GT3RS will be NA but lighter and probably 550hp plus a base price at $200k. hopefully they retain a manual transmission in the regular carrera and C2S but that could also go away.
changed my baby on the wing of my RS. makes great changing station. make sure paint protection film is covering it. I say go for it while you can! also when they are small they fit well in back of a 911. once they are about 9 then they are no longer viable rear seat passengers.

So, it's confirmed?
I like FI but I pefer NA and for me the 911 has always been a NA flat six and that would be my first choice even if I'm well aware of the turbos. My first drive in a 911 was a NA air cooled beauty and I still remember it as it was yesterday ( over 20 years ago..), Maybe I need to go for a CPO since I'm not ready to trade my F80 yet. Not the same though, I like to be the only owner of a new car. Pity.
