Hero model
Among Porsche fans, the tag ‘GT3’ is spoken with some justified reverence, given the line’s status as homologation specials. In other words, pukka high-performance cars with a generous helping of track-influenced design.
Given the high cost, the strong competition association and relatively small production numbers, they’ve also become a favourite with collectors/investors.
The 997.2 is the second iteration of the second generation GT3.
Basic stats include a 3.8lt boxer six powerplant claiming 320kW (429hp) – or more depending on variant – and a six-speed manual transmission.
This example claims to be in excellent shape with good records, frequent servicing and just 20,409km on the odo.
Lorbek in Melbourne has it at $398,880.
