Weirdly since I hardly ever see 997GT2s or even lookalikes, I just spotted this driving down the road in Marbella.

I'm really not sure what it is and couldn't get up close as it was driving off.

It seems to have the turbo rear wing mechanism so I'm going 997 Turbo but if it is someone has gone to a LOT of trouble putting on new rear wings and putting a Ruf style intercooler intake up there, maybe it is a Carrera with a turbo spoiler but that sounds even more work ?

The car has 997GT2.1 front and rear with .2 lights, has steel brakes, rear seats and are those 20" wheels ?

A nice hot rod, looked great in the sun and the colour looked stunning cool:

Ruf RT 12 S. The rear quarter panels and rear spoiler are give aways with intakes on top and thats a Ruf rear spoiler too. Acid Green or Gelb Grun. 250,000 - 300,000 Euros wink

yes But with OE GT2 front and rear bumpers rather than the Ruf items (and better for them imo) :

Ditto. Never understood the “murdered out” look.

GT2 has wild aero needs to be a louder green than BRG. Luminous colour with a set of folding bucket seats this 997 is a very nice custom build. Signal Green although I could be tempted with Gelb Grun or Acid Green too. Hope this helps thumbup

I don’t think the 997 GT2 aero kit is wild though, not compared to a GT3 RS.

Being body coloured helps it blend in.

I think the loud colours look too incongruous with it, just my humble opinion though. I’d like to think the OP can do whatever he likes best but for some bizarre reason, despite paying tens of thousands of pounds changing the look of his car he’s being dictated to do what he does with his money by Porsche.

I very much doubt it will be any other colour other than the OPs choice. Can’t wait to see finished article. I’ve seen a 997 GT2 in BRG. It doesn’t look too different to black actually. Someone’s painted an F40 BRG. One of nicest restomods I’ve seen.

Same person owned both brg gt2 rs and did this f40.

BRG very nice and so many lovely greens to choose from. Second pic RS and Viper Green different colour codes ( RS Green (2D8) and Viper Green (225) although many hence need to be careful if its Viper, Signal or RS as all quite different in flesh. This Speedster looks a million dollars in Mintgrün.

The BRG with carbon? bonnet looks mean.
The other with green wheels on green paint doesn't cut it, possibly worse combo than with black wheels
