    It looks like the stance of the GT2 is lower than the 997TT or is that my imagination? Looks very aggressive!

    Absolutely, the GT2 is lower than the 997 turbo.

    Both H&R and Techart sport springs for the 997 Turbo are 20 mm lower than stock suspension. Note, this is only new springs.

    A full Bilstein PSS9 suspension kit for the 997 Turbo is 35 mm lower than stock suspension and also adjustable 20 mm up/down via PASM. This kit is available from Cargraphic.

    Re: Red GT2 in the wild



    Yesterday I went to visit our porsche dealer, just checking what cars they have parked outside, and the security guard who knows me and my father, said me they have the new 997 GT2, in their subterranean garage!!!! (??? ???), I asked again if it was the NEW GT2 and he said yes....So now I ask you guys if its possible?, How can the 997 gt2 be so early at the dealers?

    Obviously Sportauto planned to produce a nice vid showing the GT2 on NoS with Helmut Dähne (superfast bike racer) following the GT2 on his bike and videotaping the car from behind. Though it seems that Dähne lost part of the video equipment while chasing the GT2

    Wow, it looks incredible in red! Guards Red was my favorite color on the 996 GT2.
