I have heard nothing... but considering the purpose of the GT3 as a street legal track car, a GT3 cab would not make much sence IMHO. However, I did hear something about a Speedster which has historicaly come out toward the end of a models production run... But that rumor had it scheduled for the next model (997?).

highly doubtful. most cab drivers are poseurs and like sloth said, the gt3 is "kinda" for the track and cabs are discouraged by many tracks and clubs (absent a sufficient roll bar - the Gt3 roll bar does not meet the requirements). however, such an animal would be a prayer answered to some of us!

Speak for yourself Ben.

I think it is unlikely, for the reasons given about track days. The dealership informed my about the Turbo Cabriolet just last week, but no mention of a GT Version.

still think "most" is a good label for 911 cab buyers in general while it's probably a bit weak around here (among enthusiasts).
