1. window to see your VIN, I think
2. Amp is under there, so it is slotted to let heat out
3. I think the gas tank is under there, so maybe fuel pump under the plastic part.
4. i think brake fluid (4 and 5 maybe reversed in my answers)
5. i think power steering fluid (you have to remove the panel to get to the reservoir)
6. windshield wiper fluid

Your multiple posts regarding GT2 curiosities have becoming more and more painful to read. You seem very clueless for someone who's looking to buy a rare 04-05 GT2. No PUN intended but I'm worry for you. I suggest you get off the computer and go drive a GT2 or at least see one in person.

I could be wrong, but thought the vin was stamped on the metal under the window. If not, try to pull the cover off and see whats under there. I know that the carbon air filter is under there, since I just replaced mine.

As I remember your are a GT2 owner, the sad thing is your are not helping at all. Anyway, I am doing the research and I am going buy a GT2 next year. I have seen a GT2 in person, real nice, but the dealers/owners and I won't test it unless the car is my friend or I am going to buy it right now. What's wrong for doing research and being well prepare for my next car?

I think what he means is, if these are the questions you are asking, the GT2 may not be the car for you.


What are you currently in? What is it that makes you want a GT2?

Like I said no pun intended. I would even offer you my car for a test drive. There's nothing wrong about doing research on a car. But the fact that you didn't even bother using the simple search enigne resulted in all these multiple posts of yours that are becoming painful to read. Do a search and post your questions more intelligently.
FYI, this car is well known as "a widow maker" and for someone appear to have no knowledge about Porsche in general makes me worry as to how he's going to handle a car like the GT2 without killing himself.

w/ that criteria, I don't think the GT2 is for you. What do you currently own? What else have you driven. Do you have any track experience etc? Have you looked into other RWD, TURBO, Tuneable cars?


Not to sound mean, but from all your posts and the intellect of your discussion it almost seems like you are a kid who just has a dream of owning a GT2 one day. Not that there is anything wrong w/ that.
