Jungle drums beating stronger in UK today, and nothing to change my mind on this...

But that makes no sense given customer demand, the 911R and all the rumours.....

There will be a new manual car, just not a full-fat GT3 version, IMO. That will 99% be PDK only, as some have always said on here amongst the "rumours"!

Something for everyone? - we'll see when the full specs come out.

Yes it's all very exciting. I don't care if they don't call it a GT3 so long as it has a manual and motorsports development I'm interested.

It's getting pretty interesting. Geneva can't come quick enough.

I can't believe nothing's leaked yet.

Putting a bunch of rumours together, there's always been the lingering possibility that the GT3 will remain as it is but get the new engine. So basically a winged PDK 4.0L naturally aspirated thing.

Then there could be the spiritual 911R which would be the non-winged manual version with some non-GT3 name. Much the equivalent of the GT3RS/R pairing.

I REALLY hope this isn't the case. I want a proper GT3 with a manual.

Then again, there's probably only a slim chance they let me buy any of the above anyway.

It's a Touring version. Think 964 RS Touring, 2.7S RS Touring.

I don't want a touring version. I want a GT3.

All modern gt cars are touring versions. We don't need another version.
