Porsche Unveils 911 GT3 S/C: A Two-Seater Convertible With an Automatic Roof
Porsche expands the 911 lineup with the GT3 S/C, a two‑seat convertible that features a fully automated fabric roof (12 seconds to open/close up to 31 mph) and a wind deflector, adopting a front double‑wishbone suspension and CFRP components to closely mirror the GT3 coupe. Powered by a 4.0L naturally aspirated flat‑six producing 502 hp, it reaches 0–60 mph in 3.7 seconds and 194 mph top speed, with only a manual transmission. Weighing about 3,322 lb, it uses weight‑saving materials like magnesium wheels and optional CFRP seats; US pricing starts at $275,350 and it arrives this fall. Unlike the Speedster, it’s not a limited‑run model and signals Porsche’s push to broaden the 911 lineup while sales trend upward.
