They recently raised the price... it was listed for $138k a few weeks ago...

Good luck finding the one

That all makes sense.... I was wondering why it had been available for so long in the current market...

Thx Waxer!

Yes the word EVER is pretty strong. There are many sales we never even hear about. But Doug killed it with his auction. Winning!

I believe the time to buy now. With the current administration’s “brainstorm” of turning up the speed on the money printing press to “full speed” we are headed for serious $ devaluation and inflation. Collectibles and precious metals etc will soar.

Thats why im 100 percent on equities now. Also, i mean who cares overpaying a little for gt3 rs... you will come out better than buying 992 turbo s brand new.

In this market, I advise beating the bushes on RL and seeing who you can convince to sell in an off-market deal. It will take time on your part, but it wouldn't be too hard to review threads in this sub-forum and ping RS owners. You can quickly identify many RS owners on RL in this thread (https://rennlist.com/forums/997-gt2-...re-thread.html). You may be able to find someone willing to sell without having to go through the hassle of listing an ad and dealing with tire kickers. Also, make a WTB post here too.

By nature, it will be difficult to find a "high mileage" RS because most are garage queens and not driven. Also take into consideration the low production numbers and that means beggars can't be choosers in this market if you are looking to get behind the wheel of an RS sooner rather than later. If you are willing to compromise a little, open your net to consider the base GT3 if driving experience and putting on miles is your priority rather than re-sale. IMO, you get 98% of the driving experience for a lot less money. Good luck with your search.

Getting the paint to sample black would not be easy, I don't think. The build sheets only list whether it's paint to sample or a normal color. So you don't know what color of paint to sample it is.

I believe of all the PTS colors for the .2 RS, black is the most common. I thought I read somewhere they manufactured between 5-10 black .2 RS’s for the US. Seems like half of the PTS .2 RS’s I have seen for sale over the years have been black.
