Look, let’s be honest. Every other Porsche 911 on the road these days looks like it escaped from a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon’s office. All bloated and overdone. But this 2022 GT3 Touring? This, my friends, is a Porsche with a purpose. First off, the paint. Forget boring ol’ black or white. This example is dipped in a paint-to-sample Superior Red metallic (W10), a rare PTS color. Yeah, that’s right. Now, I haven’t seen it in person, but from the pictures, it sure does pop. It’s more burgundy wine than red. While most GT cars are adorned in a loud shade with the RS models even getting graphics, this wingless 911 appears to be a track weapon or canyon carver for the discerning gentleman.

Tasteful Options That Truly Make This GT3 Touring Worthwhile

As for the rest of the car, with around $40,000 in options, you know this wasn’t some base-model poser. We’re talking Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB) for hauling your butt down from stupid speeds, a front-axle lift system for those inevitable speed bumps you totally didn’t see coming, and even freakin’ rear-axle steering.

Inside, it’s a masterclass in purposeful luxury. Black leather with cloth inserts? Yes, please. Because when you’re carving corners at warp speed, the last thing you need is your backside glued to a sweaty leather throne. Contrasting stitching that makes you want to wear a racing suit every time you get in? Check. The heated seats are a nice touch though, gotta keep those cheeks warm on those chilly morning canyon runs.

Under the hood? A glorious 4.0-liter naturally-aspirated flat-six pumps out 502 horsepower. But the real hero here is the six-speed manual. None of that fancy paddle-shift nonsense. This is about the pure, unadulterated joy of wrestling gears and feeling the car become an extension of yourself.

This, barely-broken-in 2022 911 GT3 Touring should still have that new car smell. We’re talking a measly 1,100 miles on the clock, which for a car like this, is practically criminal. But hey, no judgment. Whatever the reason, their loss is your potential gain, and the current bid is sitting at $240,000 on Bring-a-Trailer.

I’m not going to pretend for a second that it is a small number, but it is a lot lower than the five-year average price of $274,932, for a GT3 Touring according to Classic.com. You have another Superior Red 911 GT3 Touring with similar miles, listed for over $300,000. So maybe, in that respect, you can justify the steep price, given that this example also has a lot of desirable options (listed below). Also, RENNBOW indicates that only a handful of cars actually exist in this color.

In the end, a car like the wingless 911 GT3 Touring is supposed to be driven hard, not sat in a garage. It is one of the purest forms of the 911s from the 992 generation, and unfortunately, the more money you’re going to pay, the less it’s probably going to be driven. So, if you’re a discerning enthusiast with a fat wallet and a need for speed, just do me a favor and use it some more, please.
