So in 2008, 1 Ruby Red Metallic and no Malachite Green Metallic got checked....a serious shame in hindsight.

I have seen a 7GT2 in Ruby Red Met in the flesh here in the UK and IMO it didn't look good at all really didn't suit the car.

The lone Midnight blue is for sale.... I'd be tempted, but the fact it was previously modded to over 700 hp makes me nervous.

According to the previous dealer listing, Midnight Blue(WP0AD29968S796159) had:

TPC Racing Blitzkreig turbo set
TPC Racing Blitzkreig turbo header set
TPC Racing intercooler set 127mm
Blitzkreig tune
Denso race plugs DPP
Redline racing fluids
TPC Racing GT3 toe rod set
DSC ecu
GT3RS rear lower control arm cup
Ramp set
Clutch pack

No mention of any of this in the current listing. Would be interesting JG 996T if you could take a look and see if it's been put back to stock.

This just popped up in my Instagram feed: roadrichmotors in Costa Mesa has a 2008 White GT2 with 8K miles. I know nothing about the car or the seller.

Looks like a nice car. Full leather. For some reason the factory .1 GT2 side model designation never did it for me like the .1 GT3RS does, but it looks good pretty there in white, at least in their lead photo:



Speaking of, as I have been running out of COVID projects to do, I went ahead and installed .2 style side model designation decals the other day:

It's not strictly factory original for the car, but so much white it needs a little something there to break it up a bit.
What do y'all think? Thumbs up or down on this?

Looks good.

I actually like the GT2 factory side graphics, especially on a white car.

i checked it out. It’s modified. Exhaust header and turbo internals (GT2 oem housings). They have original exhaust.

after talking with them, I’m 99% sure, it’s a rennlisters car - CT944 or something like that - because he traded both GT2 and GT3 RS (997.2) for a 991 RS.

car has low miles, paint needs correction and detail but otherwise didn’t see a whole lot of road rash/chips.

The RS has a nice guards roll bar. Looked like a club sport bar. Haven’t been following GT2 market but Lots of competition in 180,000 Range.



Blue GT2

So it would seem that the dealer who is selling it now has made a conscious decision to not disclose the modifications. In shopping for a GT2 today, it seems originality may be more of a driving factor than it has been in the past? Or maybe this is just a lazy dealer hasn’t bothered listing the mods? I am thinking the former is more likely.

Salesman came outside and disclosed the mods without me asking...I was at a small meet this morning and several of the guys knew about the car and that it was modified. Small market.
