Man, that rear end is busy - different shapes and lines going here and there - but I must say it is the best looking 992 I have seen thus far. No weird rear grille, no Tron headlight. I'm not buying, but I bet it will be a blast to drive and by all reports, the PDK will be sans the #nubbin which is brilliant. Looking forward to the official reveal...

And up from 245/35 to 255/35 front and 305/30 to 315/30 in the rear - one more cm tire in each corner...

Looks like 6-pot PCCB up front and 4 in the back. I would have thought to see the 10's from the turbo, but maybe that's being saved for the RS.

thoughts?

surprised to see that and 20’ wheels in the rear. If you can spec a base 992 Carrera with 21’ in rear I don’t see why they wouldn’t offer that in a GT3.

Maybe there isn’t room? Maybe it is different things behind there compared to the Turbo?

Seems very late in the process to be changing tire sizes. I hope it ends up with the 255/315 setup.

Don’t think anyone is changing anything 991 had 245/305 this will have 255/315

Looks thicc compared the 991s behind it. Not really happy they're moving to 21"s on the standard GT3 either. They look better proportioned on the 992, but I'm sure 19" track wheels are going to look downright silly now.
