When Porsche redefines a classic, car enthusiasts pay attention. And that classis just so happens to be the 911 GT3.
This time, the GT3 returns with a refined vengeance, marking its anniversary year with over-the-top engineering.
For the first time, the Touring package is also available at the launch of the 911 GT3. This option replaces the large rear wing with a subtle spoiler, preserving the elegant lines of the car without sacrificing performance.
This nod to the 1973 911 Carrera RS 2.7 gives the new Touring timeless appeal.
So what's new?
The front and rear of the car have been re-sculpted with aggressive aerodynamics in mind.
The reworked front diffuser and fins, along with a newly shaped rear wing, create more downforce than ever before, helping you stick to the road like glue.
Matrix LED headlights and a sharpened rear diffuser add a contemporary edge to the aesthetics. You also get an extended rear spoiler for aerodynamic balance.
New lightweight bucket seats made from CFRP come with folding backrests and integrated thorax airbags. The seats also fold nearly flat, so yes, you can technically use your GT3 as an everyday driver (we know where your heart lies).
If you’re not planning on wearing a helmet every day, Adaptive Sports Seats Plus offer a perfect blend of comfort and control with electric 18-way adjustment.
And, as you’d expect, Porsche’s interior remains a luxurious space, albeit one designed for performance.
A digital instrument panel, clear displays, and an anti-glare “Track Screen” keep all the essential driving data front and centre.
Staying true to tradition
Powered by a naturally aspirated 4.0-litre flat-six engine, the 911 GT3 delivers 503hp and 450Nm of torque.
Porsche purists will appreciate that the engine kept its roots, with a blistering 0-100 km/h time of just 2.5 seconds.
And with a top speed north of 350 km/h, safe to say speed isn't a concern.
Whether you're opting for the PDK or the six-speed manual gearbox, both come with an eight percent shorter final drive ratio, translating to faster acceleration and more excitement on the road or track.
The anti-dive system, inspired by motorsport, keeps the GT3 stable under braking, allowing for better handling through sharp corners and when flying over curbs.
A GT3 for Your Wrist
Porsche Design has also created a chronograph exclusively for 911 GT3 owners.
This bespoke timepiece reflects the precision engineering of the car, with a titanium case, Porsche Design WERK 01.200 movement, and flyback function.
For those in Singapore, pricing details will be released soon, but the thrill of owning a 911 GT3? Priceless.
