Now that MY2015 are going to be completed by December will there be MY2016 GT3 or will there only be RS for sale?

 

Supposedly production will end on the 991 GT3 in February of 2015 in order to start making the GT3 RS. If you want one, you'll have to find an allocation soon.

 

Re: MY2016 991 gt3. Nobody knows...not even PCNA, much less the US dealer network! In the previous 997 model, there was no MY2009 gt3 (which was the lift-face year for the .2 997, similar to what MY2016 will be for the 991). So if there is no MY2016 991 gt3 that historically might not portend anything negative long term! Except that there are other forces at work here this time around re: the gt3. Tougher Cycle 6 Euro Emissions regulations and perhaps stricter US engine rules that we don't yet know about could apply to the current gt3 991 N/A engine and limit it's longevity in the line-up! The fact that current gt3 production seems to be ending in fiscal year end 2014 this December is not a good omen! Most US NHTSA & CAFE regulations start each new year on Jan 1st! The Euro 6 emissions went into effect in September (last month) but we really don't yet know if Porsche got some exception for the gt3 and the RS due to the limited numbers in production. So frankly, we really don't know yet even if there will be a post-MY2015 N/A gt3...period!

Re: MY2015 991 gt3 RS. We thought it was going to be shown in Geneva last March! Then it was going to be introduced sometime last summer. Finally, for sure everyone guessed it would be revealed at the 'Mondial de l'Automobile 2014' in Paris, for which press days start later this week! Now...crickets!

It appears that a number of users have dealer confirmation that production will end in Dec for 991 GT3, delivery in Feb. A number of PTS orders were cancelled of this. Another user was told he is off the waitlist, because there will not be anymore 991 GT3 beyond the december build.

But this has yet been officially confirmed.
