The latest Porsche 911 GT3 Touring, the 992.2, builds on its predecessor with refined design, enhanced performance, and notable options. This Harry’s garage review examines the 992.2 GT3 Touring in detail, comparing it to previous models and highlighting the changes, including the lightweight package and its effect on performance, along with a full road test and discussion of the high price.
The Touring model is available with a lightweight package—magnesium wheels, carbon roof, and carbon doors—for over $38k, though carbon ceramic brakes are an additional $12k. The base price of $239,850 rises to over $300k when including taxes and options.
Visually, the 992.2 features subtle updates at the front, black plastic detailing, and the striking Oak Green Metallic paint, a $4k option. Magnesium wheels, shared with the ST, reduce unsprung weight, while the interior gains folding carbon bucket seats with manual adjustment and optional rear seating. The cockpit integrates a full digital display, track mode, and a short-throw six-speed manual gearbox, retaining the engaging analog driving experience enthusiasts crave.
On the road, the GT3 Touring is sharp, responsive, and exhilarating, with its naturally aspirated 510-hp engine delivering immediate throttle response to 9,000 RPM. The lightweight package adds 60 kg over the ST but preserves handling finesse. Cup 2 tires provide incredible grip in ideal conditions, though they generate noticeable road noise in cooler, damp weather.
