The Ideal New 911 GT3 Touring Package Spec: PCCB or Front-Axle Lift?

Until this spring, my husband owned a 911 GT3 Touring (991.2 generation). He was particular about its options and specification, and spent months debating whether to sell it. This spring, though, he finally decided to let it go. Then, the other day, he showed me his configurator choices and said, “If I were buying the new 911 GT3 Touring Package (992), this is how I’d spec it.” His choices are, of course, a matter of...

What Is PTS on the New Porsche 911 GT3 (992)?

Porsche PTS: A Popular Topic Among Owners Lately, posts like “I ordered a new Porsche 911 GT3!” and “I got an allocation!” have been popping up on social media. And among them, you’ll occasionally see someone say they ordered their car with PTS. It seems buyers in Japan weren’t previously able to order a car with PTS, but requests have become more common since the 992 arrived. In this article, we’ll explain what PTS means...

We Sold Our Porsche 911 GT3—But Maybe the 992 Is Why We Don’t Regret It

Do We Regret Selling Our Porsche 911 GT3 Touring? We sold our Porsche 911 GT3 Touring this April. It was a special car—one my husband had carefully configured to his exact preferences before buying. But it was simply too capable: in everyday driving, we rarely had the chance to make full use of its performance. In the end, we reluctantly let it go. Since then, I’ve been asked many times: “Do you regret selling the...

Does He Regret Selling His Porsche 911 GT3?

Letting Go of a Porsche You Love I’d seen plenty of comments on YouTube and social media like “I regret selling my 981” and “I love the engine sound too much to let it go.” So I recently wrote an article about regretting the decision to sell a Porsche 981 Boxster or Cayman, and it got quite a response. In that article, I mentioned that when my husband first started driving the GT3, he was...

[Porsche Options] Should You Get the Front Axle Lift System on the 911 GT3?

The GT3’s Front Axle Lift System A reader recently sent us this question: I’ve placed an order for the new Porsche GT3. Should I add the optional front lift? It’s expensive, so if possible, I’d rather skip it and put the money toward other options. But would it be difficult to live without it? That’s the question. The GT3’s front lift is officially called the “Front Axle Lift System.” Because the GT3 rides low, even...

Porsche 911 GT3 (991.2) Club Sport Package Manual Test Drive

Test-Driving the Porsche 911 GT3 (991.2) The other day, a blog reader kindly let me take their Porsche 911 GT3 (991.2) with the Club Sport Package and manual transmission for a drive. We recently had a 991.2 GT3 Touring with a manual transmission at home, and I’ve also had the chance to drive a 991.1 with PDK and a 991.2 with PDK. Each time, I’m reminded just how different the same model can feel depending...

Goodbye, GT3: Why We Decided to Sell Our Porsche 911 GT3

The Porsche 911 GT3 We’d Always Dreamed Of My husband had dreamed of owning a Porsche 911 GT3 for years, and in May 2019, one finally came home with us. Ours was a rare version of the GT3: the Touring, without the rear wing. Without the wing, it could almost pass for an ordinary 911 at first glance. But there was an unmistakable aura about it—and finished in Crayon, it had the feel of a...

Porsche 911 GT3 Test Drive: The PDK and Manual Are Worlds Apart!

Test-Driving a Porsche 911 GT3 with PDK The other day, my husband got to test-drive an owner’s late-991 Porsche 911 GT3 with PDK. The owner kindly offered, “Your wife should take it for a drive, too,” so I gratefully took him up on it and drove the car myself. I was surprised by how different it felt from our late-991 GT3 Touring with a manual transmission. My husband has already written a detailed review of...
