Be assureed, the 991 GT3 will and must beat the GTR..in fact some of the 997 GT variants do this already..

Hmm, with RWD and a NA 450-475 hp engine, I can't imagine it will. It's not a direct competitor. You need some heavy duty hardware (GT2RS) to beat that thing especially the updated one.

No worries. If you've heard a 991 with PSE than you shouldn't have anything to worry about.

What concerns me more than sound, power and even heritage is durability. Something that seperates Porsches from many other carmakers.

I want absolute bulletproof design & engineering. I want a block and internals made from unobtanium, toleranced to the micron, and running engine oil made from the tears of Victoria's Secret models.

I want an engine & drivetrain so robust I can drive it off the lot and right to the tuner of my choice to have a couple of turbos the size of my ex-girlfriends triple-G's bolted on without cracking open the engine. Know what I mean?
