Original owner attrition will begin when some of the less committed owners start chewing up tire sets after 4K highway miles..... just my unsolicited opinion as usu. 
Let's look at their prices less than a year from now, I'm sure you'll get very low mileage cars quite a bit below MSRP.
OK, you (who ever wants to have the "latest and the greatest" & right now) weren't among then first to get it (big deal) but who cares, you have GT3 RS and just about enough money (left over from ~$200,000) to get an US legal real 993 RS to share your garage and track time with your GT3 RS.
$200,000 for a brand new 997 GT3 RS or $230,000 for a ~5000 miles GT3 RS AND 1996 993 RS?
Who ever does the latter IMO gets a waaaaay better deal.

The sticker of the white RS is around 150K so 200K plus tax and fees. Not as steep as the RUF mentioned in another thread. I will post he spec. when the e mail comes from the dealership.

So simple you are. Walked out like a KY deer. After the bull**** your dealership is spitting you can keep it. I have one, the way I want. Flash in a pan.

In Southern California, someone *will* pay that whether or not it is an investment, I have no doubt.
