A few months ago, spy shots emerged of a curious
Porsche 911 GT3 prototype without a rear wing and looking very similar to the
911 R. At the time, few details about the car were known but a couple of new
images of the car have emerged alongside some much-needed information about it.
The car will allegedly be dubbed the 911 GT3 Touring
Package and borrow its rear wing and rear diffuser from the 911 R while having
all the other styling elements of the new 991.2 GT3. The name of the car then
implies that it will be more focused on comfort and usability than both the
normal GT3 and special edition 911 R.
Power will inevitably come from the familiar
naturally-aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six of the GT3, producing an identical 500
hp and 339 lb-ft of torque. Porsche is expected to unveil the model at next
month’s Frankfurt Motor Show.
