Looking For A GT2?

In 2003 only 90 GT2's made it to the USA. And owners in that crowd report that about 30 of those have been wrecked. So, it is a very limited production car. AKA the widow maker.

I've always said that if God were to give me the opportunity to choose my mode and method of death, it would be behind the wheel of a Porsche at a very high rate of speed.

I would die with a big-ass grin on my face. There are much worse ways to die, that's for sure.

If what you say is true, I guess I dream of owning a widow maker

Too bad they don't make drop-top GT2s, or at least with a sunroof.

Too much power and torque, Bob. They need the roof for structural integrity. Plus, these cars can and do see the track. Plus, things like a sunroof would add weight to the car....bad.

I betcha you will see a GT2 rag top sooner or later. They need their equivalent of a Bentley convertible. Afterall, They put a sunroof in the 997 GT3, I guess so you can get a tan while your at Laguna Seca!
Porsche need to sell big ticket cars and just in case some ultra rich dude says "give me your most powerful turbo powered car and oh by the way my wife insists that it be a convertible". They don't care if a purist or a poser buys, as long as they buy!!

Bob:

I tell you what I'm gonna do for you. You buy that GT2 and no matter where you live, I'll fly out at my expense and bring my sawzall with me. I've got a new metal-cutting blade in it I've been dying to use and we'll cut you a sunroof in the top or take off the whole top... the more cuttin' I get to do the better!

If you have a buddy that has a tig welding machine, he could slap a couple of aluminum cross braced underneath the car to give it some structural rigidity that the roof was providing and bob's your uncle, you just got yourself a GT2 Cabriolet!

PM me with your info so I can book a ticket

PS - If anyone is reading this and Bob actually takes me up on it, your kind donations to my hospital bills would be greatly appreciated. Bob will have big hospital bills to pay too... Lord knows some Porsche lover will find us doing this to the GT2 and kick our butts fourteen different ways until we can't walk or talk or see out of either eye.

We need to do a group buy!

Randall, Perfectlap and Bob each send my $19 large. I think I can negotiate the price down a little. Then we each get the car 4 months of the year.

I respectfully request May-August.

Here is a little tidbit regarding the GT2. It was traded in for a Caymen S!
