Moser:Haha your making me doubt myself, but I’m pretty sure that’s red and not an orangy hue
I never had these doubts with my Carmine Red - sorry to see it gone this round...

I think you're cheating by not showing a 3/4 front view. The aggressive new nose does not really match the subtle rear, imo. For the rear wingless version to work totally, I think the front needs a makeover too (more than just painting the lower black plastic piece).

Hi Grant, I agree that the front needs an appropriate makeover for the 992 GT3 Touring — I will leave that 3/4 front view to someone with a bit more photoshop talent...

Agree. The front must change because without the large rear wing, the car is aerodynamically unbalanced with the downforce generated from the large front splitter.

The five stages of Rennteam (here in the GT3 forum but applicable in all):
Denial- "they'd never release such an ugly car"
Anger- "only a 3 sec. advantage over the old model?"
Bargaining- "well, all that cheap black plastic means fewer stone chips"
Depression- "my 2 year old RS is suddenly a pile of #$%@"
Acceptance- "I'm #3 on my dealer's list!!!"

A quick photoshop of the Porsche 992 GT3 Touring special edition...
That would be my choice of a Touring. Don't understand why they can't just use the small duck tail, and if needed , just make it that it raises . So much better then just sticking the retractable spoiler from the Carrera,

Something like that, yes. But about this GT3 I am still stuck on the Denial part .

We really need some of the better journalists to post driving reviews on YouTube. If there is anything negative there, could be trouble. Conversely, could spark much more interest if glowingly positive...
For the first time, Covid has delayed these reviews beyond the date that buyers are forced to commit to buying, in some cases...
