Both models feature a naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six engine producing 502 hp and 331 lb-ft of torque, capable of revving up to an impressive 9,000 rpm. The engine is paired with either a seven-speed PDK or a six-speed GT Sport manual transmission, both boasting an eight percent shorter final drive ratio for improved acceleration. The 911 GT3 reaches 60 mph in just 3.2 seconds with PDK and achieves a top track speed of 193 mph.

The exterior of the new GT3 is optimized for performance with a redesigned front diffuser, spoiler lip, and underbody air guides that enhance downforce and airflow. Teardrop-shaped trailing arms on the front axle increase stability and brake cooling, while modifications like the anti-dive system reduce pitching during braking. Lightweight materials, such as CFRP (carbon fiber-reinforced plastic) and magnesium wheels, are available through the Weissach Package and the new Lightweight Package for the Touring variant, emphasizing the GT3’s commitment to precision and weight reduction.
