    It was a joke. You know, a humorous thing that a person says when not meaning it seriously?

    I know that Athens are virtually brand new (you've certainly done a fine job for the Olympics), but wasn't it YOU (or some other member from Greece) that commented on the bad quality of your roads?
    As for expectations, I didn't expect you to buy a Turbo, but you did .

    Re: 997gt2 known facts?

    Lol no hard feelings.. I would expect either to buy a Turbo especially TIP. But i was so bored of waiting...

    Errr, it was actually me.. Rwd cars with any decent power are pretty useless if you want to push the car hard as there is no traction to 95% of the roads (new athens ring road excluded). Imo ferraris, GT2 etc are pretty useless unless you a. are a racing driver, b. you intend to drive them like .. a typical ferrari owner.
    997tt is the king for that place and Nick will realize that when he test drives any powerful ferrari..

    Re: 997gt2 known facts?

    Will the turbos have the VTG function as the Turbo?

    Re: 997gt2 known facts?

    Most likely yes.

    Re: 997 GT2 is coming...more details

    Ferrari Challenge Street model

    I am thinking the new GT2 vs the 430 CS, which has around 525 hp and lighter than the normal 430.

    Any thoughts?

    Slim to none-or I'll be pleasantly surprised.

    Re: 997 GT2 is coming...more details

    What about LEDs and new headlamps?

    It is a good idea to start that with the flagship and than the other 911s.

    Just like the tail lamp on Enzo then F430.

    Absolutely no chance - the engine will be based on the 997tt lump, the current 997tt configuration is good for 540hp (as demonstrated by RS Tuning)Porsche will just tweak it to ~520hp with the VVT providing the area under the curve to make the GT2 outperform the competion IMHO
