you wont see many GT Cars in the snow as they are not Galvanized (No Rust Proffing from Factory) not a good idea with the Salt...

The 997 GT3 is definitely galvanized...I'd be shocked to learn that the 996 GT3 wasn't...I seriously doubt they'd include a 10-year unlimited mile rust warranty on the GT3 RS if it wasn't galvanized.

+1 on the galvanized.
"An important aspect of this coupe is the standard safety equipment which includes a fully galvanized high strength steel body"

Fact checking is a wonderful thing.

i was told that when the 997.1 GT3 just came out... its possible the 997.2 is Galvanized as you have provided Info up there... But i was told that the 996 and 997.1 GT Cars were not Galvanized...

The GT cars do not have undercoating, and the rust perforation warranty is shortened significantly, though still existent. I believe all 911s have been galvanized since the early 70s and all Porsches starting at some point in the 80s (the 924 was only partially galvanized for some time).
