Default 993 GT2 BRAAAAND NEEEEEW - captured.

I was at the dealership garage, when the mananger told me about "IT".

OMG...almost fell to the ground. Cudn't believe it was still there - I saw it last some years ago. Same place, but different warehouse, location within the premises.

I am not gona write more - hands shaking, damn thrilled at the classic, immortal beauty of this automobile! Oh god, no - am I gona have a heart attack...or what! It hurts.......!

Took some pics - for you guys to see.

MILAGE: 150 miles - HUNDRED FIFTY - only.

You are killing me here. Is it the dealerships car? Are they storing it for someone? Is that bad boy for sale (not that I could afford it)? Great pics.

I know that this one is a really hot performer and a very limited car but if you have the 993 Turbo S in the avatar, I think you have a much prettier car. I have always hated the look of these stuck-on fenders on the GT2. The 993 Turbo S is a car that few will ever have the opportunity of riding in let alone driving and owning. An opinion for what it is worth. Have a great day and happy motoring.

If I could magically (and we're talking serious magic here) get any Porsche, it would be a blk/blk/blk/blk/blk/blk 993 Turbo S.

as much as i really, really like the turbo s, i don't think it compares with the 993 gt2. i luv the added flares, big wing and deep splitter on the front...i'd take one in any color.

150 miles? Talk about a time capsule. Great find, thanks for the pics of my favourite car (tied with the 993RS, of course).

Somebody call Andreas, it's covered in dust!!!!

I'd take a 993 GT2 over a Turbo S anyday. Sometimes form follows function, but, even then, I think the GT2's fenders look purposeful and bad-***. That the GT2 has RWD and lighter weight is all the better. MHO.

I will need to respectfully disagree with each & every point you made...
