Does anyone here have a firm delivery date for their 992 GT3? I am hearing from my dealer that delivery now in 3rd or 4th quarter and there are shortages across the whole model range. Anyone else heard different?

10th June 😁 straight for ppf

11th June last time I checked. You are right, there is a shortage of stock right across the model range, mainly driven by component shortages.
My car is part of the first batch from a London OPC

Exactly what the onboards of my OPF RS sounds like. Id say it is a touch louder than mine though, but that could easily be better mic and mic position. If I was to guess they have tweaked the back box post opf to make it a bit louder.

Was thinking it may well have a rear delete on it, if it has then no probs with sound as that sounded the business .

What the OPF 991.2 3RS missed from the 991.2 pre OPF was the louder idle and the pops when decelerating. But from 4,000 rpm onwards and in the magic 8,000-9,000 rpm, it sounded to me as loud. The rev at idle was also limited at 4,000 rpm. So no early morning or late evening mound rev in the garage or triggering other cars alarms??

Yes agree with this. It’s below 4k the opf cars are quieter. I went around the ring in mine then a pre opf rs back to back and from inside the difference was indiscernible. I changed to jcr back box and it sounds the nuts.

It’s different form the 991.2.

Quieter for sure

Agree K it sounds quite subdued from that clip.

The 'angry wasp' element has gone.

Yeah, he looks after all my cars.

It will probably have a similar tone, but OPFs take the bite out of it

There’s a certain edge missing, isn’t there? I do feel it will be a great car, but also that we’re past peak now.

I slept on it

It’s even quieter this morning

Will they be able to remove the filters with synthetic fuels? Maybe for 992.2. Be good if Porsche can avoid hybridization for 911

Yes mate, I had provisionally booked it in a while ago then I confirmed the other day. You’re right though he’s super busy

As mine is PTS build completes June 15th which is a pain as I wanted to get a trackday booked for then!

It will undoubtedly be a great car but we’re definitely in the land of marginal gains. What will be interesting to see is how the new suspension behaves on the road...AP says it is more compliant on road than the previous car and also provides more grip on track. Quite some achievement !
