The black targa bar will be a $3800 option.

Hopefully someone in the meeting will "leak" a photo, like this one from last year's meeting:

Good point. Was it for sure not discussed?

Also, could just be coming for the 991.2's, which is definitely an opportunity to roll out even more variants. Worked for the 997.2's, why not repeat what works?

991 Targa 4 GTS leaked.

Reference this thread: https://rennlist.com/forums/991-gt3/...l#post11754888

This page: https://www.porschedriving.com/exper...ng-experiences

And this screenshot (in case they take it down from the page above):



This also confirms the 991 GT3 RS, but that's not a surprise.

Nice find! Now we just have to estimate when it might be released. Announcement in LA?

Too soon for a 992, to be honest. (New generation 911.) But who knows! Can't wait to find out.

Keep us posted, please.
