Note as predicted.....it will be the first 200 mph GT3. (not that nay of us are going to be driving that fast......but it is some bragging rights). Thank you for posting Norge911!

The need to change the steering system and recalibrate makes me nervous. I hope there was enough time to nail the feel and feedback

I bet someone will break 200mph on the autobahn (don’t think I’m interested in trying)

People have broken 200mph in stock 991.2 GTS and 991.1/2 GT3's already.. You can find youtube clips.

Yes I know. A lot depends on ambient conditions (wind, temp, humidity etc), options on the car (LWB seats, PCCBs etc). It's a different story when the manufacturer comes out and says this is the top speed. It has credibility. I think the autorags have credibility too when they test the cars and go faster etc (because Porsche sand bags HP and 0-60 times). .....but some yahoo on the autobahn with a gopro? Nah....


Oh also, don't forget that every engine has slightly different HP. I think it is something like +/- 5% from nominal IIRC. That's a fair amount.

Does this mean all 992 GT3 will come with the GPF? Even in North America?

Probably just like the rest of the models, with inert GPF-like matrix (which does nothing besides blocking exhaust flow and reducing sound).

One of the first things I will do is Dundon headers and exhaust to get rid of this crap and make it sound good again.

I agree. I was thinking sharkwerks but as I understand it, there is an ECU issue that has to be addressed.
