GT2 reviews

I'm half tempted to push the boat out to the gt2.

Just looking for owners / test pilots opinions. Also, would you consider the 2 a TT'd GT3 or a TT with GT3 setup. Not many around here to see, yet alone test drive.

As mentioned in an earlier thread, my cars are mainly toys but are not tracked. Need to be usuable though I.e. Down to shops for milk. Out for food. Journey to friends. But an enjoyable exhilarating event.

Thanks again

I love my 2008 997 GT2. Handling, turning, braking are all outstanding, as is build quality, as you'd expect. Then, there's the motor... I've got the EVOMS 600hp upgrade. I pulls incredibly hard everywhere, spinning the rears at 70-80mph, when not even trying, even with PASM on. On a track, it gobbles up GT3's and runs with Cup cars. The amazing thing is how civilized it is. You can do the social stuff with it, but still spank anything that gets in your way. The only improvement I'd like to make is to reduce the road noise from the rear tires - easily solved with some sound-proofing (maybe 15 lbs. worth). Bottom line - the car is violent, point and shoot, like a motocross bike on steroids, which is why I bought it.

I have owned turbos, GT2 and GT2RS. Have driven GT3 a bunch. GT3 has the best sound but I would much rather have a GT 2. No excuse car and you will enjoy it.
