After a very long wait, the 992 S/T has finally arrived! So, what do we know? Well, 1,963 units will be produced, its offers a naturally aspirated 4.0-Liter flat six that produces 518 horsepower, and it will only be offered with a six-speed manual transmission. Notably, the S/T has also been fitted with a single-mass flywheel, the first production car since the 911 R from the 991 generation. Most impressive to me by far however is the curb weight, that being only 3,056 pounds. That makes it 70 pounds lighter than the GT3 Touring, and to me that is absolutely mind blowing. Porsche claims a 3.5 second 0-60 sprint and a 186 mph top speed, but that really isn’t the main focus of this car. Porsche says this model is all about going fast in corners, rather than in a straight line. As far as the builds go we really don’t know much right now, other than a new color will be introduced called Shore Blue Metallic, which will be included as a part of the Heritage Design Package offered on the S/T. The S/T does have a steep base MSRP of $290,000, and it is expected to make its first public debut at Rennsport Reunion in late September/early October. I cannot wait to see some of the upcoming specifications. #PTSShades #SuperTouring #ST #911ST
