There is good info from some.
90% of threads would be resolved if posters would go test drive whatever it is they are comparing.
Sometimes it's winter and sometimes people are waiting delivery so this is how they get their fix. Much of the "data and information" is conjecture and opinion.

And some of us have enough knowledge to know that there are plenty of people on the forum with more knowledge than us, and we appreciate their input.

I retired 6 months ago at age 50. Now I own 2 modern Porsches and drive both daily. Don't we work so that we can live and not the other way around?

...and to keep the thread on topic, I visited my Porsche dealership today and they already have orders for the 911Ts. They are getting a lot of calls on it. My SA also said that the 911T has the GT3 suspension. I think he is wrong since I have not heard or read that yet? Anybody else have info on this or is the SA just wrong?

I bet they will sell a lot! To echo another poster from earlier, it sounds like the T is to the base as the GTS is to the S. Now they just gotta change badging to 911T on back instead of all those letters - suncoast to the rescue!

991.2 TTS Height = 1297mm
991.2 S Height = 1295mm (PASM)
991.2 S Height = 1285 (S-PASM)
991.2 T Height = 1285mm (S-PASM)
991.2 GTS Height = 1284mm (S-PASM)
991.2 GT3 Height = 1271mm
Basically, as standard it looks like the T gets the Sport - PASM from the GTS, RAS is a trickle down from the GT cars (and offered as an option on .2 S and higher).

A bit different, the 928 system was passive whereas the system found in the GT cars is hydraulic and active. But I see where you a re coming from. Obviously the T gets the active system

Deal maker (buy it) I mean. I had a 2010 M5 for a while, later now I have a 650ix with 4wsteering...the car is 4400 pounds fat but it handles way better than the M5 did.
I know that's a very small study on 'wheel steering' but I bet you the 911 T will be a better handler than the base car in a larger way than expected. I could as well be wrong too...
