Looks like they did just enough to make it a very desirable collector/nostalgia/investment car. But that aside, it seems less interesting than RS (to me, don't mean to convince anyone). Weight savings are very small compared to RS with WP and PCCBs. Of course, some people think that SC is special, and this is WAY more interesting, so no doubt this car will be super hot.

SC rear fenders and duck tail would have made this much more interesting (visually speaking). I agree with the previous poster that the RS is a more special car in terms of the overall package.

Basically the 100k up charge over a touring, RS fenders and bubbled roof and 20HP = collector not driver. Heck since Porsche when Public it’s all about share holder value it’s a business boys love it our hate it. Appears the 992 series has launched more special cars than any other series ……….don’t blame them for taking the flip dollars out.

I'm super excited .. and will drive the crap outta it. Pick up in Germany (as always) and right to the 'Ring - FWIW, the top, most fun I've had with Euro delivery / hitting the 'Ring were Carrera GT, 911R, GT4 - NOT my 918, or various GT3RS or 2RS - The run up to the Karrusel in my under-tired R a bit sideways was epic - I'm expecting a better experience in my ST

The most desirable 911 since the 997 4.0 RS and 991 R. Very special company.

Porsche 911 S/T: the best of everything
![](https://car-images.bauersecure.com/wp-images/168201/480x270/911st_1.jpg)
► More lightness than a T
► But only 1963 made
You’re looking at the 911 S/T, the purest interpretation of the 911 you can buy from Stuttgart.
Featuring the lightness of the T badge, the power of the GT3 RS’ naturally aspirated boxer, and the gearbox of the ‘standard’ GT3, it’s a 992 crafted purely for driving enjoyment. The only catch? It’s been built to commemorate the 911’s 60th birthday, so just 1963 examples will be made.

The best of both
The 911 S/T borrows the beating heart of the GT3 RS for one of the highest-revving 911s on the road. The flat-six behind the driver puts out 525PS like the RS, and had a redline of 9000rpm.Instead of the PDK, here it’s mounted to a short-ratio manual ‘box for far more driving engagement. The transmission itself is also geared towards lightness; Stuttgart engineers have developed a lightweight clutch especially for this model, with 10.5kg shed for improved performance on both the stopwatch and the weighing scales.
Adding lightness
The front bonnet, roof, front wrings and doors are all made from carbonfibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) to keep weight down, and inside you’ll find a lightweight roll cage, anti-roll bar and shear panel. The battery has been swapped to a more compact lithium-ion unit, while lightweight glass has also replaced the standard panes. The 911 S/T runs on lightweight centre-locking magnesium wheels, but unlike many other models in the range, this 991 doesn’t have clever rear-wheel steering; it’s been removed in the pursuit of further weight savings. There’s also less noise insulation here than the standard card, so you’ll get the full spectrum of the howling flat-six behind you.![](https://car-images.bauersecure.com/wp-images/168201/480x0/911st_4.jpg)
What else is there?
The S/T’s body has been tuned for road-used rather than out and out track performance, and that means it looks relatively restrained compared the GT3 RS, for example. There’s a gurney flap on the extending rear wing, and that’s pretty much it.![](https://car-images.bauersecure.com/wp-images/168201/480x0/911st_5.jpg)

How much will it cost?
It’ll cost £231,600, with first deliveries expected later this year.Link: https://www.carmagazine.co.uk/car-ne...porsche/911st/
