2022 Porsche 911 GT3 Touring Drops Flamboyant Rear Wing, Keeps Manual

In keeping with tradition, Porsche has expanded the trim lineup of an already expanded model lineup with the introduction of a new member of the 911 GT3 sub-family, the 911 GT3 Touring. Whereas other companies may have just offered a rear-wing delete option, Porsche thinks it deserves its own nameplate.

Described as a “subtler choice that retains every ounce of the excitement, the feel and the performance you expect”, the GT3 Touring is available as a no-cost equipment package.

Beyond getting rid of the huge fixed rear wing in favor of a hidden, automatically extending rear spoiler, the only other differences over the regular GT3 concern some minor trim changes, including the aluminum window outlines, the Touring badges, and a color-coded front spoiler (instead of being blacked out). Inside, the GT3 Touring gets extended leather upholstery while the front of the dashboard and the upper side sections of the door trim panels have special surface embossing.

Anything else different?

Nope. Nein. Nothing. Everything else is the same as the regular GT3, including the 503hp (375 kW / 510 PS) and 346 lb-ft 4.0-liter naturally-aspirated flat-six that can be paired either to a 6-speed manual or an optional  seven-speed PDK automatic. The Touring weighs in 1,418 kg (3,126 lbs) with the row-it-yourself manual and 1,435 kg (3,163 lbs) with the dual-clutch transmission (PDK).

Performance figures should stay the same with the manual GT3 Touring reaching 60mph (96km/h) in 3.7 sec [0-100km/h in 3.9 sec] and the PDK in 3.2 sec [0-100km/h in 3.4 sec]. Top speed also remains unchanged at 199 mph (320km/h) for the manual and 197 mph (317 km/h) for the automatic.

You can order the new 2022 Porsche 911 GT3 Touring now for a starting MSRP of $161,100, excluding $1,350 for delivery, processing, and handling, but you won’t get delivery in the States before early next year. Also note that you won’t be able to order the manual gearbox model in California due to sound restrictions.
