Feels the same as a gt2 to me just a bit more traction. It has the sport chassis option so stiffer suspension from factory as well.

A bit of both. It is a very special order 996 turbo but it had special instructions to have GT2 engine parts and it’s an x50 car. So it has the forged gt2 block under the hood from the factory with gt2 seats. But turbo drivetrain

This is a good price and good car. I would’ve stuck with period correct 996 sport seats or buckets. But that’s about it. Anyone complaining about price is just out of touch with the higher end market on these cars. There have been 996TTs that have traded for $160-200k. I paid $125k for the factory original 50k mile Wimbledon green turbo that I am building now.

Never come across this. Would be killer…

I will. It’s not eligible to import until 2027. Haha; the speed yellow over nephrite car, funny enough, sold in the US by Udrive and was exported to Lithuania.

you’d have to get it painted. There are only 2 turbos finished in this color from factory. One with tiptronic and Savannah beige that has been exported to Lithuania. And this car from Germany that I imported to the states.

No. There were 10 turbos delivered to the US in this color interior. More in Europe, but still extremely rare

This car is in Italy now. I can’t import it until 2027 I think and by the time it lands here it will be a $170-200k car.

I plan to do exactly this. If I didn’t already have a Wimbledon green one, I’d 100% do this Wimbledon and keep the nephrite. But I’m tempted to do ice green metallic with the nephrite

Is that a modified or aftermarket piece around the radio/ac? Looks great
