They made customizable stitching available for the non-GT3 991 cars.

Yes, including yellow.

Might be worth having an eye on if you might want yellow stitching or contrasting seats centers. GT3 might or might not get some of it.

#1.The non-turbocharged flat six kicks hard "‘For the first time, Porsche’s naturally aspirated flat-six matches its turbocharged sibling in terms of punch and urge,’"

#2. The stick shift operates a six-speed gearbox with what feels like a quicker action than more humble seven-speed overdriven Carreras.

#3. The new Porsche GT3 no longer chunters at idle It reflects an increased focus on mechanical refinement. (people going to go crazy on this one LOL)


#4. There is a 25mm drop in ride height and a heavily sculpted front spoiler. Downforce is improved by up to 20%,

#5. It’s probably already sold out…
Porsche claims the new GT3 is not a limited-edition model, but privately admits there is a capacity limit in the competition car department where it will be built. Our sources indicate that most of the 3000-4000 GT3s likely to be made were spoken for even before the GT3’s debut at the 2017 Geneva motor show. Better be prepared to pay overs if your name isn’t on the list…

7) The new GT3 pioneers a new sporting niche for Porschekind

Our Kacher (below left, with Porsche GT chief Andreas Preuninger) was impressed by his ride in the new GT3. ‘I’m trying to figure out - as well as you can from the passenger seat - whether this new car is a toned-down RS, a more extreme GTS, a ninja Turbo or an extrovert 911 R. In truth it has an identity all its own: it’s a more emotional yet softer-edged GT 911, an accessible yet utterly involving road racer, a special yet perfectly docile sports car. It’s the most complete GT3 yet.’

Excited about #1, worried about losing #2. I love the chuntering at idle in my .1 GT3, however I get the feeling the journalist is referring to the 997.2 GT3, since the 991.1 GT3 was PDK only, so by definition didn't have a single flywheel anyway.

Meh article. They didn't even let him drive the car.
25mm ride height drop vs .1 gt3 (doubt it) or vs Carrera?
