I've actually been thinking a bit about that too. How big of a price gap between the base model and the high performance model is too much? The Mustang GT500 will probably also be 3-times the cost of a base Ecoboost. But that probably won't be a problem given the 700+ hp. But would people buy a Mustang that costs 4x, or 5x the price? I guess if it had performance to match, but I think the upper limit is when it gets close to the price of junior supercars (R8, 570S, Huracan).
With the GT2RS, it is every bit as fast as the other supercars in that price range, and it's limited in production so that helps. I think the other thing is, that even the base 911 is a luxury sports car. If the base model was an econo car, more people might turn their nose up at it. I also think that to a degree, 911 guys kinda like that it's a bit under the radar.
