From what I've seen of the 992.2, it's easily worth the gamble. Porsche always knows how to make the SportDesign Package desirable, that's how they get buyers to get their wallets out for it.

The First Hybrid Porsche 911 Debuts on May 28

It's 8.7 seconds quicker on the Nurburgring than its predecessor, the Carrera S

As mentioned before:

1) Public Announcement is week 22 - date is 28th of May, Tuesday

2) Allocations have been given of course for the first few months. First allocation and production month is July. Base and GTS - if GTS stays on schedule of course because of T-HEV

Whethere people here beleive it not I have had the option - as many many other cusomers - for a base production in july and August delivery. I would prefer a gts cabrio so i will get an august production car and september delivery. Of course there could be delays on these dates but this is the official schedule.

People that say all this is sceculation have to understand the following: 50k 911 cars are produced yearly. So with production of 992.2 starting in July Porsche must plan and sell 25k cars in 6 months.

In order to do this many months of advance work is required - work is usually done with the dealers i.e the buyers.

If this schedule, production and allocation work is not precisely done then it would be impossible to move 25k cars in 6 months.

The dealers on their part have to sell their allocations to customers. Usually people that will buy a 200k car in a few months prefer to know some basic details

So as you understand the production logistics are much more complicated and specifications and production schedule are set many months in advance.

EU dealers should already have access to their internal configuration so more info can be provided before the launch.

The question is if this is the 520bhp carrera S or the 541 bhp carrea GTS.

Probably it is the GTS since the S is launching next years since it seems they have delay problems with adding the “hybrid” e-turbo the 3.0L engine - this is of course speculation on my part

Official launch announcement is out in order to confirm to and convince the people that thought and posted that we are just posting speculations out of our a$$

Please note sometimes rennlist members - even new ones - have real info and will post facts - purely to help others make better decisions:

https://newsroom.porsche.com/en/2024...ted-36153.html

Now we now the time as well. I think from now on we know as a fact that the 992.2 will launch in week 22 - this is not speculation

Now let’s see about the 541bhp of the GTS
