I asked my SE about the T 2 weeks ago now, he looked at me and said.. "well the Macan T is here so it's only a matter of time" ..keeping things very tight and concealed.
I'll do some more PI work when in the dealership on 1st Sept to collect my Cayman GTS 4.0.

Nothing here either surely it’s got to be 992.2, maybe even end of that cycle at this rate😊

I was gonna ask where Mr NO TEA is ! lol

I am not very hopeful of seeing anything in the near term regarding the T, it just doesn't seem to make sense in the current environment. They cant satisfy demand as it is.

Hopefully, I am wrong.

I have an order for a 992 GTS manual, placed in May this year. LONG time to delivery from what I'm told. In the mean time I picked up a 991.2 T and in all honesty would consider changing my order to this model. It's all the 911 anyone who drives exclusively on the road would ever need. We are in a golden age of automobiles and have become obsessed with cars that simply can't be used to their potential on public roads. My humble opinion of course.

But the biggest problem you face is likely the wait for this mythical Carrera T everyone seems to believe is coming in 992.1 form. If you think there is a long wait (there is) for a GTS allocation then the 992.1 or even 992.1 Carrera T will be even longer likely given Porsche's difficulty filling the models they currently offer and folks are looking for. So one would reasonably think a 992.1 or 992.2 Carrera T model wait would be even longer given 1) its not even formally announced that Porsche will do one 2) they have multiple 992 models recently released that they still cannot fullfil order demand for, no?

Got it..its the sweet spot but then again so is just putting the manual transmission into the base car 992 and offering that? Porsche after 3 yrs now since release (992's 1st graced us with their presence in 2019 model) and Porsche AG still will not even grant those of us who want a manual base that satisfaction. So it amazes me the number of folks in this thread who keep insisting that the Carrera T is almost here..will be made when it seems that Porsche has other thoughts from a business standpoint as well as production one. Especially since they can currently get those who want a manual (such as myself) to pony up fro an S or GTS at a higher price point as well. WIN! WIN! for them so why again are they gonna drop a Carrera T again I just cannot see yet. Just my 2 cents/analysis as a non Carrera T owner/driver but lover of the brand and all things 911 also!

Bingo!!! Me neither...but folks insist they MUST make be ready to release it soon and it will be made. My mom also said people in hell want ice water too...LOL

I can now agree, as when I was recently at my UK dealership collecting my new 718 I was advised that any 992 order now placed will be a 992.2, due next spring.
as usual the first models will be S, Base & Targa with Turbo later then GTS & T to follow even later.
so unfortunately we're looking around 2025 for a 992T & GTS.
On the back of this I have placed an order for a Targa 4S.

I look forward to still having a T but i can enjoy my 718 4.0 & Macan GTS a little longer now

It has to be the 991.2 now doesn’t it. I’m happy enough with that.

I emailed my OPC last week and was told to keep the faith it’s definitely coming no more than that.

Im in no rush and quite seriously may just keep my 991T as it’s really got under my skin.

Gibberish

Exactly the same here, I was told there's a few deposits now down for the T so there's people interested, if that's reciprocated across all dealerships then the demand is there for a T.
What's a 3 year wait when it's a 2 year wait for a Macan now
we're lucky we have some excellent cars to drive in the meantime!

I built a 2019 Carrera T and put 24,000 miles on it. I wish I never sold it as it was perfect. I lowered it via KW adjustable springs. Akrapovic cats and pipe and left it alone. No tune was needed. It had 393hp to the wheel. So just under 450 hp. Solid it for 92k 🤦🏼‍♂️ Against 992 gt3 build.

Yes enjoy what you have now...IF you have it is the lesson here cause the 992.2T is likely a 2025+ car at that IF they even make it.
You just said the magic word...keep you 991T if you have it and don't let the dealer pry it from your hands on the "promise" of a 992T cause that really is ALL it is at this point. Seen a good number of owners who have IMHO foolishly parted with their prior P-cars (Caymans and Carreras of all sorts) to get a "promised" allocation and delivery date only to still be without said car. I pre-traded my 991.1S for my current 2021 992.1S because I had an allocation and a build date but that also was 2020 and the whole market and logistics of these cars has changed much since then...thus while I would place an order for a car I'd not advise anyone to give up anything until said car arrived at the dealership!
Yes so drive them like you stole them...cause we're not guaranteed tomorrow nor is anyone a Carrera T at this point either! LOL. I just feel bad for those who keep waiting with nothing to show from it but blank looks from SA's and folks at Porsche who don't know themselves what is going on!
Ouch...another car you may get at some point but have seen a darth of GT3s on the street and they've been out what 12+ mos already? Well there are a few at ridiculous ADMs..last I think was that green Cali car that was like $320k or something!! Ridiculous...IMHO

I hold no illusions of a 992 T being a 992.1. It would quite frankly shock me. I guess my point was more along the lines of "Do I REALLY need a GTS?" rather than stating its arrival is imminent. All I know is that when it comes time and my order becomes an actual CAR, I may have a difficult decision to make. I spent 14 years in the 97 993 I just sold (and 12 in the 95 I sold in 2018) so spending an extra year or two in my current "T" won't bother me too much.
