Milanno:
991 TTS is incredibly fast, but it is also heavy. I am not sure that Porsche wants to be seen through 991 TTS as their peak of 991 engineering. Only logical reason for banning GT2 from production would be Porsche 960
There is no real problem with the 991 Turbo S weight. Have you seen the Hockenheim Kleiner Ring time for the 991 TTS and the GT3?!
The Turbo S has, in my opinion, one single issue: The engine is at it's power peak (almost) and the exhaust sound is loud, incl. that amazing "whoosh" sound but it isn't as emotional as a Ferrari or Lamborghini for example. Porsche still needs to learn a lesson or two about emotions.
With the proper engine and power (around 600-620 hp at max), the Turbo S would be unstoppable.
Porsche could also shave off let's say 50-80 kg of weight if they use more lightweight material and structural improvements, which would add to the dynamics.
Also, I wish Porsche would offer a different interior in the 911 top models and of course a slightly different look (headlights and backlights). Take the LED headlights for example: If you order the Carrera/S with the LED headlights, you get the same look, incl. the DRL.
