Or, confine yourself to this thread and have at it.. this is now the official clown thread.. a "saferoom" of sorts full of pillows where we can say anything without hurting ourselves or others.

Speculated and not confirmed: 991.2 GT3 will be rolled out on Facebook rather than a formal setting like Paris. The future is here and if you would like to test drive one the virtual simulator app is available for a small fee.

You are, just don't start posts with the word "confirmed.." followed by utter bullsh!t

Wow. Watch the video...
Well thats what the next GT3 will look like then. Pretty much the fully finished look we will see. Front and rear bumpers identical to production car as with door and door handles. new lights have something different with the lower lens.
The article says 3.8L making 460 bhp with paddle shift. The 3.8L bit could be an upset if true?
Front bumper looks better than GT4 to me. But it looks a bit "buck toothed" to me - a bit Ferrari 360/430? I will miss the large side vent apertures of the 991.1 GT3/RS
Rear valence is clean lines and looks fine. Shame about the vent missing and I still dont understand why we needed those new rear lights - they look busy.
My biggest disappointment was the door handles with the new scalloped faring pressed as a stamping in the door. The stamping is fine but the handle looks odd or is it just me? Maybe thats the Cup version but I quite like a flat handle here.
Overall Id say its what we were expecting. To be honest I wanted it to look better than this but I believe in the flesh, as is usual it will, and in no time at all we will get used to this new look. Porsche usually get it right...
In the meantime, my girl last year after a hard wet track day...good view of the "old" style 991 GT3 LOL!
