When looking to buy a GT4RS and a GT3RS, I brought the VINs to my local dealership, and I was told that Porsche did not offer extended warranties on RS models, unless you are buying from a dealership. Then, you can get a CPO for 2 years with an option to extend for 1 year. I checked with several non-Porsche extended warranty companies, several of which had terrible reviews, and none of them would offer one either. There is one out there that will (for $7k) cover you with a max payout of $20k.
I plan to track my car, and I spoke to a few friends who bought 991.1 and 991.2 GT3RSs. They both had transmi$$ion problems which were covered by their new car warranty. Although I had my heart set on an RS, I decided to go with a 991.2 GT3. I checked again with my local dealership as well as the selling dealership, and extended warranties are available for those. I've been track driving for over 2 decades and several Porsches, and I have NEVER not submitted claims that have paid for the extended warranty at least 2x. If buying a new transmission would not bother me financially, I would have gone for an RS.
