One of just 233 examples produced in model year 2003, this Metallic Silver Porsche 911 GT2 has only been driven a mere 18,415 original miles. Weighing in at a trim 3,175 pounds—240 less than the Turbo brethren it was based on—weight savings were realized through the deletion of the all-wheel drive system and the rear seating area. An extra 50 HP was infused through the usage of larger twin turbochargers (in this case K24 units that flow 20% more air), larger intercoolers to further densify and cool the incoming air charge and a special low-restriction exhaust system, making for a total output of 456 HP.
However, the technical recipe for the GT2 cannot convey its raw-edged nature that requires the utmost of skill and concentration to exploit the limits of this exceedingly fast car. It is a rear-wheel drive sports car devoid of either mechanical intervention from all-wheel drive or electronic intervention from Porsche Stability Management. Therefore, it does not suffer fools gladly, but it does reward those who can harness this visceral machine capable of a 195 MPH top speed. Porsche did not offer a sunroof on the GT2 because its air turbulence negatively affected the car’s terminal velocity.
Suspension grip is provided by lowering the car roughly .75-inches, or 20mm, and fitting large contact-patch 18-inch wheels and tires. Equipped with the standard Porsche carbon-ceramic brakes with multi-piston calipers affectionately referred to in Porsche parlance as “Big-Yellows,” the stopping capability is as remarkable as its acceleration capability. This gorgeous 2002 Porsche 911 GT2 is also equipped with sport seats, air conditioning, force-sensitive power rack-and-pinion steering, a black full leather interior and the carbon fiber interior package. It’s an incredibly fast package that is hard to top.
