why ain't there a thread on

this? >> Porsche to Restart 911 GT2 RS Production After Cargo Ship Sinks With Cars On Board - The Drive


ive got a couple things on the 4 lost cars in this sinking.


will the replacement cars be worth more money at some point down the line due to the loss at sea? kinda a unique story behind a car and we all know how some will pay big money for a Porsche with a past. will they call this the Gilligan's Island run?


while considering the reproduction efforts a couple things crossed my mind on numbers.

knowing the GT2 is not your everyday production model and are likely assembled by the best of the best away from the assembly line will they only make 4? I would have to assume they have the components around to make 4 while cutting into the factory's future NIB replacement parts.


if not for insurance could they make just four of any, even a specialty model like the GT2 and have it make good business sense? so say if they were to fire the stoves and make a run of 10 cars do they all get the Gilligan moniker? and the possible future story price bump?


discuss
