Right owned one of these brutes as you know wasn't exactly practical but this is cheap IMO
Anyone know anything about this high miler?
Is it a Clubsport, any stories associated with it?
Anybody viewed it?

Ed those buckets make all the difference trust me. I know u had comfort b4 but you'll love those.
Only the mileage makes it that cheap i recon .
An inspection to make sure all in order with things like the ceramics maybe.
U never did get the gt2 out of your system did you!
Still consider the gt3 thou. When does the 3.2 go? And how did u sell it in the end ?

Lots of stories on GT2's though have to tread carefully someone will no doubt drop me a line who knows the car, i'd have had wini's but that's gone.
GT2's are great I was just bloody scared of them to be honest but the looks are to die for IMO and the rarity. Viewing a GT3 next week.

The 3.2 is going to a guy I sold a 993 C4S to a few years ago & still owns its amongst others a well known collector, & would you believe he's had more than me!!!!!!!!!!

Must be properly hooked then.
Good luck with the search. Rarity is the name of the game.
I still fancy a 964 RS to run with the 996.

Why are you selling the 3.2 Ed. The poor thing hasn't even had the pleasure of you driving it !

No particular reason got approached by 2 people who asked me if I was ever selling to get in touch.
Then somebody I know emailed me who had a 993 from me "a collector" and we did a deal yesterday.
Didn't particularly want to sell but spotted a GT3 but still got the GT2 thing going also!

I have and put a deposit down. Car is a club sport and has very good service history, needs a few niggles sorted but the guys at SF are top class, to be honest the car looked quite ordinary amongst their other stock eek

What you really need is a nice m3 CSL, hang on that's what I am just about to advertise biggrin

By jeez these GT2's are quick though!

I've heard they often go "pop" at 94,000 miles smile Looks a great car and a CS too.

That's true, apparently they need at least £10k spending on them also, or is that GT3's wink

Really excited and to be honest, yes it's got some mileage but it was at a price that made it very attractive and let's be honest affordable. Well relatively... Anyone need a kidney?

My old GT2 had 79k on it & went very well

crimp, man that 3.2 did not last long. is this your third GT3. What are you going for and why the GT3 surely same practicalities as the GT2. I am holding back on the man maths about adding a GT2 to my garage. Is a GT2 that much difference to a GT3 in terms of clearance. do not know if I want to start this conversation as I feel it will have one ending. on bucket seats adore mine in my GT3 comfy as and hold perfectly. hang on are you after the GT3 CS on 911v?

I know may need some help at some point.
Loved the 3.2 and in ideal world i'd have kept it as its one of the best around and bought something accompany it...................

Still have a thing for the GT pork, have to say adore the aesthetics of the GT2 though so much presence

Just shout.

I agree on the GT2 but I guarantee you the NA engine of the GT3 is so much easier to enjoy than the Turbo lump and that noise of the GT3, its more you I think.
