Question How soon until a 997 GT3 ?

I know this has probably already been hashed-out but I missed it. When will the 997 GT3 be here? Will it be before the intro of the 997 TT? The dealers either seem to know nothing or they provide alot of conflicting information or they are faking stupidity so that I will purchase a car today. I am on the verge of buying another TT but would wait for a 997 based GT3 if it would be here in the next year or so. Unfortunately, I am not rich enough to keep taking 'hits' on cars and would have to do either one or the other. In any case, there are so many knowledgeable people on 6speedonline that I would appreciate your feedback. Thanks

I think we will see model intro intervals really compressed on the 997/987s as they are updated vehicles, not all new platforms like 996/986 were and recognition of the changed sports car marketplace ( demographic/economic factors ) since 1997-98.
In the late 90s , the huge population of boomers were entering empty nester phase and gobbling up roadsters/ sporty cars . If my area of well to do Silicon Valley is an indicator , many of those sports cars have been replaced by Priuses . ( "Independent " minded boomers have actually been sheep-like trend followers led by savvy marketers since the days 50 years ago of Buffalo Bob - what can I say ).
