I was just curious if there were any places to look for a 993 GT2. I heard that this car was one of the most visceral porsches ever built, but not much more than that. Any info? Were they legal in america?

 

They werent legal in the U.S. like the GT3, there were few produced in Europe, strong value, I guess Santa never brought you a PORSCHE book.

 

I believe Jon at Ziel Motorsports in Downey CA has one... AKA JIC Racing they make the CROSS Suspension.

 

I know of a white one in NY, its new with 0 miles and its 1:43 scale sitting on top of my stereo speaker next to a G500.

 

I saw one last year. It was dark red, the color that the 996s don´t have, had beautiful spoked rims and a black interior. The car looked absolutely amazing! And yes, I do live in Europe.

Pistol,

Are you looking at buying one?

 

Here you go! 190K

Perhaps looking to buy one. I am not sure since there will be such a problem bringing these things to America-I heard that they were illegal in america?

On the other hand, I hate the new Turbos and GT2. I just think they are
1) too much of a car for me
2) too wide
3) too much money needed to make it the hottest one
4) i am beginning to like older cars for their distinguishing looks and the type of reputaiton that comes with a classic car-respect and knowledge that you are a connosieur of these cars- as long as you respect the car and treat it like you treat your lady.

 

pistol: You could be the "sultan of swing" with that red one at sloans!!! :-)

 

You're going to spend a lot of $$$$$ on a 993 GT2. If you're thinking about modifying it to be the "hottest one", you're going to spend even more. Look at the one in the link...it's 190K and a 1995. For the money, you're much better off getting a 930 or 993TT and going nuts.

"Hate" is such a strong word! Are you sure about that? Reasons 1, 2 and 3 dont justify "hate" IMHO.

 

sorry,not hate, but dislike

 

Thats more like it, for your reasons hate didnt make much sense.
