The prototype can be recognized by distinctive elements such as twin exhaust tips mounted in the center of the rear, center-locked wheels and huge carbon-ceramic brake rotors.

The previous GT3 was powered by a 4.0-liter six with 500 hp and 339 lb-ft of torque, revving briskly to 9,000 rpm.

We know that the GT3 will be powered by a naturally injected engine, though there are rumors that Porsche may switch to turbocharging to boost the track-focused 911's performance. Indeed, it will be the new 4.0-liter six that debuted on the 911 Speedster in 2019, with a maximum output of 502 hp.

In addition, a new GT3 Cup racing variant and a hardcore GT3 RS are on the horizon.

The GT3 should be available in the coming months, and in showrooms late this year or early next year.
