Porsche has introduced the 911 GT3 S/C, a new GT3 variant with a fully automated fabric roof, while 911 deliveries reached a record 51,583 in 2025 and rose 22% through March to 13,889 vehicles.
The GT3 S/C's automated soft top lowers or raises in about 12 seconds at speeds up to 31 mph; the wind deflector deploys in two seconds, and the convertible is about 66 pounds heavier than the Speedster, with U.S. weight at 3,322 pounds and European weight at 1,497 kilograms.
Porsche fitted the GT3 S/C with a first‑for‑a‑911 convertible double‑wishbone front suspension and chassis tuning echoing the 911 GT3 coupe, and used carbon‑fiber‑reinforced plastic and magnesium in body panels and underbody parts.
The two‑seat GT3 S/C drops the rear seats, offers optional CFRP bucket seats, and keeps a naturally aspirated 4.0‑liter flat‑six producing 502 hp and 331 lb‑ft (450 Nm), revving to 9,000 rpm and reaching 0–60 mph in 3.7 seconds (0–62 mph in 3.9 seconds).
