This is without a doubt the cheaper alternative to buying the 997 and consists of an entirely new front spoiler bumper, two fenders with a racing fuel tank cap, plus an original Porsche parts kit including complete lighting units and headlamps (for vehicles with or without \223Litronic\224). At first sight, it is not possible to tell the 996 apart from the 997.
This is truly an amazing site. This beautiful silver Porsche 996 GT2 is rocking the new $10K HRE CF40 wheels! The outter barrel is made from Carbon Fiber by Dymag and then HRE machines the center section to assemble this wheel. They are 19×8.5 and 19×12 for the GT2. This is one of the strongest and lightest wheels right now and the black center with the carbon looks amazing here! Check out more HRE Wheels and Porsche Products here.
670 whp on 93 octane with 200-cell catalytic converters in place, and a super-smooth curve that gives the car a "Jekyll and Hyde" duality of smooth cruising and easy driving around-town, followed up by Veyron-baiting performance when the nanny-controls are off and the pedals hit the metals.
Check out these pics of our customer from Scotland and his Porsche 996TT ripping the track in the UK. His 700HP tiptronic is running on some custom colored flat black Volk Racing TE37 wheels by Vivid Racing. The 18×8.5 and 18×11 wheels are a 1 piece forged design weighing under 18lbs each. Pretty clean!
Switzer have been hard at work all last week fine-tuning the latest version of their 996 P800 PKG. The new Switzer-modified Tial Alpha based turbo design offers a substantial increase in power AND response compared to K16s, and dramatically improved response and smoother power delivery compared to conventional turbo kits with similar power claims.

The highlight of my weekend was visiting EU Autowerks on Saturday April 5, 2008. Porche meetup in Toronto with a whack of Porsches just taken out of storage on the first beautiful day of spring.
The highlight of my weekend was visiting EU Autowerks on Saturday April 5, 2008. Thanks to Farzook aka Zookie from RennList.com and RennTech.org with the beautiful 2004 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S who invited me out to meet up in person and allow me to take some photos of these awesome machines fresh out of winter storage!!!
In the Middle East they cover/coat their supercars in chrome (Chrome Ferrari 599 GTB Photos) and apparently in Russia they drive in solid gold covered Porsche 911 996 Cabriolets. More than 40 pounds of the pure gold was harmed in coating this eastern gem. Looks like this yellow brick road could potentially belong to the Wizard of OZ
The 996GT2 has a fearsome reputation as a bit of a brute. Lots of grunt going through the rear wheels only...sounds OK to me. This one was at a Porsche Club race event at Sydney's Eastern Creek raceway.

In other words, itfs the owners, not manufacturers nor media experts that find and decide the value of GT3. After all, Ver.02 is about how owners like to drive it.

It was to keep the quality of products at the same high level as those of Version.01 and 02 yet make it easier to attach to stock body.
