Can't tell the green, maybe Viper? Too light for that I think and doesn't really look like Lizard either.

Not sure what green it is. Curious if it’s the same green as the 718 Boxster GTS 4.0 in the pics they released. Since they took Lizard Green off the configurator for the 992, maybe they’re going to add a new green color.

Looks kinda like pure Green (uni, non-metallic)
Interesting that they say it'll have a hotter 3.0TT, but lately Porsche has been giving the GTS models (across the models) a detuned engine from a higher model, rather than a tuned version of a lower model's engine. So maybe a 3.8TT with less boost and smaller turbochargers (and better throttle response)??

That “in between” gt4 engine seems a great place to start, NA for the T and turbo’d for the GTS? What about the nice gt3-width front track of the Carrera... might make it more tempting to borrow some GT3 suspension bits?
or maybe they just bundle a bunch of options together w fancy wheel bolts, an ecu tweak and alcantara seats again.

and 991.2 GTS a tuned 991.2 2S 3liters turbo?
When the GTS was a higher model engine detuned?

Seems like Porsche is re-defining what a GTS should be...

It's personal taste, but I feel like the standard fascia with the sport suspension lip is a more aggressive look than the sport design bumper. I'm actually skipping the GTS this gen as much because I'm not a big Sport Design fan.

Yes, in the past the GTS was always an up-tuned lower engine, but the new Macan GTS and Panamera GTS are using "Turbo" motors with less boost now for the first time rather than "S" motors with more power (and the 718 GTS is using a de-tuned 4.0L engine from GT4 rather than more boost on the 2.5L) and this could signal a change going forward.

I think it’s more likely to see 4 Liters 420hp 911T. A 4 Liter 475 hp GTS would not be significantly faster than 450hp 3.0 with more torque. And it would cost more development/build money to get the extra 55hp from that 4.0 motor...
