They taped over P O R S C H E GT3 so we that won't know what car it is...
They did a good job covering that up, I was under the impression it was the cab!
Like this one?

It looks like the air vent has been incorporated into the wing. I think that is what Nick is referring to.
That's correct. The taped area used to be where the air vent was.
For reference, the .1GT3 did 0-60 in 3.3 sec. .2GT3 3.2 sec. Extrapolating for hp the increase in hp will not be that great.

Well, nobody was expecting much more improvement on 0-60 (this is mostly about traction). 1/4 mile time would indicate better. Also, there is often a confusion between 0-100 kph and 0-60 mph times (difference is sometimes as much as 0.2 sec), if this matters...
EDIT: Just looked it up and 0-100 kph of last GT3 was 3.3s 0-100 kph (and was 3.1 for 0-60), so my guess is that new 3.2 time is for 0-100 kph and not 0-60 (otherwise new car is slower than last one). 0-60 time should be about 3.0 sec if 0-100 kph is 3.2 sec...

I don´t read this GT3 thread often, maybe I will tell you something you know already:
No wingless (touring) option for 991.2 GT3 - instead we will get a 991.2 T (touring) version. Porsche wanted to call it 911 CS for club sport but BMW didn't agree to give them green light - so it will be 911 t and will be "club sport" variant.

Are you saying there is a Touring or "club sport" version of the 991.2 GT3 (version with roll bar), or is the 911T a new model that is essentially a wingless GT3?

nberry:Are you saying the .2 GT3 will be turbo?
No, a special model which is a basically a lightweight Carrera with X51 engine and sporty setup.

Gnil:bvineyards:How will it be different from the R? Thanks.
Sounds it will be the same , but with a Carrera S engine
But I assume turbo then, since there is no other normally aspirated engine to use. I doubt they will make a new one only for this model, unless the same will go into the next GT4 too.
