Following the recent 997 Carerra, Carrera4 and Targa facelift releases, Porsche is gradually preparing the upper range models. Seen in these latest spy shots of four 911 GT3s taken in Spain, we can see two current GT3 models in yellow and black (far right) plus one silver GT3 RS. The remaining black GT3 is the facelifted model as distinguished by its new facelift tail lights with black tape and smoothly cladded rear bumper fascia hidding the design lines. Also, in comparisons to the current GT3s the GT3 facelift's centrally mounted exhaust pipes look to be larger in diameter with a beveled edge. However, the most noticeable difference is the rear wing, which seems to be a blend of the standard GT3 wing and the GT3 RS wing.

Hell yeah, the Trackday porsche is still there. Gotta be one of the best Porsches in the range. The light weight and track based mods more than make up for it not having a Turbo.

The face lifted rear ends of the GT3s look very nice. Its really a simple small adjustment, but the 997 doesn't need a major change yet IMO. Leave the 998 for that.

a huge overhaul of the 911 will likely never happen. Don't like it ? Don't buy a 911. There are many buyers who love the classic look of the 911 and wouldn't have it any other way.
