The ST or whatever it was going to be called was planned years ago and the next one has been planned for now. They are Anniversary/Jubilee cars and Porsche has done one every 10 years, the last being the 50th anniversary cars. And further more the build numbers are always the same 1963, just like the 50th anniversary car before and probably the 70th anniversary car too.

This is very much a “Porsche” thing

I thought it was more like the 911R and on a 7 year cycle (same as full generation), rather than 10 year anniversary car.

I do not think the 991R celebrated any anniversary.

Speedster celebrated Porsche’s 70th anniversary as a manufacturer, and a GT product at that. The R without a roof.

The ST celebrates 60 years of the 911, and for the 1st time as a GT product.

50th Anniversary 911s with mileage are selling for near MSRP after 10 years. Low mileage 50th 911s can sell for $140k+. I'm very happy with my "flop." We can now return to regular programming...

Did anyone from Porsche or any Porsche dealer run over your ***** or not comply with your command?

Lol I'm no brand loyalist and why the diehards get so upset on obvious facts is comical. No malice, just good ole facts.

Your facts, how about providing evidence for your sometimes outrageous assertions. Thanks.

Great! As has almost every Porsche since 991 has flatlined or gained some.

Point is just because its anniversary doesn't mean its special.
