No, the company is not going out of business as the title of this article might suggest, but we are in mourning nonetheless. It is the end of an era and we must say farewell to the last of a breed of sportscars, namely the Porsche 911 GT3 997. Following in the footsteps of Ferrari, McLaren and Lamborghini, Porsche has announced that the next GT3 will switch it's manual gearbox for an automatic transmission. Expect the new Porsche 911 GT3 to hit North American dealerships late this year, priced at a little over $130,000 US. At this year's Geneva Motor show, the new 911 GT3 991 was unveiled, leaving Porsche (and other super car) fans in shock. The company announced that starting in November 2013, the much loved GT3 will be sold with a paddle shifter automatic instead of manual gearbox.

The Porsche 911 is expected to be replaced by the end of the year but the German manufacturer continues to offer some special editions of its 911. After the 911 Carrera GTS which was revealed at the 2010 Paris Motor Show, it lacked a 4 wheel drive version and thus was born the Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS, available in coupe and convertible.

Porsche has announced record sales in both Canada and the United States for 2022. The Macan and Cayenne SUVs led the way for the German brand, both in North American and around the world.
