Hexagon Classics are delighted to offer this low mileage Porsche 997 GT2, which is presented in exemplary condition. Driving the turbocharged, rear-wheel drive Porsche GT2 is one the most exhilarating driving experiences. Not only is the GT2 powerful, but all the power is sent to the rear wheels exclusively through a six-speed manual transmission - no PDK or automatic was ever offered.
Autocar wrote in their review, “This time the big difference is that the GT2 is an amalgam of both ordinary turbo in the engine department and GT3 in the chassis. The engine is essentially a mildly uprated, more powerful version of the Turbo’s and now has 523bhp at 6500rpm and a constant 502lb ft between 2200-4500rpm. The chassis is a development of the GT3’s with a bespoke aluminium rear subframe, standard-fit carbon ceramic brakes and, being a GT2, no front drive shafts. Yes, each and every one of those 523bhp reaches the road via just two contact patches, courtesy of a pair of huge 325/ 30 19in Michelin Pilot Cup tyres.”
They continued, “Despite the fact that the GT2 can, according to Porsche, accelerate from zero to 62mph in 3. 7sec, from zero to 100mph in 7. 4sec and doesn’t run out of puff until a quite hilarious 204mph, the latest GT2 is something of a pussy to drive. Unlike its predecessor the new GT2 delivers in pretty much all departments. It’s time-bendingly quick in a straight line, and the way the engine feels so primed off-boost is surpassed only by the way it fires you with such total conviction on-boost. Bugatti Veyron apart I reckon this is the best turbocharged engine installation there has yet been. But the best thing about the new GT2 is that the rest of the package is now so sorted you can actually use the performance on the road.”
Our car was supplied new by Porsche Centre Cardiff in October 2008.

It has a clean over rev test and is complete with its driver book pack, and history file, which contains service invoices and historic MoT certificates, factory build sheet, and spare remote key. The GT2 will also be supplied with a 12-month comprehensive written warranty.
