I know, the sport chrono is kind of silly, I figured I could at least time myself when at the track, but really, its seems like a waste of 2 grand.

There is an Atlas 997 GT3 that goes to the track and it looks beautiful...thought it might look good on the GT2 as well. Was thinking black or basalt since the car is rather sinister and those colors do it justice.

Anyway, it's a good problem to have...choices regarding a GT2 order I mean.

yeah sport chrono is a waste of your 2 grand but I'm sure your dealer will enjoy the extra 1700 bucks in his pocket

The chrono adds power enhancement just like the TT chrono

640 Sport Chrono Package Turbo - $1,920

Analog and digital chronometer, sport button in the center console and display in the PCM, also adds ability to adjust lighting, wipers, AC and door locking to suit personal preference. The Sport Chrono Package Turbo also provides a temporary overboost of approx. 0.2 bar increasing the maximum torque significantly from approx. 460 lb.-ft. to a maximum of 505 lb.-ft. between 2,100 rpm and 4,000 rpm. The result - markedly improved acceleration and elasticity especially in the mid rev range.

Peter,

It does say that in the guide, but that is inaccurate. The sport chrono only adds the electronic features and no performace feature unless you count the lighter wallet we'll be carrying

Fantastic! Also, the black does not show off some of the GT2 details.

Dealmaker, I think your white with black shoes will look out of this world. I have a white TT and never thought I would own a white Porsche, but I love it.

I will be taking a hard look at an Atlas GT3 when we go to the track in Dec...I might have to change my order to white.

Sweet

Now that's good looking! A little on the mean side, but good mean!

I queried Porsche about Sport Chrono on the GT2. Here is their response:

The info on Sport Chrono was a carryover, the correct information is 505lb-ft continuously (with or without Sport Chrono). On the GT2 Sport Chrono provides the following: Dashtop chronograph, PCM integrated laptimer and memory, enhanced memory functions for climate control, wipers, locks and lighting.

Just in case if anyone is curious, here is what Mike from RSS said about Cargraphic's new 997 GT2.
