On one hand it does not have the badge, on the other there has been some hint it could be an initial limited edition to test the waters for a widening of the 911 line.
Could be the first model of a supposedly 4th pillar of the 911 line (after regular, GT and Heritage) that woud be the "off-road 911 derivatives".

and I can tell you first hand that these cars don't leak driven over 24" of flood water. but do not go too quick, it will fish tail....
you should see the guys at Carlsen porsche as the wack fishtailed the orange fruit past their store. *Ironically his cave is within spitting distance of the absolute worst dealer in the known universe.
pansies need not apply
preferably they put bike rack on top, Park in crowded trail heads and get door dinged by moronic SUV driving environmentalists.

Would that mean it has standard GTS PASM suspension, but everything else from a GT3 or GT3RS?
