Assuming what others are saying about higher US pricing strategy vs other current models is true, I wonder if that has anything to do with the VIP program that only the US has...

I was fully expecting a $300k price based on the 997GT2RS's $250k and car market now vs then.

It will still be a rare car because by the time you are done it's a $400k price tag...and for that you can get an F12 or some other insanity...while I love love love Porsches...no 911 is better than my F12

By the time I'm done it's at least $50k below that, and I'm known to check a lot of boxes.

Looks like they found another piece of interior that they can charge for to cover it in leather, the front middle console. Probably coming to all cars soon.

Any specifics about those lightweight Xenon headlight? (see tech specs)

I wonder how the price of the new 991 GT2RS will affect value of 997 GT2RS (which already is pretty high) either 997 GT2 (consistently rising) as the letter are for sure the last manual GT2...and they seem to be more analog 911s by all means
