Porsche 911 GT3 roars into Singapore
02 Oct 2025|134 views
The new Porsche 911 GT3 is now in Singapore, and for the first time, the model is available in two variants. For keener drivers, a track-focused version, and a more comfortable one meant for everyday use with the Touring package.
Both GT3 versions, however, share many similarities. These include a sharper-looking front end with redesigned Matrix LED head lights (also available with the optional white accent ring), a new spoiler lip, redesigned rear diffuser and air outlets, and a new rear wing with angled sideplates for the first time.
In keeping with the GT3 performance-oriented character, Porsche engineers have utilised weight-saving measures that include the new aluminium wheels that reduce unsprung weight by more than 1.5kg compared to the outgoing model. Opt for the magnesium wheels that come with either the Weissach or Leichtbau (lightweight) package and another nine kilograms will be shaved off.
The weight-reduction exercise can continue inside if clients specify the optional bucket seats with seat shells made from carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP). Part of the headrest padding can be removed for track days to prevent the helmet from hitting the headrest. Another model first is the folding backrest, which enables drivers to access the optional rear seats, which are offered for the first time with the Touring package.
Speaking of packages, this is also the first time that the 911 GT3 can be ordered with the Weissach package. When optioned, the CFRP is used for components such as the roof, rear wing sideplates, front airblades, and anti-roll bar. For the 911 GT3 with rear wing and lightweight bucket seats, the Clubsport package is available at no extra cost. This adds a bolted steel roll cage in the rear with a six-point harness for the driver and a hand-held fire extinguisher.
Meanwhile, customers of the 911 GT3 with Touring package can option the Leichtbau package. The goodies here include magnesium forged wheels, carbon fibre components, and lightweight door panels. Models with the six-speed GT sports gearbox will be fitted with the shortened gearshift lever from the 911 S/T as well.
The heart of the 911 GT3 continues to be its naturally aspirated 4.0-litre flat-six engine. Despite ever-tightening emissions, Porsche has managed to maintain the motor's 9,000rpm redline through the use of particulate filters and four catalytic converters. Other improvements include cylinder heads and flow-optimised individual throttle valves, along with optimised oil coolers.
The engine puts out 503bhp and 450Nm of torque, and when equipped with the seven-speed PDK (dual-clutch) transmission, propels the car from zero to 100km/h in 3.4 seconds. The century sprint takes 3.9 seconds with the six-speed GT sports manual gearbox.
To further boost the 911 GT3's track capabilities, Porsche honed the car's aerodynamics and focussed on improving stability under braking. Specifically, engineers ensured that the balance between the front and rear during the shift from high-downforce to low-downforce would be maintained. They lowered the front ball joint on the front lower trailing arm to lessen 'diving' under braking - just like in the 911 GT3 RS.
Debuting alongside the 911 GT3 is the 911 Cup - the latest model of the one-make race car used in the Porsche Carrera Cup Asia one-make racing series. It is based on the 992.2 generation 911 and comes with numerous enhancements. The front end, for instance, now has integrated louvre vents to increase front axle downforce while facilitating airflow through the wheel arches.
Underneath are turning vanes behind the front wheel arches that increase the responsiveness of the front axle at high speeds, while the redesigned rear end features a larger swan-neck wing with new connections to the wing supports for easier adjustments.
Like the 911 GT3, a naturally aspirated 4.0-litre flat-six powers the 911 Cup. With additional components such as camshafts with extended valve opening times and flow-optimised throttle valves, it kicks out 512bhp. Three different exhaust systems - to suit varying noise regulations in different racing series - are available for customers.
The latest 911 Cup promises even greater stopping power, too. There are now 380mm brake rotors on the front axle with wider brake pads, along with new air cooling ducts. Racing ABS systems are another new addition, alongside a larger brake fluid reservoir for long-distance races. The race car has also been equipped with adjusted steering stops that offer a tighter turning radius.
The new 911 GT3 and GT3 with Touring Package start from $907,088 before COE and options. Porsche Singapore expects the first deliveries to commence by end-2025.
