They're supposed to go down with the new toy now out(991GT3)!
Why don't you people move to the nice PDK and let me have the RS Mezger for...let's say around 100K,shall we?!
Anyway...heard a lot of reasons,but I still can't believe it! In the middle of the winter too!!! What's going to happen in the spring?! 250K maybe?!

When do you people predict they'll start going down?

Some guys here charge upwards of 5% for services like this, but for you, and being Christmas and all, this is free:

The truth is I should've gotten one when they were 135K negotiable at the dealer with CPO. I got the GTS instead and now I regret it...

You can find RS porsches from 120-150k. They are out there.
RS porsches asking 150k+ have low miles and should be garage queens for that kind of money.

Prices should not vary much for 2014.

The whole rear wheel steer and PDK have puristest freaked out thereby keeping the 997.2RS prices stable.

I'll be selling my CPO white 997.2 GT3 for about half that price next week.

I was able to pick up a non garage queen PTS 2011 RS from a fellow RL member thanks to Mooty for a great price and am loving the car. There are good cars out there for a good price, especially from private sellers.

Seems to me that all P cars went up in price quite a bit in the last 8 months-

Yes,I should mention that I've made the mistake of thinking I could get a garage queen with low miles,front lift(to make it practical) and get a good price. It seems that it's not happening right now...

It's hard to sell manual RS .... There's not a good replacement yet.


Quick Reply: Please please enlighten me!!! Why are the 2 RS prices at almost 200K?!
