The upper end of the Porsche 911 lineup is getting an update — and a track-focused Weissach package.
The 2025 Porsche 911 GT3 starts at $224,495 with shipping and arrives at dealerships next summer.
A naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six making 502 hp propels the coupe from 0 to 60 mph in as little as 3.2 seconds. The street-legal GT3 has a top track speed of 195 mph.
Porsche modified the teardrop-shaped trailing arms on the double-wishbone front axle to boost downforce at high speeds and improve brake cooling. The front ball joint of the lower trailing arm sits lower on the front axle to create an anti-dive effect that reduces pitch under braking.
The freshening gives the GT3 a sharpened design and better aerodynamics.
Porsche said the redesigned front diffuser, spoiler lip and modified underbody air guides increase downforce and optimize airflow. The automaker integrated the daytime running lights into the headlight module to create room for larger air intakes and deliver a cleaner look.
At the rear, the diffuser, air inlets, wing side plates and decklid are redesigned.
The GT3 with Touring Package, available at launch, offers optional rear seats and ditches the fixed wing. An active rear spoiler and the underbody air guides provide aerodynamic balance.
For the first time on the GT3, Porsche will offer a Weissach package featuring carbon fiber-reinforced plastic rear wing side plates, door mirror upper shells and front air blades.

Cryptocurrencies, or digital assets, have gone through a lot of turmoil so far in 2022. Since their high-water mark in late 2021, major assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum have seen dramatic pullbacks in prices. These pullbacks created a chain reaction in other areas of the digital asset market, which ultimately led to the bankruptcy of several crypto platforms - and a crash that wiped out the value of a few large cryptocurrencies.
Many coins have seen massive price drops since their all-time highs and have not recovered. As an investor, how should you approach crypto now?
Crypto basics & recent tumbles
First, a brief synopsis of crypto and recent major events:
The blockchain technology used to trade cryptocurrencies has been hailed as a game-changer for the future of currency. Users can "confirm transactions without a need for a central clearing authority," which democratizes access to the economy, especially for those who have historically not had access to financial institutions. Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum and other coins or tokens are simply an alternative form of payment known as digital currencies. While potential drives crypto's allure, so does speculation. And even though crypto has been lauded as "inflation-proof," its recent tumbles affect their market value rapidly.
