Hello the community ! to me, it looks like the 718 clubsport MR -like wing's supports. A significant change compared with the previous GT3s. :

I zoomed in on the wing from a slightly different angle. Looks weird. I wonder if it is active aero. What do you guys think?

Saw one, I think, at the American Muscle Car Museum in Melbourne Fl. A pretty wild find and cute they put it in the ad.

Good eyes folks - +1 to the Clubsport similarity.

Yeah it looks like swan neck to me. I don't see any supports underneath. It's really hard to see though. I think the background is a green screen and the GT3 was added later. It just looks off, like it's not really there.

It's definitely a swan neck and it looks like it will be just like this GT4.

worth noting the following:

- 992 driving mirrors
- chrome window trim ala "touring"
- significant new wing and rear deck design ... is it an RS lid?

That blue looks different than Sapphire and Miami. Looks like we might be getting a new color?

Anyone recognize the color?

well its definitely not Miami (thats turquoise - and non metallic) but it could be Sapphire, its clearly a metallic color, I think its too light to be Cobalt nor is it Lapis
either ... but it could be a new (or older resurrected) color... its hard to tell under the lighting conditions...

I guess no, this is fixed, i.e. light and less expensive, yet linked with Porsche racing's pedigree.
Tastes are tastes, but I do prefer the design of the 991 gt3 wing's support.
