Ooh, that's a spicy meatball there. Looks like the Carfax got updated after the BaT auction. The BaT description says the door was replaced after a parking lot incident, but no mention of the airbag.

While I'm sure everyone here knows about the many GT2RS in Europe for sale (3 for sale in Germany, 1 in Austria, 2 meh RHD in the UK) there are also some GT2s. There is a rumored (per IG) white GT2 available Switzerland 5 KM from me. I'm going to look at it tomorrow. I know nothing about the company. rodclassic.ch.
It's about time imo that the 997.1 GT2 started to climb. 997.1 GT3 prices are raging at the moment and 997.2 3RSs have solid sales numbers at ~2x msrp. I'd think hanging on to such a rare bird as the .1 GT2 would be a no brainer - No?
For those of us lucky enough to own them...we already know the truth. They are far greater than the sum of their parts, and rarer than even the mighty Carrera GT. I think our time in the sun will come, from a market perspective. It's already long overdue.
The only problem with this car is the mileage, for me it’s too low, this one belongs in a large collection preferably Porsche based collection, with minimal drive time and preservation, but we all know the GT2 is so fun to drive that it’s too bad this one will never see enough pavement to be enjoyed.
They uploaded a DME report. One of the slower average speeds I have seen on a DME. A blistering 14 MPH average. Maybe lots of slow drives around the block or time on but not moving? 961 total miles on the car and 66 total hours.
I think I remember reading an interview with Andreas Preuninger where he stated that when he and his team designed the GT2, they did so to ensure the car could handle speeds of 14mph, and maybe even as high as 20mph. Anything above that and the PCCBs would need to be replaced and warranty would be voided.
As a GT2 owner, I was kind of surprised to learn that he did not develop it. His critique in the interview I saw was that it was not serious enough. It's a surprising comment because part of what I feel makes the car special is it's very broad range of capability. I think that it's one of the most broadly useable GT cars ever built.
