Yes. It came after the GT3 went PDK-only, and was billed (not necessarily by Porsche, but by the cognoscenti) as the last time you'd be able to get a "pure" manual 911.
It did really well and Porsche put the stick back into the GT3 and then offered the GT3 touring, which is basically the 911R in series-production form. Values tanked.
But I mean, come on--Porsche always does shit like this. Anyone who expected that the 911R would never be replicated deserves to take a drubbing on resale.
