OK, I'll play. Surprised nobody has asked this, or maybe I missed it...will there some type of successor to the 911R for those of us who want a N/A motorsports-derived engine, MT, and no wing?

960 and/or mid-engined 911 back on the table? Might as well ask...

You will see it soon, in the next couple weeks.


As I mentioned in a post 2 weeks ago, you will see this special special color, which is in pearl/pearlescent finish, so its far from signal yellow. The name is correct though. However, this color will not be available on ever 911 to be optioned, you'll see. That's all I can say now.

No... I'm sure the demand is good there. Just Porsche handles Canada separately and there's a lot going on still. You'll likely know more in the next couple weeks.

We'll see. Don't have exact numbers yet. There are less and less VIPs as we speak due to PCNA's hammer. I've also heard a few 918 customers who said they won't be interested in the GT2RS. There should be some allocations for dealer pool allocation this time around.

But I can tell you its safe to assume the ball park will be similar. No, production will not double. No, production will not be half.


3,100 .1GT3 produced. Sound accurate?
2,500 - 4,000 .2GT3 expected production. Sound accurate?

more like 2100 total .1GT3 produced for north America.


so 1800 - 2600 should be expected.
