I will probably have to be heavily sedated and committed/sectioned if not...
whoever sees any Porsche web special 1st should post a new top level thread...
tick tick tick...
I really wonder if it will have the "350Z" exhaust or not ... I'm betting that it wont, since I think that will be a facelift feature ... but only time will tell ...

Very interesting and exciting times for Porsche.
The possibility of a switch to turbo's for the 991.2 is the most important factor in determining the desirability of this soon to be unveiled GTS.
Could the 991.1 GTS truly be the last 3-pedal non-turbo 911???

apart from the 3.8L GT3s I dont recall another 911 "facelift" 2nd generation (as opposed to a new generation) car that had a (completely) new engine so perhaps the 992 (which I think are the mules we have seen photographed) will appear sooner rather than later?

good question ... I guess we will know more about the GTS sooner or later, I guess we wont know much about the next generation until it appears ...

This is partly what leads me to assume the likelihood that the 991.1 to 991.2 facelift would also mean an entirely new engine which would possibly be a turbo in this case.

Good evening to all - I have an update from a NE Ohio dealership. Porsche USA has a dealership grass root meeting next Wed/Thurs. (October 15/16) in Vegas. 1st day is Porsche Financial, and Service/Parts (boring); 2nd day is Marketing and New Products (Us).
His feedback, 911 GTS is confirmed; wasn't sure whether it's a facelift. Orders will start in Nov/Dec, with a delivery as early as February/March. He will have specifics on October 18.
All for now...

I feel that the likelyhood that 'the embargo' will be lifted on the 8th when the dealers are only likely to be told 'officially' about it on the 16th is a bit unlikely.
So now I am going to sedate and commit myself voluntarily until the 16th.

shoot you are right I forgot that's when the 9A1 was introduced ... we GT3 owners are very insular.
