Based on all the interest in the GT3 RS I think Rennlisters will want to know more about the actual cars delivered. In the past (996 GT3) there were/are many questions on exterior colors and major options.

I will collect data on the North America 997 GT3 RS but your help would be appreciated.

Send me a private message with car's VIN and relevant data.

 

What kind of data are you looking for? VIN, color and options?

 

home addresses, alarm codes or wiring diagrams, key hook locations ...

jk

 

Very funny. I respect the privacy of fellow Rennlisters but if we don't share some reasonable information it will be guess work. Porsche AG is not going to give you a run down of what was built. (see my exterior color update on the 996 GT2/GT3 Forum).

 

Yes and if it is for sale, name the Porsche dealership.

 

Reminder.

Based on previous posts you folks will want more information than Porsche AG is going to provide on these 2007 997 GT3 RS North America spec cars. I'm not sure the PCNA sales figures will account for the GT3 RS model separately. Please assist and send me a private message with the VIN, primary options, name of dealership if unsold, and state where car is located.

I have data by VIN for seven RS as of 21 February.

1 - black
0 - green
2 - orange
2 - silver
2 - white

Thanks to silverstreak996, DarrellC, and Spark84 for recent help.


I will look into the REGISTRY comments more closely when I return from business travel. Having worked on PCA regional membership information in the past I can tell you its like 'pulling teeth' to get updates from the membership. Joining an RS Registry, would be voluntary of course, and many original owners of the RS probably don't want to be bothered. A Registry is not part of the agenda of a "latest and greatest car" buyer.

 

why not start a registry that we can add our names to as the cars become available?

 

With just 229 RS coming (supposed to) it will be very easy to keep a registry.

 

+1

 

My dealer just came back from the Cayenne roll-out and said he was told 260 and that was it. No '08, no exceptions. But...whatever.

 

I also had this idea, and registered the domain name gt3rsregistry.com. I was thinking that the interest in a registry would be minimal at first, as new owners wouldn't want to be bothered, or wouldn't want to reveal any info. Seems that the older cars get, the more interest there is in a registry.

So here I am, writting sunroof letters to PCNA and PAG, and planning a registry, and I didn't even get an allocation. I'll either get an '08, or a used one.

About 1/3 of the US RS buyers are on Rennlist.

 

Max Power;

How did you estimate 1/3 of the US RS buyers are on Rennlist? We get a lot of bull on here so its hard to say who really had valid orders.

 

There's a RS color survey thread, with something like 112 respondents.

Some of those folks I've never seen post and can probably be discarded.

I printed it out, and have checked off the names that I recognize as people
who have been talking about and anticipating taking delivery of an RS.

From what I have, I'd say that 70 of them are in the USA and another 10
are in Canada, Europe or the Middle East. (and 32 discarded votes)

So, 70 USA buyers here, out of 229 total. That's almost 1/3.

 

Apparently the Canadian allocation is 12!?

 

Some people may not talk about it much on the forum about their RS. I have not spoken much about my RS but I have a May build. I did participate in the color survey.
