    In my opinion the 991.2 Gt3 is more beautiful than the 992 gt3. Straight-line performance is identical. As for the times at the Nurburgring, the difference on the 20 km track is around 12 seconds. However, the 991.2 gt3 was fitted with michelin Cup2 while the 992 gt3 was fitted with cup 2R, this means that if the 991.2 is fitted with the CupR, the gap is certainly not 12 seconds but a few seconds less. Having said that I'm not saying that the 991.2 is technically better than the 992, but the differences are very minimal. Probably only a very experienced pilot notices small details, everything else is just marketing. On the European market, a 992 GT3 with few km (miles) is valued at around 240/250k. A 991.2 Gt3 with few km (miles) is estimated at around 180 / 190 k. In my opinion, the approximately 60k difference is not justified.

    I completely agree . I have a 991.2 GT3 manual just bought it 5 months ago and love it . Upgraded with a sharkwerks exhaust and a numeric short throw shifter and not its perfect especially for the road and mountain roads. I don't plan on driving it on track i prefer to use theirs and not put the wear on mine

    992 Front suspension is the main point of difference. It is an absolute step change in capability. The rest of the package differences whilst substantial are more subjective and I can understand why some like 991; Similarly, why some prefer 997

    Very informative regarding the incremental improvement of the 992 you have hit the nail on the head. The only downside is the PCM which is poor compared to 991 as it’s a distraction and in my opinion demands more heads in interfacing. A video on the 992 PCM and how to manage it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for a cracking video.

Looks are subjective I know however my take on the 991 v 992 looks debate see me preferring the 991.2 Touring to the 992 Touring however the 992 Winged car eclipses them all to me. I have to say that the chatter about the suspension being stiff and making the car busy is somewhat unfounded on me. Expecting the worst I was so surprised at how well and composed the 992 actually rode. It's a very well put together suspension package that works everywhere just perhaps not as well on the English B roads.

    I drove both cars (Touring version). 991 is the winner. Feels like a glove, sounds rawer, there are less made, feels smaller. 992 feels larger, motor engine is reduced. Don’t know why but there is more space between the tires and the chassis on the 992, therefor 911 looks lower. Driving my 991 GT3 Touring daily and love it every mile ❤

    992 rear end (and the whole rear half of the car) is leagues ahead, but I think the original 991.1 front end is the best and prettiest. The 992 just refines the shape more, and crucially for me there's less body panel above the rear wheel as it's designed with 21" wheel in mind (991s with 21" rear wheel look "jacked" up to me). 991 rear end can look quite dated, especially bad with the clear tails in certain body colours.

    992 GT3 got a better performance (only notifiable & usable for expert drivers, or addicts with that on the paper...), but loose charm (face & rear + rear spoiler, ugly; front face too much sanitized while 991.2 has nice nose holes, & rear face is too massive), and, interior is not charming neither. On my opinion, 991.2 is the best "modern 911" as "all-in-one compromise", it has good look, good performance, good & soft tech onboard (I like tachymeters & also middle console climbing), quite enough. 992 is just to "sell a new model", because modern world wants evolutions, but 992 became too much the sport car of the modern "bourgeois"! I will personnaly prefer a 993 with famous angry rear face than a 992!
