I actually enjoy having the LWB’s, it makes it an occasion to drive my car. Granted it is a weekend car although I have taken it on longer trips. Once in the seats I find them comfortable and I am no spring chicken😉

No shame in that - the GTS is a great car.

I daily my GT3 lately and I've been enjoying it - here and there I get to push the car and those little moments can make a boring commute entertaining. My car has LWBs too.

Your flexibility and body shape/size plays a big role in how practical LWBs are. The GT3 is going to be stiffer and much louder than a GTS - I pretty much don't bother talking on a cellphone and music is mostly for background and not actual listening. The engine is higher strung and the car is much more reactive than a GTS and constantly feeding back to you. That kind of car doesn't work for everyone.

991.2 GT3 Touring … apparently 911R SMFW and clutch is not recommended as AP says will damage crankshaft and main bearings … 992 Touring several owners have add S/T kit successfully … is the gearbox the same 991 and 992 and could the S/T mate up to the 991.2 Touring and what about the short ratio Ring & Pinion?

Any thoughts as this is a game changer for 992 Touring owners?

I believe I saw you yesterday afternoon....after I heard you first ....going west on Immok near 41. So enjoyable to see/hear another on the road.

Went for a drive through the twisted sisters a few weeks ago with some friends. These cars are just incredible

My Touring with my sons Dakar

My Touring and my sons Dakar. He recently took delivery at the Porsche experience center in L.A. and took it to Utah for some off-road fun. (We like black cars)

Finally a Touring owner after 2 years of searching for the right car! 2018 PTS Azurro California Blue! Special thanks to @JAB12 for his advice and help throughout the search. Was going to go with a Chalk variant, but things didn't work out.


Delivery day - 2018 GT3 Touring Azurro California Blue.

Perfect color for California
