weatherman1940 is infamous around these parts

Inform me...please!

I am not a P-car person and know very little, except I love the CGT. Basically, I would like to know:

1. what is the latest model P car out?
2. which is highest in the pecking order...GT2 or GT3?
3. I've seen a few CGTs advertised for low to mid 300k...with less than 1,500 miles on the clock. For real or wishful thinking?

Any info will be appreciated. I enjoy this site, but am basically lost between the different models. Now, lambos and vipers I know about...

Thanks...

Any 997 model

I wouldnt really say one is higher then the other (no 997 GT2 yet)
3. I've seen a few CGTs advertised for low to mid 300k...with less than 1,500 miles on the clock. For real or wishful thinking? wishful thinking

Traditionally the GT2 is the top 911 model as far as pricing and performance goes, but as miniD mentioned, the 997 variant has yet to be revealed officially.

Mike,
Come on man, there must be a million articles about Porsches. I'm sure you can answer any question you have with a little research.

CGT, GT2, Turbo (AKA "TT), or GT3. Those are the ones you are looking for. That is also the order that they fall in IRT cost.

As far as how fast they are, the pecking order in stock configuration is the same as above. When modified, it's a whole different ball game. The TT's are currently the fastest street Porsches on the planet.
