My old 2007. There is a 2011 on its way somewhere in a truck.

I don't have a lot of pics of my car (yet),... but also had this other one, which seems to show more silver,... but it's a much darker silver...

Titanium silver

Congrats Ralph964!!! Welcome to the club of owning both 964 & 997.2 GT3!!! Great combo garage mates IMO (... scroll up to post # 958 to see my pair. funny, post 958 - my DD is a 958 Cayenne Turbo too)

Can I ask what tail lights are on yours? ... or even what month your 2011 was built in?

the pic above seems to show the same tail lights as on my 2010. Did Porsche build some early 2011's, with leftover 2010 tail lights (that had the red surrounding the center-reverse-white portion)?? ... or was it an OPTION for the tail lights that have the top half silver & bottom half red? I prefer the ones on our car,... but just thought I would ask.

Beautiful! It's a really unique feeling to have something like that roll off the truck.
How did you decide that it was worth the upgrade to sell your .1 and buy a .2?

Thanks Steve I loved my 964. I sold it with a 73 RS replica to get the 07 GT3. I was actually drooling over your GT3 while waiting for mine to arrive.
My car was built in September of 2010. The tail lights have the red surround, I am not sure if it is was an option or not. I've only seen the silver upper with red lower on the white 2011's so far.

Auto_Werks 3.6, Sadly the decision was made for me as I destroyed my 07 in January. I actually wanted a .2 when I initially began to look, but I could not get the $$ to work. The 07 was a deal I could not pass, had some nice mods and was really good shape.
I like the body of the 997.2 over the 997.1, and I wanted axle lift. If I had not found a one I would have gladly purchased another .1

Sorry to hear that! Hopefully you have better luck with the new one. I bought my GT3 to autocross, and I enjoy doing occasional track days.... this car has been harder than the others I've owned to come to terms with the risk of writing it off. Oh well, you can't enjoy driving them when they're locked away in the garage!

Since I've been finding an excuse to post pics in other threads I might as well post it here where it belongs

Triple Black with PCCB and my newly hand painted wall art for it's home! The 997.1 is so special.

Who wants one of these paintings !? PM me
