It's the cover story and no GT3 in the top 10! Three different turbos (different model years) make the list, as does the GT2. Go figure...

I just picked up the issue, great read. I too was surprised to see the 3 missing.
I was also shocked to see the new Turbo make the list.

Alright fellas- in no particular order:

1973 911 Carrera RS 2.7
1978 930 Turbo 3.3
1981 SC Targa
1987 Clubsport
1989 Speedster
1992 Turbo S
1995 Carrera RS 3.8
1998 Turbo S
2004 GT2
2010 Turbo

there's a seriously major omission here-

forget it, its just somebodies opion.... I know the all time greatest is the 997 GT3 RS

Actually, the list is a joke if they included the 81 SC Targa, it may be a nice car but there are so many better 911s out there........

Dude... I don't know about you but I'd pick an 81 SC targa over a GT3RS anyday.
