Lot #1449 - Sold new on July 25, 2008, in New York, this 997 generation GT2 was delivered in Basalt Black Metallic over a full black leather interior. It was optioned with deviated stitching in red throughout, red instruments and adaptive sport seats, sports chromos, aluminum trim and a racing fire extinguisher. Within a few months of being sold, it was transported to California. It has travelled 3,524 actual miles since delivery and is in showroom-condition. Since 2013 it has been in the possession of two prominent Porsche collectors. It has never been in an accident or had any insurance claims. The 3.6-liter, twin-turbocharged flat-6 engine comes with larger turbochargers and a new intake manifold that uses expansion chambers to cool the fuel and air mixture, and is backed by a 6-speed manual transmission. The rear exhaust muffler and tailpipes are made of titanium to save weight. The GT2 has Porsche ceramic composite brakes as standard equipment. A copy of the official Porsche Certificate of Authenticity accompanies this car.
