@silversurfer6 accurately predicted the GTS info and mentioned the S will be a ~510hp hybrid in these posts.

I’m just asking for sources that would indicate it’s actually going to take the same engine from the .1 and offer a manual. It seems more likely that there would be a T or some other trim with a manual and no manual S. But who knows, we’re all just basing things off rumors.

This is a freaking joke from Porsche.. Selling customers "air" nowadays (or in this case paint)...

The Base car definitely carries over the engine from the 992.1. You can extrapolate from there which engine would be offered on a "T" variant, if one is ever released. Even more speculation is needed to guess ehich power plant will be used on an "S".

I’m not one to jump on the new model hate trains, but this really bothers me. Come on, Porsche!

Less expensive and they will still sell every 911 they can make. Also 2024.

If you've ever touched the bottom of the 992.1 digital dash, you'll understand. It's ridiculously hot.

Until these complaints start translating into slower sales, Porsche will continue to up charging for "air"

From some angles it looks pretty good. Like always I'm confident it will grow on most people over time to be preferred vs visuals of the .1 cars.

New upgrade headlights look great to me.
Standard circle design headlights I'm not a fan of.
I really like the extra dimension on the sides of the front/rear bumpers. As a relatively new 992.1 owner I can admit that to my eye this is a great looking car.

The dash is from the Tycan.

I don’t think it is (only) a hardware cost savings measure.

It is a design, development, and SOFTWARE ENGINEERING cost savings measure, because they can reuse the electronics and software across ALL models.
