I think fully optioned it'll be $100k, +/- $5k. Power should be around 410 hp and it should share lots of GT3 parts.

Not sure what options I would add. The only option I would put on a GT3 is the front axle lift system. Otherwise it is perfect out of the box. Pass on the annoying squealing carbon ceramics.

I'd like to think I would just have it bare bones. I mean I know it's a track car but I would like heated seats and nav. The reset can be passed as far as I am concerned.

I agree with nav. Those tracks are always so far and in the middle of nowhere. Finding your way there can be a PITA. And I would add a good sound system. The drive to the track can be long, lonely, and boring. Nothing like some tunes to liven up the mood a bit.

But why heated seats? You go to track days in the winter?

No need for a sound system. The GT3 exhaust will do just fine. They can take every speaker out of the car.

If I wasn't so dead set on a gt3 I would pick this one up in a heartbeat.

Cold is a everyday thing here in Michigan. Plus on cold nights in the spring I like to drive with the windows down and the seats on.

Yes please.
Center locks. ccbs. Manual still available I hope.
Looks promising.

GT Silver...mmmmmmm.

[F1Venom]

Looks like the best looking Porsche ever made.

[richardg]

I'd prefer no centerlock wheels just to help the costs stay lower. Not sure what benefits they offer non racers such as myself who aren't needing fast pit stops. Maybe there is something I do not know about.

No doubt.
I was just admiring the render. I wouldn't get center locks or ceramics period. On any car or brand.
That's maybe 10+ grand. But knowing Porsche.

Haha. Truth be told, even if this car costs as much as a GT3, I would still buy it.

[richardg]

If it costs as much as a GT3 I shouldn't but at 30k less assuming I could get one for 100k I would likely over a 90k m4. I don't think porsche needs to work too much on the weight since it's a very light car at 29xx to 3k lbs. I expect it to be maybe another 100lbs with the added performance parts. If they kept the same weight as a cayman GTS and just had 370-400hp they could move a lot of units imo. The real question is do they offer a 6mt for those who can't get one in the 991 GT3 or do they force a DCT. And lastly do they let you choose both? Because if they do I think the take rate will still likely be mostly DCT.

[F1Venom]

PDK would still be the more popular transmission, but also offering a 6sp manual like in the Cayman GTS would calm over the die-hard 997 GT3 owners.
