I have not really paid much attention to or asked questions about the S and I would love to find out more. The speculation is that it will have the 3.0L engine which I am not sure how it makes sense. On the other hand the late launch could be caused because it is more difficult to integrate the T-HEV on the 3.0L. I don't really know but the 510/520bhp is a fact.
I have also been trying to stick to an ICE only convertible but the answer was that the only one is the non s turbo - but it will be 2WD but also with a manual option. Or a GT3 of course.

No it is Hybrid, T-HEV. I remember seeing 510bhp or 520bhp. The S (and the GT3) were supposed to launch Jan 2025 - so even with delays it will launch in the first half of 2025.

The reason I think the .2 will not crash .1 prices, is because of the "teething pains" associated with the new engine setup. Let the more aggressive buyers beta test it, by the time the 994 comes around the hybrid will be proved in and universal across the lineup and they will have a chance to engineer out the additional weight being added to the .2 (better battery technology, etc).

There is more info but these are the points:
1. Decision between 400bhp (base) and 540bhp (gts)
2. Base is ice only, GTS is e-turbo
3. The only other non hybrid car coming is the turbo but it is 2wd
4. I would like this car to be a convertible - gt3 is out
5. S will come put in 2025
To be honest I might be equally happy with a nicely opitoned carrera 4 cabriolet. Yes the power output is significably less but you still get a great car.
The other thing I am trying to find out is how much PTS will affect the build - time wise. I can wait a few months to get the colour I want.

Please note: the GTS is mild hybrid also. It uses the 400V e-turbo technology by Borg Warner.

992.1 production is stopping very soon.
So there are currently only the following choices:
1) 2024 Around 400bhp Carrera (Base)
2) 2024 541bhp mild hybrid GTS - maybe even 2025 delivery for US?
3) Early 2025 520bhp mild hybrid Carrera S
4) Early 2025 NA GT3
5) Hybrid Turbo but manual option (2WD) - not sure when

10% on a gts 4 in europe is around 15-20k.
