Yes, the 992 Porsche 911 Carrera comes with added performance, but not even the near-supercar figures of the Carrera S will bring back the feeling of the naturally aspirated 991.1 generation. Fortunately, though, Zuffenhausen has something else in story for those who need N/A toys in their lives, namely the 992 GT3.
It feels like we've been watching prototypes of the upcoming GT Division animal since forever and the one in the piece of footage at the bottom of the page is no exception.
The test car we have here has been spotted doing its thing on the Nurburgring and its soundtrack might just be the icing on this performance cake.
Judging by the dB side and the aero upgrade (that wing will change en route to production, but it won't get much smaller), the 2021 Porsche 911 GT3 will deliver a hefty aggression boost, one that will make the otherwise respectable update delivered by the 991.2 GT3 seem restrained.
The most likely candidate for the posterior of the machine is an upgraded version of the all-new 4.0-liter boxer that debuted on the 718 Cayman GT4, with the unit being loosely based on the TT 3.0-liter flat-six of the Carrera models. And the output will sit anywhere between 500 and 550 ponies.
Once again, buyers will get to choose between a manual and a PDK, with the latter set to pack a sharper implementation compared to the just-allright setup found on the Carrera S.
Oh, and there are reasons to believe the Touring Package is here to stay, with this possibly being introduced soon after the "standard" version of the Neunelfer - here's some spy material portraying what should be the 992 Porsche 911 Touring.
With the 992 Porsche 911 Turbo set to make its debut by the end of the year (prototypes have been running around almost naked), you can expect to meet the new GT3 in 2021.
