Finshed in unmarked Zanzibar Red. With a black leather interior with lots of carbon accents. Sat on four unmarked wheels. The leather is in very good condtion.This is the best 911 996 GT3 we have came across. The Zanzibar red is simply beauitful. With the raw 3.5 enigne which puts out 355BHP this 996 GT3 is a real head turner. With a really racing experience of having a Manuel gearbox! This GT3 has a full service history and has had £1000s spent on looking after it. It has never been tracked. The Porsche 996 is the internal designation for the Porsche 911 model manufactured from 1997 to 2006. It was replaced by the 997 in 2004. The 996 had little in common with its predecessor, with the first all new chassis platform since the original 911 and a new water-cooled engine. Technically, it was a major change, a complete breakthrough from the original car other than overall layout. Development was shared with its entry-level sibling, the roadster-only Boxsterwhich was introduced around the same time, including the front suspension, various interior components, and the engine, all of which were enlarged for the 996.

    997.1 Vs 997.2

    INTRODUCTION The Porsche 911 built from 2005-2011 (code named 997) was an important car for Porsche. Following the economic successful but controversial Porsche 996, Porsche took a look at what their customer base disliked about the 996 and sought to improve it with the upcoming 997 model. They succeeded. The Porsche 997 was hailed as a big step forward by the media and die-hard Porsche 911 fans, and eliminated many issues Porsche fans had with the Porsche 996. The Porsche 997 was more evolutionally then revolutionary like the prior 996, and kept the 1999-2004 Porsche 996’s chassis and greenhouse as its foundation. But it ditched the unusual headlight design, added flared fenders and oval headlights that recalled the much beloved air-cooled Porsche 993 (1995-1998). The interior was also redone to make a return to the traditional Porsche forms – with simple vents, door panels and squarer seats. The big difference was performance. It was visually improved with a redesigned suspension and more powerful engines. New technologies were incorporated such as electrically adjustable shock absorbers and PCCB carbon-ceramic brakes. In the second-gen 997 the cars featured all new engines and the new PDK dual- clutch gearboxes. With the last 997 shipped from the factory in 2012, its safe to say the Porsche 997 was a huge success and now is a great Porsche 911 to buy in the second-hand market. This guide will help you on your way to obtain a Porsche 997.

This feature, the first in our four- part mini-series, starts with the 2005 season where the iconic 996 GT3 RSR was a potent force on the GT racing scene, and rolls through to 2008. The story of 911 racing in Europe is like no other, because the 911 is the only single continuously evolving sports car model in the market. www.porscheroadandrace.com The Royal Automobile Club Tourist Trophy, Silverstone, 7 May 2006: Porsche 996 GT3 RSR of Race Alliance driven by Thomas Grüber (A)/Lukas Lichtner-Hoyer (A) finished 18th (11 laps behind the winner) overall from 26th on the starting grid In this mini-series, we will bring you some highlights from this remarkable journey as it unfolded from ’05 right up to the present. In order to share this 911 motorsport heritage with you, our readers, we have dug into our photo archive to produce a selection of racing images that best represents this period. www.porscheroadandrace.com 2005 The 996 GT3 Cup Car, the first racing car to usher in the new era of water-cooled Porsches back in 1999, could be upgraded to 400 bhp at 7300 rpm from its 3.6-litre engine, and had a sub-4 second time for the 0-62 mph sprint.
