It was underrated at that level. Technically it could reach C6 ZR1 and Mk2 Viper SRT10 levels of power, but it wouldn't have passed emissions in Europe until the release of the RS version, so Porsche understated it to be "officially" in the league of C6 Z06 and Mk1 Viper SRT10, even though we all knew it was competing with the Ferrari 430 Scuderia and Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera!

With that being said, Porsche finally lifted the "official" power restrictions on production cars starting with this particular car. That's why I will always love the 997 generation, especially of the Turbo, GT3 and GT2 varieties.

Porsche did the same thing with the GT3 at that time, capable of C6 Z06 and Mk1 Viper SRT10 levels of power (even in independent road tests without modifications) but underrated "officially" at C6 Grand Sport and Maserati GranTurismo levels of power.

To be fair however, the 911 is more of a Nissan GT-R and Aston Martin Vantage/DB competitor. The Corvette, Viper and GranTurismo all aren't exotic or high-quality enough to match the 911 even when they're so "good" performance-wise.

Even for today's standards this car is still really fast and beautiful. It's probably one of my favorite 911's of all time.

This time the 0-150 and 1/2 mile kinda fit. 0-150 and 0-151 both in 18.0, yeah, maybe the car accidentally went downhill? Still pretty impressive!

Would this car be even faster around a track with the PDK transmission?

Did porsche cancel the 2011/200K 550hp GT2? Can\'t find any info on an upgraded 550hp 2011 GT2 from the previous 530hp GT2. Anyone?

777 14y ago

i thought porsche announced a facelift for the 2011 GT2 by bumping the HP from 530 to 550??

Mike B 14y ago

thanks

gt 14y ago

will there be a facelift? I ask because is a bit strange that the RS version has been released first.

i think that they will introduce 991 (or 998) gt2 q4 2011 or maybe Frankfurt auto show 2011 but sells as 2012

Georg 14y ago

according to car magazines, no there will be no new 997 version...the 997 GT2 RS was the last evolution of the 997 chassie, the next will be the 998
