Marketing got you on this one… it’s the same engine

You mean same displacement but larger turbos, much more HP and Torque

Exactly, the engine is the same, the turbos are different.

I agree sound is piped in which I think Porsche started with 991.2 cars.
I was asking if its a real sound and not being played through the speakers like in BMW M cars etc.

Exactly. Same engine with different driving experience and different performance.

I love this '23 GTS, it has PCCB and get lots of compliments. I've owned a 991 Touring but this GTS is great. Great sound, back seats for my little ones (can't get that in a GT3) and all the torque. I'd still like to get back into a GT3 for the 9k thrill, but I know the low down torque makes the GTS a better DD.


Black Olive GTS with PCCB
