Going to be a minority of one here but I much prefer the cleaner lines of a standard narrow body 993, for me the more you bolt on the less it appeals.

I've got my coat.

Love the GT2 in any guise its the super car all others makers strive to be.
It will take you round a track at near on 200mph (if your mad enough) then drive you home and you can do the weekly shop in it, oh and they look the feckin bollax too.
I'd have this in Silver though thanks parked up and maybe mothballed and use my regular 996 GT2 for everyday which although isn't worth anywhere near as much its still quicker.

Porsche perfection.

I find cars like this so much more appealing than modern exotica such as the 458 or MP4-12C. The way I see it, I would love a 458 or similar for a few weeks or a few track days because they are technically brilliant and It would be an incredible experience.
BUT I can't see myself getting attached to one. I think I would get bored quickly and want to swap when the next even faster car came along.
Which is why as a car to get my pulse going, to own and to open the garage door to every morning, it would have to be something like this. Everything would be an occasion in it and it would be my pride and joy.

Sometimes a fun read as Harris's stuff usually is BUT bit of a 'premium ad spot' or 'advertorial' for the sellers too isn't it. Wonder how the cars/ads are picked...............

The 90's really were a highlight for supercars and homologation specials.

Adore the 993 GT2 and this one especially is epic.

Hopefully a talented enthusiast will buy it and track it regularly to it's capabilities rather than leave it rotting away in a garage.

Just absolutely brutal, yes your common narrow body 911's are very svelt but this looks like it would rip your head of and sh*t down your neck. Riveted wide arches are brilliant, anyone who says otherwise is just plain wrong. smile

My favourite 911 of all time and my second favourite Porsche of all time (first honours still go to the Carrera GT)

At least £250K overpriced IMO

I know I'm in the minority here though, each to their own...

Oaft. Just wonderful.

Given the choice, I'd have 'mine' in a darker hue. Like, black.

It's a rarefied beast, for sure. Not sure I'd shell out 1/4 mill.

Just clicked on the Hexagon advert and those high res pics make the car look absolutely stunning. The front end shot is worthy of pic of the week.

I love the audacity of rivet-on wheelarches; gives it a real motorsport-esque edge.

Brilliant.
