Well at least they won't have to worry about RMS leaks...

Yawn...

TRAKCAR

Looks great, I like the Retro look. Nice street porsche.

Would be a great option at half the price (should be same price as a lightly equipped Carrera S), the way they usually price the "special" models which is just a way to unload cars that are soon to be replaced...

I think this extends that normal "special" envelope a little bit. The changes are quite extensive, body,engine wider rear track, etc.

I agree it makes for interesting speculation about the next 911.... 400HP?.

It is interesting that the Sport Classic doesn't have PDK.

408HP with PDK would challenge many RS/GT3 times.

Beautiful car!

I guess it's worth more than a lightly equipped C2S, but I would certainly choose a GT3 for $112k rather than this car if the price approached the same level. I don't understand why they want to limit production to 250 units, just to charge double the price. Wouldn't it make more business sense to build as many as they can for a 10% premium?

I agree that this engine probably gives a very good glimpse of what the 991 C2S will use (~410hp).

I bet they will have a similar car (with reasonable pricing and fewer special cosmetic enhancements) a year from now to move out all the old inventory of 997's to make room for the 991. That one will have PDK optional (not that I'd want it).

I disagree that this car would challenge the laptimes of a GT3 or RS. Although it has 410hp (vs. 435 or 450hp), it has a lower redline (1,000rpm lower) which means the gearing needs to be taller than the GT3 (and much taller than RS).

I like it! Wish the new RS looked this good!!

Not quite sure what the point is.
Anyone?

GrantG

Absolutely! That's a car I could get excited about - GT3RS mechanicals outfitted visually like this car would be a killer (GT3 Classic?).

YearOne

I love it but agree they should make more and lower the price. Nice colour too.

A photo. No sunroof.

Take a second look, it is a Gentleman"s GT3 (nearly) with room for the kids!

And a devine interior! Now, if it only had PDK! Wonder what is behind that thinking?

JS

New model right around the corner I say.

Kill the stripes, badges and taillights. <I'm beginning to think someone at Porsche must have fallen on their head>
