Lindo Posted 13February, 2021 Report Share Posted 13February, 2021 It looks as though there is damage to the centre console, near the driver's side seat belt buckle on the Agate grey 991.2 car in Adelaide. Would this be caused by 6pt harness buckle?? Thoughts. 2017 Porsche 911 GT3 991 Auto MY18-OAG-AD-19551263 - carsales.com.au Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTP911 Posted 16February, 2021 Report Share Posted 16February, 2021 Digital World Premiere for the youngest member of the 911 GT family - YouTube 27.34 min into video, the 996 GT3 looks sensational😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NBTBRV8 Posted 16February, 2021 Report Share Posted 16February, 2021 I hope it is the sound recording, but I suspect that the particulate filter has taken some of the high rpm shrill out of it. It sounds a bit duller to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WGA Posted 16February, 2021 Report Share Posted 16February, 2021 I have been at the ring in person while the car was testing. It’s a deeper sound. At lower revs it’s a little bit like a GT2 sound. The high end shrill you refer to is not the same as the 991. It definitely sounds different but no less great. If you want a small sample of the sound, go to 1:15 in this video.

SS 3 Posted 17February, 2021 Report Share Posted 17February, 2021 To be expected the new 992 GT3 offers lots of tasty improvements and performance upgrades over the older 991 versions I particularly love the interior. I’m really looking forward to seeing a few in the flesh anyone here ordered one ? That REAR An early opinion i think the rear end of the 992 is a lot more cohesive in its design than the outgoing 991 almost makes the spoiler of the older car look like its just tacked on .

DJM Posted 17February, 2021 Report Share Posted 17February, 2021 992 GT3 is 4s slower than 991.2 RS so they won’t have to go crazy to sneak ahead of the old RS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, however as an overall package the base car (GT3) has a lot of good bits which are more commonly associated with the RS. more so than the out going 😬😉 DJM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s 1 second faster than the .2 RS. They now do a full lap of the ring that’s circa 5 secs longer. That was the 992s published time. They also mentioned the time to compare to the old official ring times and it was a 55? The .2 RS did a 56 ?? So yeah, they have their work cut out to make the RS make a further leap forward.

NBTBRV8 Posted 23February, 2021 Report Share Posted 23February, 2021 This makes the 1400km Purple car look cheap even if that is sans PCCB https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2016-porsche-911-gt3-rs-991-auto-my16/OAG-AD-19595208 Also the dealer has just advised me that they can't take 992 GT3 orders until the pricing is released by PCA on 1st April. They have a lot of expressions of interest in though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindo Posted 23February, 2021 Report Share Posted 23February, 2021 This is the purple car that Scuderia Graziani Tony just sold a few weeks ago. Can the learned people out there explain why it would now be for sale in Qld again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NBTBRV8 Posted 1March, 2021 Report Share Posted 1March, 2021 For those that are interested in a .2 GT3, Jake at Porsche Centre Brighton has a clubsport (I think) coming in with 60km on it.
