2019 Porsche 911 (992)

Now do a GT3 Touring in the Targa. That's the one that makes sense.

I like it. It's weird. It has to be a blast to drive hearing that engine more clearly and with a manual gearbox.

It's a little strange to see a GT3 badge on it since GT3 always get's me thinking "track focus". Maybe would have made more sense to call it just "S/C" and leave it there, like a convertible S/T instead.

Name aside, the lines are blurring a little between 992 models anyways with the latest GT3 Touring which now has back seats available as an option making the GT3 lean even more towards road use. Then you have the S/T which is meant to be a road-focused 911 but shares the same engine as a GT3 RS and has no back seats. The S/T seems more like a GT3 than a GT3.

Never did understand Cabrio love, I think the Targa is the best version of the whole thing.

Here's another track-focused exclusive 911 variant for poor people:

Porsche is readying its replacement for the Cayman GT4 Clubsport racer, the 911 GT4, and we’ve spotted it completing its final testing ahead of its launch

Porsche is preparing to take the 992 racing in yet another category, this time to replace the Cayman GT4 which is ending production.

Porsche just announced the 911 Challenge, a new one-make racer largely based on the standard 911 GT3 road car.

Race car largely based around road-going Porsche 911 GT3 to debut in single-make Challenge, Trophy series next year...

This car being announced is also how I learned that Porsche NA has a lower-level championship below the Carrera Cup. Like the new 911 GT4, I'm assuming this car is intended to also replace the existing Cayman-based cars that are currently racing.

It still feels weird to see a 911 GT4 for me. It just feels like that's solely the Caymans category.
