The Touring really show off the beautiful, classic rear lines of the 911. The winged GT3 looks awesome - much more imposing than the GT3T - but the wing does camouflage the posterior lines of the car, to my eyes, anyway. Even though the 991.2 GT3 is wider than the 997, it looks almost as svelt as the 997 in the picture below. An illusion to my eye, yes, but either way, man, that's a gorgeous car.

Given 997 4S (widebody) comparison above, it's not that strange, I think. Both same exact width at 73 inches, no?

Perhaps, but not all wings are created equal...

Fbroen - I think you are correct. I just looked it up: 72.9 inches width for both the 997 C4s and for the 991.2 GT3.

- Amen. The significantly better engine seals the deal for everyone that isn't already heavily invested in their R and its inferior motor
you should expect attacks from Porsche elite on these true comments ... they live in a magical world free from truth, facts and reality lol
