GTS) but GT3RS remains 992.1 ?? Not familiar with previous history but is this normal to change generations for certain 911 models only? And perhaps we'll see a 992.2 GT3RS in later years?

Ultimately debating whether to continue waiting for an allocation from my dealer thats supposedly coming later this year or trade in my 992.1 GT3 for a existing 3RS now..

Funny you say that, most feel opposite. Most PTS colors on the 3RS don't suit the lines of the car and all painted hood and roof looks relatively meh and downplay the signature character features of the car. Black on these and the ST for example complete castrate the cars presence. If that's desirable goal, awesome!

I think it suits you perfectly. Enjoy.
