2025 Porsche 911 GT3 Touring (992.2) Configurator: 3 Options That Push It Over $300k

Three options that push the price of the 992.2 GT3 Touring to over $300,000

We recently configured a $300,000+ Porsche 992.2 GT3 by ticking off the three most expensive options from the Porsche configurator. While the options list is slightly different for the GT3 Touring, I didn’t have to play around a lot to spec a $300,000+ Porsche 911 GT3 Touring.

1. Paint to Sample Plus: $38,660

While not exclusive to the GT3 Touring, Porsche’s Paint to Sample Plus is the most expensive option you can tick off the configurator, but not by much. The option is available through Porsche Exclusive Manifaktur, this option allows you to choose virtually any color from an endless palette, allowing you to create your unique color (until someone else decides to spec it). It already adds greatly upon the "regular” Paint to Sample option, which would set you back "just” $16,230 and allow you to choose colors from older generations that have been discontinued. While some could argue that the Paint to Sample Plus option would increase your 911’s collectability, charging $38,660 for a paint is downright insane.

2. "Leichtbau" Lightweight Package: $36,010

The second-most expensive option for the Porsche 992.2 GT3 Touring is the Lightweight Package, but that’s before you tick a few more obligatory options that accompany it. Paying a whole car’s worth of extra carbon fiber may seem excessive. The Lightweight Package sheds 48 pounds off the 992.2 GT3 Touring’s weight, resulting in a curb weight of 3,191 pounds.

By choosing this option from the Porsche configurator, your 992.2 GT3 Touring benefits from an extensive carbon fiber treatment, including the exterior, interior, and chassis. Here’s what the Lightweight Package gets you:

• Carbon-fiber roof finished in the exterior color

• Side-window rim, exhaust tips, and Porsche logo finished in black (only if you choose the Lightweight Package in black, which costs the same)

• Folding lightweight bucket seats

• GT-specific, shorter gear shifter (for the six-speed manual)

• Lightweight door panels with satin carbon-fiber door handles and storage net

• Badge with "Leichtbau" Package logo in front of the gear shifter/ drive selector

• Carbon-fiber interior inlays

• Carbon-fiber rear anti-roll bar

• Carbon-fiber coupling rods and underbody panel on the rear axle

• Staggered set of Lightweight magnesium GT3 wheels – 20-inch front/ 21-inch rear

But that’s not all. Choosing the Lightweight Package opens up a few more customization options, each at an extra cost. By default, you get the Leather Interior in Black with Fabric Seat Centers, for an additional $4,730 or a Leather Interior in Black with Fabric Seat Centers and GT Silver stitching for $6,220. The base price for the Lightweight Package may be less than the Paint to Sample Plus option, but in reality, this option would cost you $40,740 or $42,230, depending on whether you choose the contrasting stitching or not.

3. Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB) with Calipers in High Gloss Black: $10,680

This one is oddly specific, but there are two versions of Porsche’s ceramic composite brakes. They do the same thing for the GT3 Touring’s performance but don’t cost the same. Typically, Porsche’s way of telling you one of its cars has ceramic brakes is the yellow brake calipers. If you go for that option, the PCCB option will set you back $9,780. But if you want your carbon-composite brakes to feature calipers finished in High Gloss Black, it would set you back $900 extra. Perhaps, this is Porsche taxing you more for the more under-the-radar option?

Regardless, the brakes offer mind-bending performance, thanks to fixed, aluminum calipers with six pistons at the front and four pistons at the rear. They are clamping down on 410mm front and 390mm rear ventilated and perforated rotors. The PCCB option is best appreciated on the track or on a lengthy, spirited drive across a canyon or a mountain pass.

992.2 GT3 Touring Price

Porsche has one of the most comprehensive configurators where even the options have options. I specifically chose the three most expensive variants of the three most expensive options. These three options, alone, are worth $$91,570 which is just over two grand more than a gas-powered Macan GTS. It results in a build price of $316,065 for this GT3 Touring. For some context, this is higher than, the limited-run 911 S/T, which carries a base MSRP of $290,000 and is more collectible in the long run.

Unfortunately, the high figure that we see in the configurator doesn’t account for the ugly dealer markups, which will no doubt be in effect. A fully loaded 992.2 GT3 can easily reach $400,000 or more. It is a hefty amount, but given that the next-generation Porsche 911 GT3 might not cover strict emissions regulations without turbo or hybrid power, the Porsche fanatics will surely flock to the nearest dealership, in an attempt to snap this, supposed, last normally-aspirated GT3.
