2008 Porsche 911 997 GT2

The fabled street-legal ‘Widowmaker’, the Porsche 911 GT2 has always been a legend in its own right that no 911 enthusiast is complete without having experienced.

With the launch of the first generation in 1995 now worth well in excess of 7 figures, the GT2 has earned a reputation for being tough to master but insatiably rewarding right from the beginning due to its blistering performance and demanding, some would say driver centric driving experience.

With the introduction of the 997-generation GT2 in 2007, Porsche offered its customers a staggering 530 hp from the famous Metzger twin-turbo 3.6-liter flat six-cylinder engine, which made it the most powerful road-legal 911 ever produced at the time.

A raw, pure and incredibly exciting car that only came with rear-wheel drive, a manual gearbox and limited driver-aids, the 997 GT2 sprints from 0–100 km/h in just 3.7 seconds and reaches a top speed of 329 km/h.

Producing 50 hp more than the 997-generation 911 Turbo thanks to its bespoke expansion-type intake manifold and titanium exhaust, the GT2 was a literal supercar.

For those customers who wanted more, the ultra-desirable Clubsport package (M003) was made available, featuring a number of track-oriented optional extras, which included carbon fiber sports seats trimmed in Alcantara, racing harnesses and a roll cage.

Offered here is perhaps the best of its limited kind in the country, a totally original Australian Delivered 997 GT2. Showing as new condition throughout, this rare car is one of less than 30 that landed here.

Ordered in sporting Arctic Silver over Black leather and Alcantara trim, this special machine is also fitted with the famous world first FIA approved adjustable Carbon Fibre bucket seats and Porsche Factory Tequipment Roll Bar in- exposed stainless-steel.

Travelled just under 25,000 kilometres, accompanying this car are all correct Porsche manuals bound within the leather wallet and both original Porsche keys.

Completing the service history is a recently completed service by experts along with new tires on all four corners and a highly sensitive wheel-alignment.

As a solely driver focused edition 997, considered by many to be the best modern 911 money can buy, this GT2 delivers a spine-tingling drive that can only be conceived by one German automaker.
