Deep in the darkness of Stuttgart, there is rumored to be a press release stating confirmation of the 2008 GT3 RS.

Almost every single Porsche forum is now saying this. I think we'll all feel better once it's official, but there's clearly a ton of momentum from those who have all heard this. I for one, am anxiously excited at the thought of finally getting on 08 at MSRP since I've been on the waitlist for almost 2 years now.

Knowing Porsche's desire to make money they will build as many as they can sell so all those paying nearly 200k for one will get burned bad.

You can say that again!!

Hopefully those lucky 170 get their GT3RS's for MSRP ....Yeah right!

The price is set by supply and demand. Unfortunately, precedence was set when that first person spent 200+K for his or her GT3RS and now the price is set. Obviously I hope that those who have spent 50-75K over are getting their money's worth, and don't get ripped in the long run especially with another 170 cars coming out. I do not think I am alone when the thought of a slime-ball dealer pocketing someone's hard earned 50-75 grand, just makes me want to heave.

So what if you can afford it. Many on these pages can and many would love to have a GT3RS in their garage, me included. Just remember that dealer just walked away with YOUR money, laughing all the way to his or her bank!

The GT3RS is a GREAT car...the dealer who just stole 50-75K of your money is scum and a thief.

Pretty harsh words I know but it annoys me to no end that some have the audacity to do this and others just put up with it. Demand better!

Just my 0.02.

My sources tell me they are already reserved for Porsches most loyal and consistent purchasing customers. So it is not like you can go into the dealership and order one. The answer will be No.. from my end anyway..
