Default Power kit option??...Why not a CS-GTS instead?

It seems to me that a CS -GTS car would be a perfect amalgamation between the performance-luxury of the CS and the GT3(as it has been in the past). Why offer it up as an option via power kit option instead,( and you could order it 7 speed)..Just musing...

I wondered about this too and was told that its more likely to come at the end of the model cycle.

Why do that when they can sell just as many Carerra S's and GT3's before, and then sell plenty of GTS's once they decide to launch it in 4 or 5 years...lol.

For me anyway - this platform GTS 4 (cab) or a Club Sport edition is perfect. Has anyone heard of any Club Sport of GTS versions for the 991 coming out. What about the 50th anniversaary - any rumours to underlying content of that platform?

When sales of a model get soft or a substantial change is near and parts inventories need drawing down, Porsche releases "special" models with combos of accessories and fresh badging to suit the marketing.
