Slate Grey Porsche 911 GT3 Touring Package Shows the Understated Look

The sheer identity of the Porsche brand is built around the understated look and yet some of the present-day models show this more than others. Of course, no version in the twenty-plus model range is better at this game than the 911 GT3 Touring Package.
With its shaved posterior, the GT3 TP can easily trick a non-trained eye into believing this is a non-GT Division car, when the thing actually packs 500 horses, mixing the naturally aspirated aura with a visceral driving experience.

Then again, this is the Zuffenhausen realm, so one can turn to the Paint to Sample palette to enhance the said potential of the car. And this is precisely what the owner of the Neunelfer we have here did.

Thus, the vehicle is dressed in a shade dubbed Slate Grey - this is the kind of color that stands out without even trying.

Speaking of the machine's optional extras, we also need to mention the black trim of this Touring Package and the banana-colored brake calipers, which signal the presence of PCCB (Porsche Carbon Ceramic Brakes) hardware. Oh, and let's not overlook the Platinum Satin wheels, which complete the look of the car.

As for the cabin of this Porscha, this is just as special as the exterior of the vehicle. Goin past the manual gearbox, which is mandatory for any TP vehicle, we notice a pair of bucket seats packing Houndstooth inserts, along with Pebble Grey deviated stitching (you should also note the Porsche crest embroidered on the headrests).

Carbon fiber fans will also be thrilled and all they need to do in order to get their thrills is to check out the cabin trim.

Fortunately, the Instagram post that brought this 911 to our attention includes pictures of the car in various lighting conditions, while also allowing us to check out the interior. As such, you should make sure to use the swipe feature.


 

Here’s a lovely PTS Slate Grey 991.2 GT3 Touring compliments of Thor @tlphotodk. The build features PCCBs, black Touring pack, and Platinum Satin wheels on the outside. Note the buckets complete with Houndstooth inserts and Pebble Grey stitching, extensive use of carbon fiber, crest embossing, and of course, the manual, on the inside. Wonderful build a bit reminiscent of a Touring variant of @bluehorseshoe7 ’s winged 3 recently featured. Swipe left for more photos in varying lighting conditions including interior. Cheers, @tlphotodk. Follow @ptsgt3 for more. ---------------------------------------------------- #gt3 #newgt3 #porsche #porschegram #porschecxx #painttosample #slategrey #pts #ptsgt3
