2018 Porsche GT2 Spied – 991 – Video Photo Gallery
At the front of this particular mule we can see new intakes larger than the units on the GT3 RS. And at the rear are hidden vents at either side of the bumper, which typically indicate a turbocharged engine. These aren’t found on the GT3 RS.
Another key difference is the position of the exhaust tips. On the mule there is an exhaust tip at each side of the car whereas on the GT3 RS they sit at the center.
GT2s typically feature the same engine as the 911 Turbo but with even more power. With the latest Turbo S delivering as much as 580 horsepower from its twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter flat-6, expect the GT2 to have around 620 hp. Since we’re already so late in the 991’s life cycle, Porsche could even skip the GT2 and go straight to a GT2 RS, meaning we could be looking at hp in the 660 vicinity. Recall, the previous GT2 RS already came with 620 hp.
All of this should be directed to the rear wheels only, most likely via a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The four-wheel-steering system used on high-end 911 models should also feature.
