RHD 993GT2

[TIGA84]

Holy Grail as far as I'm concerned in RHD and one of the 7 - shame I'm some way away from being able to afford it!

Any guesses on how much, got to be 6-700k?

honestly wouldn't surprise me if it was more!

Perfect. Just perfect.

I'd happily pay 600K (if that is indeed the approximate price) for that over the stupid inflated prices for the 991R and GT3RS.

I doubt 600 would be enough these days. There's a left hooker currently for sale in Europe for €1.65M.

Does anyone know the whereabouts of the RHD cars at the moment? My old man's colleague had one (though I can't be certain it was RHD) many moons ago. He and it were featured in a very early issue of Evo against Justin Bell in a Viper. Since it was pretty much single-handedly responsible for putting me on the road to my GT3 twenty years later, iIt would be interesting to find out what happened to that car.

What colour was it?

I know DK sold a silver one a few months ago, this one is for sale, there's a Guards Red one, Karl Crompton has still got his, that's a green/blue kind of colour and I think Maldon sold a Yellow one some time ago, plus there is a RHD in Australia and I think its black.

There was a chap on here with an Orange one that'd been upgraded, plus the Audi RS blue one, but I'm not sure if either were RHD.

I am no expert though.

Dark metallic blue.

Both of Vic's old GT2s were LHD. The Blut Orange Clubsport is a very special car

Cheers for that, couldn't remember his name.

Who was the guy who had the RS blue one and a white CGT, ended up in the clink or something?

OK, slightly scary that someone nailed the colour on the car within one post, but I'd expect nothing less, I suppose. The car in the ad appears to be a 993 Turbo GT2 conversion rather than the real thing. I'm pretty certain Dave's car was the real deal, though it should be noted that I was 14 at the time.

have a picture from Houghton Tower many years ago and there is a blue and silver one there. 99% certain both were RHD. think the reg plates are in the pictures. will try and find the photograph ( paper one, not digital ). friend will know. he used to maintain some of his cars.

That's Chris Harris's old car I believe

Sambaman?
He had a few nice cars.

The dark blue one? I heard stories about what happened to the owner later (which I won't share due to the personal details involved) but as far as I understood, the car was taken to South Africa at some point. When did Chris Harris own a GT2 (in order to establish timelines).

EDIT: A bit of Googling has established that Monkey owned the silver one (P819UHR). Still leaves the mystery of Dave's blue one.

No, the car currently for sale that started the thread is Chris's old car, I believe

Is it just me or does the interior (seats pedal wear) of the car in the add look like it's done more than the stated mileage?
