We are just in few weeks before an official GT3 teaser. No way there is no one on RT, who knows what wing will be attached on the final product.... C'mon folks, spill a little bit info.... I don't need any details, the only thing I want to know at this time will it AeroKit wing as on the latest mules, or it will be something diffirent.....It would more than enough form me..... DxPetrov, your info about the wing is bulletproof?

I'm afraid as well... Porsche's strategy normally is to reveal more and more of a car in the weeks running up to the release. I cant remember ever having seen a big surprise like an entirely different wing... :-( Well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see...

Love that rims
+ 1, but very much dislike the wing and I am afraid that this one will be the final one...... There will then only be one direction to look at : the GT3 RS
Will you finally take the plunge and go for a strict two-seater this time?

It seems all is heading into that direction , but which one ? I am not sure yet. I still have a good eye on the 997 GT3 RS...

I'm sure you know Porsche made a fabulous 4 litre version of that car...
A bunch of rumors on Rennlist, including new Motorsports motor that is neither Mezger nor 9A1 with DFI, Ti conrods, and 9k redline. Also some hints at surprise with PDK-S, not just lighter...
73 Carrera RS 2.7 Carbon Fiber replica (1,890 lbs). Former: 73 911S, Two 951S's, 996 C2, 993 C2, 98 Ferrari 550 Maranello
What do u mean kreso ? Please be more specific !
I had 997 gt3 mk1, and sold last year my 997 gt3 mk2 (amazing car).
I liked the manual tranny and can be considered as a purist. Still not convinced by pdk.
why do you think I would not be happy with new gt3?
I have waited so long to see it, and now buying again a 997RS or even a black mk2 is growing on me.....
please be more specific kreso ! Thx a lot. I m dying now .......
997 Carrera S Triple Black Sold now ... Good car 997 GT3 triple black wow what a car !!!
KresoF1:
Got almost 95% info from my P source yesterday. Most rumors on rennlist are not true. Just his for now-purists won't be happy with new GT3...
You make it sound as if it would be a good time to invest in a 997 GT3, before their prices go up.

My interpretation: Mandatory PDK, PDCC, Torque-Vectoring, center-lock wheels, and 4-wheel steering?

Few hints since my P source is reading rennteam daily. New GT3 will be far more technically advanced then any previous versions. Sporty PDK is very important for new GT3.
We can even say that it will be start of new era for GT3...
Thanks for this Kreso... Just enough for me to keep my sanity for a little longer...
I don't mind new technology as long as the car is exciting to drive, as a GT3 should be.
SciFrog:
Manual is a thing of the past for track oriented sports car. Ferrari did away with it years ago, as did F1 and even 911 cup.
Not really true where the 911 Cup is concerned. It used the same manual transmission as the GT3 as its basis, and just had a manual shift with a sequential-type straight gate integrated into it.

...as does(did) the RSR. Most GT racing regulations do not allow automated gearboxes.

Hmm, I wonder if this strategy leaves enough room for the next Turbo.
Won't there be a conflict between a technically advanced, but less raw GT3 (and GT2 I guess) and an also technically advanced, more GT-like Turbo?
The secret of life is to admire without desiring.

Not really since despite PDK new GT3 will be a true GT3 in its core. It will have state of the art NA high reving engine, most sporty suspension that can be used daily(and at the same time is even better on the track then any previous version of GT3) without any problem(except ground clearance). New GT3 is in its character totally different beast then forthcoming Turbo.
991 Turbo will be on th eother hand more sporty then ever, but with its own character. Usable on the track, but mostly at thome on windy road and autobahn(where it will kill almost anything on the road). State of the art new turbo engine and even better PDK. Unique body(that will be used for GT3 RS) that will different it from rest of 991 range.
BTW, 991 GT3 RS will appeal to purists as well...

Dear Kreso F1,
did I understand you right that new GT3 and Turbo will use new engines developed from scratch? or deep modifications of previous versions?
