Porsche should build a GT3 Cabriolet
If you walk into a dealership of any of Porsche's competition, you can plonk down a big stack of cash and drive out in a drop-top version of the company's highest performance model. Ferrari has open top versions of its 769 horsepower hybrid mid-engine monster, as well as the standard F8 Spider, and even an Aperta version of the V12 track car 812 …

We all thought the last variants of the 991 generation 911 had already rolled out as the 992 chassis has been on the market for quite some time now, but it appears Porsche is rolling the old faithful on for another few months with this last 30-unit run of a special edition race-track-only model.

Porsche has been playing games with other manufacturers at the Nurburgring for years, continually upping the ante within months of competitors "beating" them. It all started back in November of 2017 when Porsche set a scarcely believable time of 6:47.30 in a then-new 991 GT2 RS. That next summer Lamborghini took to the 'Ring with its incredibly …

For the 992-generation of 911, the GT3 has a stout downforce package. The new rear wing is not only functional, but large. Apparently, though, it's not the largest wing that you'll be able to spec to your 992. That privilege will go to the select few who end up with the GT3 RS.

It might seem like Nürburgring Nordschleife lap records get broken every few weeks these days, but Porsche and Manthey Racing conspired to take the street legal record back in 2018, and have held it ever since. Porsche's 991 GT2 RS MR managed a 6:40.33, which is faster than anything else with a license plate. The only cars to set a faster official …

Both the 997 GT3 RS and the 991 GT3 RS are versatile enough to work well on the road, despite …
