The Porsche 991 is the seventh generation of the Porsche 911 since its introduction in 1963. The sports car was built from 2011 to 2019. The 991 is the first Porsche to feature a composite aluminum-steel construction. The new bodyshell saved around 80 kilograms compared to the bodyshell of the predecessor, the 997. Overall, the Porsche 991 is around 40 kilograms lighter. The first prototypes or test vehicles of the 991 GT3 were spotted in early December 2011. Like the GT3 models of the 996 and 997 types, the 991 GT3, released in 2013, also featured a fixed rear wing on the engine cover as well as custom-made front and rear aprons. In 2017, the GT3 received a facelift (991.2). This included an increase in displacement from 3,800 cc to 3,996 cc, resulting in an increase in power of 25 hp. The maximum engine speed remained the same at 9,000 rpm. New front and rear aprons, a slightly offset rear spoiler with slimmer end plates, and a new Touring version were also available. Due to the success of the 911 R, the 991.2 GT3 was also available as a Touring version. This version dispensed with the distinctive rear wing. However, to restore aerodynamic balance, downforce on the front axle had to be reduced. It was only available with the six-speed manual transmission.
