Prices on Touring are a bit silly right now IMO. Like a 40K premium for just... no spoiler and less air induction. It’s not even rare, 1 out of 3 GT3s in the US are touring, there are more 2019 Tourings than Winged. I guess I don’t get it, but if I had a Touring now seems like a great time to sell. 👍
There were 228 Touring’s and 183 winged cars for 2019. But in 2018 there were 521 Touring’s and 2446 winged cars. To me, still doesn’t justify the $50k price increase from a wing car to a Touring. I prefer the Touring, but not by $50k for not a ton of changes over a standard .2 GT3. Just my two cents and everyone can have their own.
Having driven both, there is something different about the Touring. I look at it on paper and I get what you're saying, I do. But, I'm telling you, this car is summed up by more than what's on the stat sheet, there's something else there. It's the reason people want this car. I certainly will not give mine up so value doesn't really matter.
Thanks for the info. I agree prices are a little crazy now. Time will tell where this goes. I like sitting on the sideline watching it play out.
...and all the while, driving a fantastic car. Yeah, the Touring is a keeper alright. Mine is in the shop, getting a replacement tire (nail versus tire) and a 2-year tuneup. My GTS just does not compare and I need a fix!
Not to derail, but I would love to see pics of ice blue targa. Going to order a 992 targa for my wife and have been leaning towards Meissen blue, but would love to compare it to ice blue.
Sorry guys to derail...but Atlrvr....here is our old 991.2 PTS Horizon Blue...and we loved it....had more life to us the Meissen blue. Out of respect to this thread, NOT ever selling my GT3 Touring...

I have driven one too.
It is the same as the Winged version. You telling me you Touring guys now think your cars have some sort of FUFU Dust.
Now- the 911R a different story from what I heard but never experienced

I've driven both as well. They drove exactly the same to me... I could see better out of the rear view on the touring, but that's it.
Black Touring with 2k miles. Steel brakes, sofas, FAL, LED’s, and leather with red stitching. Asking price is $240k. That is probably $70k-$75k over the original MSRP. Madness!
