My dealership would not tell me but i was wondering if they are going to be coming out with a new 911 turbo s or will they leave the old one or is their going to be a faster one then that coming out.
I have a 2010 GT2 RS but the 911 turbo S is faster so would it be similar to old 911 turbo S

The GT2 RS is a 2011 model in the U.S. There was no "RS" before that in the U.S, only the GT2.

The Porsche 911 Turbo S is only built now and then. The last times Porsche built the Turbo S corresponded with the ends of the 993, the 996, and the 997-body forms of the 911: the 1997 911 Turbo S (air cooled with 424 HP and 400 lb-ft torque), the 2005 Turbo S (water cooled with 444 HP and 457 lb-ft torque), and the 2011 911 Turbo S (water cooled with 530 HP and 516 lb -ft torque). I think we can expect the next Turbo S in about 2015 to 2017.

While the Turbo S is faster 'off the line' than the rear-drive GT2 RS, the GT2 has a higher top speed, weighs hundreds of pounds less than the all-wheel drive Turbo S, and is quicker than the Turbo S around most road courses, if a consummate driver is at the wheel.

If you can find the specs, or can guess them you can use a car performance simulator to virtually test any car, even if they are concepts only, or whatever, try at http://www.nxgtrsim.com

They most likely will come out with a Turbo S because:

Porsche announced that the new 991 generation design for the 2012 911 will be around for 14 years before they redesign it. In that 14 years, they will update the 911 with many different variants to maintain sales. It will probably have many more variants than the 998 or 997 or 996 had.

It will probably be a while. They still have to introduce and start selling the regular new 911 Turbo.
