The flat-six still produces 510hp and 450Nm, still revs up to 9,000rpm and sends power via either through a 6-speed manual or 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearboxes. The claimed speed is 0-100kph time in 3.9 seconds, while with the automatic, that comes to 3.4 seconds. Both gearboxes have had their final drive ratio reduced by 8 percent. The dampers are put to good use to improve control over bumps and kerbs and have been tuned accordingly. The anti-dive system has been tweaked to reduce forward pitch while braking even more.
The updated 911 GT3 Touring which does not get that large rear wing and is more road-focussed, get optional rear seats. This requires the fitment of carbon-fibre front seats with a folding backrest, to provide access to the rear seats. Minor updates can be seen on the front and rear, which include new Matrix LED headlights, a larger front air intake, and some aero elements as well.
