Keep in mind that a 911 is a performance oriented sports car. It's not a Camry. Perhaps you may never be happy with a 911. While Porsche has made every attempt to broaden the line of 911s to appeal to a broader customer audience, they can just go so far before they change what the car fundamentally is designed to be.

Tires also make a huge difference. Was it on Michelins, Bridgestones or Pirellis?

but there are still gt3 and gt3 rs cars.
let`s wait to see what will they do there. i think Porsche is trying to do correct marketing thing to totally 'separate' street cars from pro-track cars. I do not really agree with this concept as it imho goes against everything Porsche was about, but, marketing probably thinks otherwise. Like Vette has pretty tame base street version and Z06 and ZR1 Porsche will probably tame down all street cars and jerk up prices on GT3 cars but hopefully will make them competitive with Vettes and other competition.
Honestly, to have less than 500 horses in that segment nowadays is quite lame. But if they want to secure all 991 GT3 cars in same 200K price segment where current 4 liter GT3 RS sits it will be very very sad. Current 997.2 GT3 for $120K is a very very sweet car. All it needs is a bit less expensive and more robust modern DFI engine. And no further changes.
