I would assume this one to be the true holy grail. It gets used often but this might just be it. The ad says only one of 5 produced worldwide. Are they referring to colour or the Evo part? Not up to speed on these specialty offerings.

I would have thought that all the GT2's would have come with the RS seats instead of the hardbacks. Beautiful car.

This is the true holy grail of the 993 world and maybe all of Porsche. Being such a unique and special piece the pricing is pretty much irrelevant to all other 993s.

Holy Grail in the 993 world but not even close in the Porsche world. Gmund cars, 962, 917, 550, 904, 959 and so on and so on.

You would have to have FU money to even think about buying that. I am sorry, I love the 993 as much as anyone, but 1.4M Euro for a 993 is just beyond my minds comprehension abilities.

Same can be said about any car that is in that 1M+ price stratosphere ~ beyond a lot of people's comprehension. But, let's be real here, this is a turq blue (?) 993 GT2 Evo....one of 5 cars. Why couldn't it be priced up there with 959s, 550s, 962s, 917s, etc? This car is a piece of history and like the other uber rare models, basically priceless.

I just don't see how a bit of paint makes a car priceless.

I think it's the whole "5 were built" that makes the car priceless..I think colour is irrelevant.

the color is what makes it 1 of 5.

Beyond that, its a standard gt2 of which they made 57 or something.

Compared to a 962 or 917, this car is irrelevant in the world of porsche.

And what the obsession is with this stupid smurf blue, I'll never know.

^ You are ruining the mood here.

This is the place where we all stroke each other's egos on what an excellent decision it was to buy a 993 cheap years ago and a stroke of luck that it is the hottest thing today. We are all clairvoyant and fight crime at night.
