Is that an option for the new 911 turbo ?

I'm glad to see you have a good sense of humor.
Kudos to you for that.

Even in your quote it clearly says that the Gt3 still uses the Gt1 block:

Yeah, I did f#@k that up. Get in a hurry and that's what happens. Brain fart...

no problem man...actually, that is a common mistake people make regarding the facelifted GT3 engine, because when they see it is a 3.8 instead of a 3.6, they assume it is an all-new block, like those on the facelifted 911's..

to the op - the new ruf v8 may be the best $350k you ever spend.

if sound is paramount for your enjoyment of a car, you should not consider a turbo anything.

There was a video recently posted where a GT2 was made AWD by 9ff.

none of this makes any sense. if you want an automatic, buy a PDK 997.2TT and put an exhaust on it.. if you dont need an automatic, buy a GT3RS. there's nothing else to discuss here.

Did you just say 3000 lbs?

Do you offer that package for 997.2 Turbo's as far as suspension and carbon fiber body panels?

Agreed, get an F430 with Eisenmann or Quiksilver exhaust and call it a wrap!
