Looking mostly similar to the GT3 minus the rear spoiler and the wide wheels, the car will not be marketed as a track record breaker. Instead, it has been created to make 911 purists and fans happy by fitting the 911 R with a six-speed manual transmission as its only transmission choice. Power could come from either the GT3 or GT3 RS's engine.

While it's clear tiny houses aren't going to work out here, the concept of 'tiny living' is; not just physically but also mentally. Anyone who has lived enough years lo
