I have heard this from two different dealers now. Porsche is saying from here on out, only the RS will be built for 2010 and that the next round of regular GT3s will be 2011 models.

If there are any unspoken allocations, they'd likely be locked down thus unchangeable. The last builds are probably no later than Jan. so lock downs must be imminent if not already in effect.

A guy on Rennlist has a white 2010 enroute, actually his dealer has. It has PCCBs, mounts and carbon buckets. He has a RS coming instead. Not sure what you're looking for.

The salesperson that sold me my car last Saturday told me the same exact thing

I know the dealer in Boise has or will be getting a black on black GT3, that wasn't spoken for a couple of weeks ago. Ask for Jeff.

I doubt they come out with a new motor in one year. It will likely have the 3.8 still. For some time to come.

There is 1 white 2010 GT3 at Northtown Porsche in Buffalo NY as of this Wednesday. From what I can remember it has full black leather interior, power sports seats, PCM, XM radio, bluetooth and some other minor options. The MSRP is around $128K.

Imo, you will not see a new engine until mid-late 2012 as a MY2013. The 991 Carreras will be debuted at the IAA in Sept 2011 as MY2012's. If history is an indicator Porsche will wait until the following year to release GT3s and turbos. Porsche MAY or MAY NOT continue the current GT3 for another year.

If we do see 2011 GT3's the run will likely be very short.

Well you'll have to wait for the 2013, then the 2017 will be way better still.
