5 Coolest Features of the 2018 Porsche 911 GT3 Touring
There are plenty of reasons the Porsche Silver Spring team loves the Porsche lineup. Porsche vehicles are elegant, high-performing, and timeless, so it's easy to see why we like them so much. But when it comes to the 2018 Porsche 911 GT3, outfitted with the Touring Package, we couldn't pick one favorite feature—so we picked five. Here they are, in no particular order: the five coolest features of the 911 GT3 with Touring Package.
1) 500-horsepower engine
Need we say more? Beneath the hood of the 911 GT3 with Touring Package is an envious engine. It's the 4-liter flat six-cylinder powerplant, lifted directly from the famed 911 RSR. Capable of generating 500 horsepower and 339 lb-ft. of torque, the engine in the 911 GT3 with Touring Package doesn't mess around. It sprints from 0-to-60 in 3.8 seconds and reaches a top track speed up 196 mph.
2) Adaptive spoiler
Similar to the 911 Carrera model, the 911 GT3 with Touring Package will have an adaptive rear spoiler. Despite looking like Porsche did away with GT3's rear spoiler, it actually boasts an auto-extension spoiler that contributes to its subtle but sleek design. It's also a key element which contributes to the outstanding efficiency and aerodynamics of the model.
3) Exquisite interior
The softer leather and Alcantara-inspired interior seats two, creating the feel of a classic sports car with a manual six-speed. But you'll find less Alacantara® in this latest imagining of the 911 GT3 with Touring Package, which is used in other GT3 models. That's neither good nor bad, but it's worth mentioning the 911 GT3 Touring will offer the timeless Porsche look with a few detailing updates. The steering wheel, shift lever, door panel armrests, center console lid, and interior door handles are all upholstered in smooth-finish leather.
4) Rigid chassis
The rear chassis of the 911 GT3 with Touring Package is a testament to Porsche's racing heritage. It boasts superior handling characteristics, thanks predominately to the standard rear-axle steering. Depending on the speed, it steers in either the same or opposite direction as the front wheels, which greatly improves the vehicle's stability. You'll appreciate it when you go into corners fast or when you want to feel secure on the straightaways.
5) Porsche Track Precision App
In addition to Porsche Communication Management (PCM), including a navigation system with real-time traffic updates, every 911 GT3 with Touring Package model comes standard with the Connect Plus module and the Porsche Track Precision App. The module extends beyond the in-car phone accessibility, enabling drivers to display, record, and analyze detailed driving data on their smartphone. Since 911 GT3 with Touring Package owners we know enjoy taking their ride to the track, we know you'll utilize this app and the information it provides.
