After having a few different .2 rs’s I will still hold to if I could trade for a Kermit I’d do it in a minute. That’s the car that made me want a Porsche. The .2’s are great, I’m confident I’d love a .1 as much and that’s the end all keeper.

It's a very special car.

Gearing and buckets make the .2 for me but I do love the .1 styling.

Silver looks great as well. Silver came with orange accents which go back and fourth if I like them. Have seen they made one white car with orange accents and like this better.

I'm not hating the white and orange and with the acquisition of this orange Rs, I've since learned that orange isn't my color. Crazy as I love it on the old BMW 2002's and loved it when I first saw the 997.1 brand new at the dealer in that color.

+1 on Kermit.

Contrary to popular opinion, sold my .2rs to get back into a pumpkin .1rs. Had a couple opportunities to ****** a Kermit, but blew it. That ship has long sailed

Nah. That’s from the BaT sale of my car 2 owners prior. It looks properly neglected now. Debating trying a Cup lip next.

I'd like to do a cup lip, with vents and screw on that lip extender.

Love the orange and green of the .1’s but the grey black of the .2’s is my favorite.

There was a link up the other day for it, here. https://rennlist.com/forums/997-gt2-...l#post19624311

My guess is either it already sold (surprising) or they found out the history and took it down quickly and will auction it off/wholesale it.

Glad people are on top of cars like this here to save someone from losing $150k on a misrepresented example (showing no accident on carfax, but actually having one). If a car has a story but is at least properly represented, I think there's less of an issue there.
