My dealer advised today GT2 and GT2RS is coming for 2018 delivery. So I guess there will be no GT3s or GT3RS's coming for quite some time as Porsche is ramping up for the new GT2. Are the 918 boys getting first dibbs again?

Guys I have reported this in other posts months ago and I had this info confirmed yet again yesterday that PAG has confirmed to dealers in Europe the following dates for production.
GT3 June 2017
GT2 RS early 2018
GT3 RS June 2018
In usual fashion, model announcements to the market will be 4-6 months in advance. GT3 formal release is Geneva 2017.
Also, I was told yesterday that the 991.2 GTS may be delayed because the 991.2 S/4S is selling so well that there is no need to rush the GTS to market to act as the end of life sales kicker for when sales start to slow down.

According to the above this means no GT2 only GT2 RS. I am surprised to see the GT2 RS will be released before the .2 GT3 RS
If i am not mistaken the GTS is usually launched last in the range but i could be wrong, so it would be like 6 months before launching the 992.
GT3 June 2017 - with N/A 3.8 or 4.0? +, Manual we can take already as a fact i guess.?
GT2 RS early 2018 - i´m with you
GT3 RS June 2018 - big question for me if N/A 4.0? (if GT3 goes 4.0 - the RS goes for sure bigger - and this i can´t really imagine for the normal RS) for a limited RS-Cup-Edition i could imagine a 4.2 or so.

As I have also written before, 991.2 GT3 will be 4.0, manual as an option but limited to around 40% of production due to supply constraints and the fact that the only significant demand for a manual is the US market. Other markets strongly favour PDK.
AFAIK, no one in dealer land knows anything about the engine of the GT2. It's all speculation no matter what you read.
^^^AC you know in the spring is when everything turns green and I with admiration for you and your new green machine , sleeping much these days?? you know there is a down side .
sorry not one of you know anything, every post above is pure speculation no one knows whats coming! but if everyone chimes in with every variation possible to the forecast o f future GT cars, then in the end some will be able to claim "see i was right!!!!" its like buying lottery tickets in every numeric combination possible, no s h i t one of the tickets will be the winner! just sit back and relax and enjoy whhatever car you have now, deal with the future when it arrives. trust me on this one, i learned the hard way have a nice day
Easy for you to say. 😉 Lol!
Have fun with your frog.
991.2gt3 is definitely 4.0! From a very good source....
As some of you might have read, the R wasn't suppose to have the 4.0l. For different reasons Porsche decided against the 3.8.

Well given all the combinations of speculation here it seems that there will be no more 991.1GT3RSs
