The new 911 GT2 is produced combining technology used in 996 Turbo and 996 GT3 with much increased power. Engine is an evolution of the race-proven unit that powered the 911 GT1, which won in 1998 Le Mans . The water-cooled, twin-turbo flat six develops 340 kW (462 bhp) from a displacement of 3,600 cm3, as well as maximum torque of 620 Nm from 3,500 to 4,500 rpm.

    The 911 GT2 chassis delivers one of the most dynamic driving experiences ever featured on a production Porsche - without compromising on comfort. Race-ready handling combines with outstanding agility and safety to offer the perfect ride in all road conditions. To achieve that performance, center of gravity has been lowed by around 20mm compared with the 911 (996) Turbo, and added a revised spring and damper system. 

    The race-proven cable-operated gearshift mechanism provides smooth and precise gear changes while eliminating the transfer of vibration from the engine and gearbox to the passenger compartment. The GT2 clutch is designed for fast, fluid gearshifts and is paired with a dual-mass flywheel for an even smoother ride. For racing use, all gear ratios can be replaced to suit individual circuit characteristics.
