EVO article of 997.2 GT3!
New EVO mag article of the 997.2 GT3, I know there have been many posts of this, but this is the best I have come across, in terms of pictures and information.

Nope, PCCB's are always optional on GT3's (standard only on GT2's and CGT's). Stock brakes are now huge 2-piece iron rotors (380mm front, 350mm rear - same sizes as PCCB).

Looks like thank goodness NO sunroof (well maybe only for Europe)
The wing looks like a "baby RS wing".
Looks like the put protective screens in the front bumpers now.
Seems like those are the GT2 seats (maybe optional).
I like the rear bumper.
Is there direct injection?
Is compression still 12:1?
