They should offer a GT3 Touring with ducktail and a GT3 Touring RS without wing. Sometimes I feel Porsche is dropping the ball in the cow-milking game.
Mediocre, at best I am hoping for a cabriolet and a targa of each version (for my friend SciFrog, who have had to wait so long). Did anyone else hear the rumour about an all-wheel drive GT3 Touring 4?
Anyway, it will be a model fest! Like when the GTS was presented. A coupe, cabriolet and targa. Rear- and all-wheel drive versions of all three. The online Porsche configurator almost ran out of memory from all the combinations.
I get your cynicism (or is it supposed to be sarcasm ), probably the side effect of driving a Cayman instead of a 911, I've seen this before but you'll get there, eventually.
I would love GT3 tech in my 991.1 GTS Cab, I just feel ripped off by Porsche charging 163k for a car which has an "inferior" engine, chassis and brake tech. This is what many others feel as well. I understand why GT3 owners would be opposed to having this tech in every other Carrera as well but this is about feelings, emotions and whatnot, this has nothing to do with reality. Oh and of course this is about marketing and cost: The marketing department is afraid that a GT3 Cab could offend GT3 hardcore customers and the cost department would oppose the increased production cost.
Some customers aren't happy with "something", they want the "best". Porsche needs to understand but I get it...the 3%...bla bla bla...not important for them. Probably the 3% (and slowly more) they lost to McLaren and other brands.
