2022 Porsche 911 GT3, manual for sale

Overview about this 2022 Porsche 911 GT3, manual for sale

This is the 992 GT3 with the six-speed manual gearbox, which Porsche offered at no cost alongside the seven-speed PDK and which fewer buyers took. The manual is 17 kg lighter than the PDK, and on a car whose entire specification is written around weight and response that is the point of choosing it.

The engine is the 4.0-litre naturally aspirated flat six, 510 PS at 8,400 rpm and 450 Nm, revving to 9,000 rpm. This car's own record quotes 502 HP, the same output in imperial horsepower. Porsche quotes 311 km/h for the manual car. The 992 GT3 was the generation that brought double-wishbone front suspension to a road 911, taken from the 911 RSR racing car, together with the swan-neck rear wing that hangs the aerofoil from above so the airflow across its underside stays attached.

This example is a 2022 car with 2,450 km, which is delivery mileage plus a little and unusual on a GT3 of this age. It is finished in white over a black interior, European specification, meaning it was delivered new in Europe rather than to the Gulf: the equipment content, the instrument units and the service history follow that market.

On a GT3 the options that matter are few and expensive, and this car's record states the essentials rather than a long list: the manual gearbox itself, which is the defining choice, and the white paint over black. Buyers at this level will want to confirm with the seller whether the car carries the Clubsport package with its bolt-in roll cage, the front axle lift system that makes the car usable on ordinary roads, and the ceramic brakes, since those three change both the price and the use of the car.

Two details of the 992 GT3 are worth knowing before comparing examples. Its front axle carries a lift system on many cars but not all, and without it the front splitter meets most kerbs; and the rear wing is fixed rather than deployable, so the car looks the same standing still as it does at speed. The interior is the standard GT3 arrangement with fixed-back bucket seats available as an option against the adaptive sports seats.

The 992 GT3 was built from 2021 to 2024 and its German base price at launch in May 2021 was 167,518 euros, raised afterwards to 170,969 euros. The car is offered here at 735,000 dirhams, quoted in dirhams.

The manual is worth one more sentence because it is the whole argument of this particular car. On a GT3 the PDK is faster in every measurable way, and Porsche says so; the manual exists because the driver does the work of matching engine speed to road speed himself, which is what a large part of the GT3 audience is buying. A manual car with 2,450 km is therefore not simply a low-mileage GT3, it is a low-mileage example of the version that will be harder to find in five years.
