Porsche 991 (992) GT3 with a special set of Strasse Wheels rims

At the beginning of 2021, Porsche presented a new car from the 992 series, the Porsche 911 (992) GT3. It is an extraordinary and powerful car that its owners often try to make better and unique with minor or major modifications. Such is the case with this model.

The owner of this Porsche 911 GT3 decorated the car with Shark Blue color, which was first introduced with the last generation of this model, but also made a minor change at first glance. Namely, he entrusted the car to Strasse Wheels, who equipped it with a special set of 20- and 21-inch SV10 Deep Concave FS rims with Gloss Brushed Clear centers, High Polished & Gloss Clear lips, Gloss Brushed Clear barrels and 50/50 hardware. Behind the beautiful rims hides a new braking system with 408 mm discs and yellow calipers.

The car’s powertrain has not been changed, so the 911 GT3 is still powered by the same 4.0-liter naturally-aspirated flat-six engine with 510 hp (375 kW) at 8,400 rpm and 347 lb-ft (470 Nm) of torque at 6,250 rpm. It reaches 60 mph in 3.4 seconds with a top speed of 197 mph (318 kph). Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via manual or automatic seven-speed transmission (PDK).

Also, spy photos of a car that points to a possible new generation 911 GT3 model were recently published. This news will delight all enthusiasts of the German brand and especially the GT3 model. The car is currently being tested on the tracks in Spain, and for now, Porsche has not made any statement about this.
