SciFrog:

On the GT3 some confort options don’t make sense. But on the touring version? Absolutely.

The reason why there is no GT3 touring PDK with rear seats is because it would cannibalize the entire GT3 range and the high spec GTS and TTS sales which have a much higher margin.

GT3 touring is a GT3 just without a wing.

Same harsh suspension, same noise, same track orientation. Zero difference. 

The pdk-s is different than the regular pdk and tuned for track duty. On top of that, the engine starts pulling at 5,000rpm... I used to daily drive a GT3. At 140kmh on highway, you can’t hear music...the .2 is even worst, you can’t talk to passenger...

Touring was introduced to immediately soften the price of the R which worked. People are mixing the 2 cars but they are really different. R is lighter, more oriented to road driving, single mass FW, softer suspension, steering calibration, etc...a touring is just a GT3 without wing. The R is the lightest modern 911.

 

A comfortable touring is a GTS. Look at Porker’s thread. Kid in the car = ear plug protection...
