Looks like the GT3 Gen 2 is just around the corner. Loads of new info as of this morning. I reckon that it will be announced at the Paris Show. Wonder if the GT2 will be as well, that would really flummox the flippers. Could be an excellent marketing tool by Porsche!! All I hope is that who ever gets to buy either of these cars will be the ones that will use them as intended not parked up in storage. Where OPC's miss out is that whilst selling the flippers another car they do not get any part exchanges to sell. So it's a short term profit not a continued one.

Lovely .... reminds me of my red GT2 Clubsport that unfortunately is in Porsche heaven
I don't mean to be nosey...... but, is that the 58 reg 997 with lovely carbon and red stitched interior sold by Bristol? Sorry to hear it's a goner and hope it wasn't a serious incident. APOLO1 said:

Does anyone have accurate figures for the 997 2RS, I believe it's around 20 cars? The standard 997 GT2 was only around 60 units.
I'd guess this would be a limited run wouldn't it?
Be great to see what they come up with, will be a beast.
I Seem to recall, 45 997GT2s, UK and 18 997GT2RS.....I'd guess this would be a limited run wouldn't it?

If this is a different car (UK RHD) it would be great to know more about it, but I'd accept a "mind your own business" response too

Could I ask where have you seen the new info ? I haven't come across anything new for a couple of weeks now ? 996GT2 said:

I would rather buy a car that I actually want from a manufacturer that is willing to take my order.
I have no doubt the GT2 will be an amazing car, but as above I would rather buy a car that I can get my hands on and drive.So that is what I did ... 991.1 Turbo S - sent it to Litchfield for mid-600s hp + HRE wheels and Cup2 tyres.
Am now about to depart for my fourth Euro trip in 18mths and not going to spend anytime thinking about a GT2 whilst flying around the mountain passes.
No criticism to those who want one, but I'm not playing that game with Porsche. I've bought something that is now very fast and I'm enjoying driving it.

You're not really playing any "game" with Porsche, you are their b
h, dancing to their tune, you are seduced and enticed by the halo models but because you are not a "worthy" customer you end up buying a more mainstream Porsche model leaving the halo cars to the elite group and leaving you still aspirational but a loyal Porsche consumer.....they are pretty clever
