2008 Porsche 911 GT2 Review
The new GT2 is the fastest-ever 911, said to be able to accelerate to 60 miles per hour in a mere 3.7 seconds and reach a top speed of 204 mph. It can achieve these numbers thanks to a twin-turbocharged 530-horsepower, 3.6-liter boxer engine. The rear-wheel-drive sports car comes with electronically controlled active suspension management and rides on 19-inch light-alloy wheels. Advanced chassis-control systems abound to rein in the power.
Converted from Euros, the base price of the car in Germany is $214,261, which inflates to $255,186 if you factor in Europeâs 19 percent value-added tax (VAT). The 911 GT2 should roll into North American dealerships early in 2008 with a price tag substantially lower than these converted estimates.
