991 GT3 Facelift (2017)

sod the looks. lets hope they get the engine right this time.

so when you spend 120k on the car it does not need 2 engine re builds in the first 2 years of ownership. very poor from Porsche and destroying the GT3 brand with crap engines and PDK.

back to top engines, lack of refinement and manual boxes please Stuttgart!

Mines 2 years old and only on 1 engine replacement.

There are undoubtedly some problems but its blown out of all proportion on the interweb. Just like the 996 problems, its so annoying having to negotiate those broken down 911's on each and every trip you do.

I'd agree I think about 80% PDK and I also expect the price to go up from the 991.1 based on GBP rates now and VW wanting to recoup as much money as possible.
 
Hi all


I think the basic price will be around 110-115. A decent spec car with ceramics will be close to 135-140. They will for sure go for a premium and I think the current 991.1 GT3 will not drop by much. They won't go for less than 100 that's for sure.

This is my prediction.
 
Love the GT3. I'm thinking of enquiring about one with my OPC. Any chance of getting a slot? I've bought 2 cars from them within the last year. Or is this small fry in GT world?

Drat! Almost... sadly, I don't doubt you for 1 second

Put it this way, let's say there is 1 GT3 available.

Customer 1) Put his name down on the list for new GT3 over a year ago and last bought a porsche 3 years ago.

Customer 2) Bought a 991 Turbo S, Macan and a Cayenne GTS this year and today decided to want to have a GT3.

Customer 2 will get the GT3 and Customer 1 won't get a look in.

It's all about numbers. I have 4 customers with 911R's and know exactly what you need to do if you want the special edition cars. Putting your name on a list early doesn't necessarily mean you will get one.

I've spent £173k at my OPC this year and £319k in the last 3.5 years and I'll still be lucky to get a GT car I'm told :sad:

I had my £10k deposit in for the r since August 2015. Missed out on that and put it on to the new RS. I've been told I probably could get a new gt3 and as long as I play the game get the RS as well. The game being that I use Porsche finance and they always get first dibs on the car for trade in. Who knows though
