2013 Porsche 911 GT3 Virtually Undisguised!

We bring you the best shots to date of the type-991 GT3!

Our trusty Teamspeed spies delight us today with the best 991 GT3 images to date. In these photos we can clearly see the typical GT3-style front bumper , staple centered twin exhaust pipes, and a new style rear wing which appears to be the same as the aero-kit rear spoiler option found in the standard 991 order-book. Our gut tells us this wing was simply affixed for testing purposes as the production version of the new GT3 should have a taller more pronounced wing.

Interesting to take note of the new massive multi-spoke center-lock wheels and the strip of camo tape on the top of the rear bumper, hiding either a row of air-vents or possibly a C4S style reflector strip.

Power is expected to be around 450 horsepower and as mentioned earlier in the week, August Achleitner, the 911 project chief, confirmed that Porsche's motorsport division is currently testing both manual and PDK versions of the new GT3, and If we look closely at the last picture below it does appear to be a paddle on the steering wheel which would suggest this mule is featuring a PDK transmission.

Stay tuned for more news!

Are non-rs GT3 going to be wider than regular narrow body C2S now? I'd imagine Porsche would have stayed the same?

never know. this is just a testing mole. they could simply just testing the motor in a C4 chassis. any combination is possible. and this can't be the final version of the wing either.

Looks like a the side rockers have add on like the 997 GTS. I dont think the body is any wider itself. Looks the same to me.

Can't wait see it in production! Looks almost just as good as the 997 GT3!
