You can only have white, gray, orange, and purple.

Didn't know they were Suns fans.

They really should pick a better team. Take it from a Suns fan.

Omnis · Mar 17, 2015

Maybe they chose Suns colors because they know you'll trade it before your contract is up.

The Purple looks awesome with silver wheels!

But PTS (paint to sample) will be available for the later production run RS's... mexico blue for me please.

SlipZtrEm · Mar 18, 2015

Purple should be on more cars. Something that dark, doubly so.

I've read an owner on Rennlist is already in line for one; gave up his early allocation for a PTS in the 2nd upcoming run. 👍

Agreed, Midnight Purple specifically. Gorgeous colour, that one.

Future Porsche GT models will not be turbocharged, also manuals could return for GT3s

AudiMan2011 · Apr 28, 2015

Apparently, flat-eight engines were considered for the 911, but it won't happen.

A new 991 GT focusing on driver involvement is being planned.

Maybe it'll be the Porsche 911 GTS?

There already is.

The new planned 911 GT is said to going back to basics in order to maximise driving pleasure.

Eunos_Cosmo · Jun 4, 2015

One name that hasn't been used in a while is SC. They could call it the 911SC. Or even...shudder....the 912.

I doubt they'll resurrect the 912 name again unless they offered the upcoming turbocharged flat-4 that's signaled for the Boxster and Cayman

Omnis · Jun 5, 2015

Haha, I was going to suggest the 912. That'd be pretty funny.

Leonidae@MFT · Jun 6, 2015

They *could* revive SC-RS moniker. It still is one of the best sounding Porsches ever made.

Omnis · Jun 7, 2015

Is there like a guide somewhere to all the naming conventions? Like, what the heck is an SC or SC turbo, etc?

Most of them don't mean anything - S, L, R, C, D, E on old 911's for example, simply differentiate different models within the same production period. The SC designation was 1st used on the 356 right at the end of its life - The S was added to the 356C to denote trim/power vs other 356C's.

That looks much cleaner. I hated how the LED DRLs stuck past the air inlets.

Eunos_Cosmo · Jul 20, 2015

Glad they fixed the ugly DRLs from the 991.1 but I don't like that additional surfacing on the front fascia. It would look better smooth.

Leonidae@MFT · Jul 20, 2015

... Can't tell the difference.. Other than then DRLs.

It's just a minor facelift. There usually aren't major changes.

Omnis · Jul 20, 2015

I bet they changed the DRLs because you couldn't tell a difference between the 991 and the new Hyundai Sonata at night.
