    Re: 992 Sport Classic

    GT3ZZZ:

    Two more Heritage models are due as per the Sports Classic press release. Expect these next year:

    992 Dakar to celebrate the only 911 to ever win the Dakar rally in 1984 

    992 60th Anniversary 911. Limited to 1,963 units

    So, what about the 50th Anniversary Carrera RS?   Maybe that's a real GT product, rather than an Exclusive Manufaktur version of a Carrera GTS 3.0?  Or maybe the Safari car is more substantial than an EM makeover and won't be one of the 4 Heritage Specials?

    No Heritage models will be from the Motorsport side of the business.

    I got that - just not sure if 50th Carrera RS is a Heritage or a GT product (was led to believe it’s a Heritage).

    And I‘m not sure if the 992 ST and the „50th Carrera RS“ is maybe the same car…Smiley…then it would be from the GT Division.

    Re: 992 Sport Classic

    The 4th Heritage car should be the 911 60Th anniversary, no?

    I'm pretty sure these are different cars.  ST has no ducktail and has flared front as well as rear fenders. 73RS has ducktail and only flared rears.  This is why an ST based on a wing-less and vent-less 992 GT3 RS makes so much sense (RS Touring with Manual, if you will). 

    I also haven't given up on the possibility of a 50th Anniversary RSR (maybe even mid-engined like the racing car)

    Congrats! So, if l may ask, what is the deal now ? You pay double price or purchase 5 Macan T or both Smiley just curious, and l expect no details but l guess in Germany you would need to lease the car first for a year minimum and then perhaps take up a new taycan … the rest is mere envy !! Smiley

    It would seems Porsche had been prioritizing the Sport Classic and PD 50th Anniversary for production right now.

    Longterm loyalty finally paying off I guess, plus zero cars ever flipped. Missed out on a whole bunch of stuff previously as well 911R, 991 Speedster, 991 GT2RS etc, etc,

    Re: 992 Sport Classic

    And I thought the Ferrari F8 Tributo was a bad call.

    The performance is underwhelming for a car that's supposed to be lighter? special and different from rest of the 911 lineup, with a starting price at 281k euro. They tried to do a 997 GT2 and slap another 100k through parts bin but  angry


    Re: 992 Sport Classic

    Looks kinda cool but don’t disagree that you could get cynical on it. Like that 991.2 turbo s exclusive number, whatever it was called. Whoopsy didn’t you get offered one of them? How was it in the end?

    Yes. BEST CAR PORSCHE OFFERED. PERIOD.

    I would sell ANY GT cars before selling my Exclusive. 

    GT cars are dime a dozen, they come and go. The Exclusive is the first car that came out from Exclusive Manufaktur in a long time. With only 500 cars it is much more exclusive than any other Porsches. 918 918s? 991 911Rs? 4-5000 GT3s? 3500 GT2RSs? Yeah the numbers aren't even close. 

    Extra power over the regular turbo S? Checked. Exclusive Power Kit. 

    Bespoke exterior? Checked. Carbon hood, carbon bubble roof. Exclusive Manufaktur badging. 

    Bespoke interior? Checked. Model specific seat pattern. Model specific roof liner that's laser cut, just like the seat pattern. Every single Exclusive leather option present. Still unmatched carbon fibre trims with copper weaved in. 

    Bespoke wheels. Porsche created a new assembly just for the carbon wheels for the Exclusive.

    Even the Gold Yellow colour is still on lock out I believe. 

    And the best feature? It retained the PDK. 

    The 992 Sport Classic was along the same line. But it came second, or third, or forth out of  Exclusive Manufaktur, depends on how one counts. Definitely not the first. Interior aren't actually bespoke, it is just about the carbon copy of the Heritage interior package Porsche offers on regular 911s. And they are making way too many of them. If one REALLY wants a Sport Classic, go find a 997 Sport Classic.

    I guess it depends what he want in expecting -it's no 2.7 RS successor and was not intended to be. Mine should be here in 6 weeks. My one and only limited series allocation from Porsche.

    Wow, good for you Cray, I hope you can share your spec and pics when it arrives, with those big arches and unique features it is certainly a special 911 blush
