I hate that the T wasn't the base 991.1 - 3.4l engine and 400 pounds lighter with a 6 speed.

Man I wonder if Santa would bring me a GT3....damn that is like the purrfect car. Not sure I get the whole T thing, seems like a marketing gimmick but still a great car but so is a Miata.

Soo.. GT3 sounds vastly better, is faster, and will depreciate far less.. or not at all.. or appreciate (thus cost less to actually own)? Sign me up (if I could've gotten an allocation :/ ).

Hey, you asked for "haters."

YES. Now THAT I would've emptied out the piggy bank for. My dream 911. They could even keep the 7 speed in.

That would be a 911 TA, not a 911 T...

Maybe it stands for "Toot your own horn"

Move over folks!! The "T" space is getting crowded now that the Boxster T and Cayman T official videos have been released. I wonder if the 718 fanboys are going to be calling it the Junior GT4..LOL

Still no hate intended...just sarcasm....
