So what is everyone's opinion on what the worth of a MY08 RS will be in 10, 20 years? If what the going rate is on the remainder of available cars holds ($50-70k) over MSRP, can this be recouped in 10 years?

If you keep it rust free, and don't repaint it,
and drive it 5000 miles a year,
in 10 years it'll be worth less than MSRP
in 20 years it will be worth MSRP
in 30 years, it'll be worth MSRP+
in 40 years it'll be worth MSRPx2
Cars aren't as good as stocks
but much more fun

I just went by Stevens Creek Porsche to look at the car - it is actually $228k asking price, $90k markup, lots of bling factory cosmetic options but no stripes and not even PCCB - kind of silly, really.
They also have a white 3 there, basic car, for $35k over, right around $150k

I love how the 08's were supposed to be for "special Porsche customers" that were not able to get allocations for 07 RS's, yet these ******* dealers have them sitting on their lots for $50-$90k over MSRP.

There are currently at least 10 2008 GT3 RS listed on dealer websites.
I've listed them on the rs registry, if anyone is looking to pay MSRP+50k or more. 8 are sitting at dealers in California, 1 is in Florida, and 1 in Texas.
If I could spec it myself, I might pay MSRP+$20k.
If someone else has speced it, I won't pay MSRP+$1
It's worth less than MSRP to me if it has options I don't want.
A local dealer has had my deposit for 18 months.
Meanwhile, 10 are now sitting in showrooms, with deviated stitching, leather cup holders, PCM, Chrono warts, painted lips and nipples...
