I saw this on a Uk based Porsche forum. and considering Gt2 in Europe are selling for upwards of $150k it looks slightly underpriced ???

As the advertiser is nearer to the US geographically I thought it may be of interest?

The car looks right,,,correct speedlines etc...only the addition of an extension to the rear spoiler and the misquote of the engine size being 3.8 and not the usual 3.6 litre seem a little odd.

Seems to be genuine. I have heard that there are a number of 993 GT2 cars in Japan although they normally sell for considerably more than 50,000 pds.

Seems too good to be true.

As the saying goes.. it probably is too good to be true.

It is priced in RS territory...not GT2.

'Jean' will be one p****d dude if he hears this.

Jean

And I will be p****d off if it is a true GT2 and sells anywhere near this price

BUT, it does not seem like it, this is a clubsport with GT2 wheels.

Did the GT2 come with power steering and A/C?

Jean

clubrcr

Yes, on the street version, optional A/C.

clubrcr

I thought the GT2 and the RS both came with manual steering, but you should know. Bottom line... I think I would stay away from that car. The seller is telling you to do your own research vs. guaranteeing authenticity. If it was a genuine GT2 car the seller would be giving documentation on the car which would make the price higher.

Jean

Jim,

No, I am not sure about power steering as an option, I was talking about the A/C only, sorry. And I agree with your comments on staying away.

Best,
Jean

Looks like a total scam-- They don't have the car, they will take your money and turn around and make a bid for a car somewhere, supposedly in Japan. Uh, right...

Jean

That's what I thought but I was puzzled by the amount of positive feedack he had. I am not an Ebayer and know very little about these scams.

I think the 993RS used the power steering rack from the 964 (faster ratio than the 993). AFAIK, the last manual rack in a 911 was the 964RS and RS America - not sure about the GT2...

Look at the tail- it is a Clubsport tail, not a GT2 model. The CS tail will not fit over the GT2 intercoolers.

RS man

The engine cover does not read GT - it is a blur but longer and looks like Carrera RS is what is written there. GT2s cost hell of a lot more than that in Japan. I would be very suspicious of buying from them. A pristine GT2 will cost 1800 0000 Yen in Japan.

I pointed out all these inconsistencies to the seller and he was not pleased at all. What a scam!

Monique

Absolutely correct Grant.
