What Porsche purists (and big pockets) are waiting: 2010 911 GT3.
New stuff ?
* Bigger flat 6,
* Bigger & lighter standard brakes,
* New 19 in wheels, center-lock style (like Carrera GT)
* Porsche Stability Management (PSM) for the first time in a GT3 (although it can fully be deactivated in 2 stages)
* Dynamic engine mounts (holy science !): now these mounts can act like mini suspension system (sort-of) to reduce the negative effect of rear engine configuration (heavy butt) in tight turning.
* Of course, new eye-candy (and functional) changes in headlight, rearlight, front & rear apron, rear wing)
Now, I wanna see the RS version ; ]
