Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Anyone have a beginner overview of the different types within anyone generation and what the perks/benefits are Base - entry level but still great S - more bhp, additional specs e.t.c GTS - more bhp, better value retention?, more desirable as less common? ?? I have also seen the T- model, but as I see thats just basically a base/entry for some of the newer 911 generations or?

POST 2Original post

Base, T, S, GTS is the hierarchy: Base T - adds chassis upgrades from the S and some T-specific styling upgrades but no more power S - adds more power plus extra options for styling/chassis GTS - adds even more power, GTS branding, some unique elements e.g. Race-Tex, centrelocks etc.

POST 4Original post

Turbo and Turbo S are higher up, but you also have the GT cars so it kind of splits at GTS into the Motorsport cars and the Turbos: Turbo - Turbo S GT3/Speedster - GT3RS - GT2RS

POST 5Original post

Time was when you had the choice of: T - base model, modest power E - bit more power and equipment S - even more power Each in Coupe or Targa with a handful of optional extras RS - limited production for 9 months to homologate for Group 4/5 racing Now, the various models, destinations, body shells, options, limited editions…..make the number of permutations mind-blowing. Probably all at the behest of ‘marketing’. Personally, I still prefer simplicity - less is more.
