Seller's Introduction
duPont REGISTRY Live proudly presents this 2008 Porsche 911 GT2, an exceptionally low-mileage example of Porsche's most formidable 997-generation road car. Showing just 8,958 miles, this Black-on-Black GT2 is one of only 185 examples delivered to the United States for the 2008 model year. Powered by the legendary twin-turbocharged Mezger flat-six paired with a coveted 6-speed manual transmission, this GT2 combines immense performance with a level of driver engagement rarely found in modern supercars. Equipped with sought-after factory options including Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB), the Sport Chrono Package Plus, and carbon fiber bucket seats, this example represents one of the most collectible water-cooled Mezger-powered Porsche models ever produced.
Overview
The 997 GT2 stands among the most exhilarating production cars Porsche has ever built. As the flagship of the 911 lineup, it paired the race-proven Mezger engine with rear-wheel drive and a 6-speed manual transmission, creating a driving experience defined by immense power, precision, and respect. Produced in limited numbers, the 997 GT2 has become one of the most sought-after modern Porsche models, prized for its uncompromising character and motorsport-derived engineering.
Finished in Black, this GT2 presents an understated yet unmistakably aggressive appearance. The widebody silhouette is complemented by glossy black 19-inch GT2 wheels wearing Porsche crest center caps, while yellow-painted brake calipers immediately identify the factory Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake system. Red taillights and rain-sensing windshield wipers complete the purposeful exterior, highlighting the subtle details that distinguish Porsche's ultimate rear-wheel-drive 911.
Inside, the cockpit reflects the GT2's dual-purpose nature, blending lightweight performance with premium appointments. Carbon fiber bucket seats trimmed in leather and Alcantara provide exceptional support, while Speed Yellow seat belts add a striking contrast to the monochromatic cabin. A black-faced Sport Chrono stopwatch sits prominently atop the dashboard, accompanied by illuminated carbon fiber GT2 door sills, Porsche Communication Management, a Bose Surround Sound System, and luggage compartment cooling, creating an environment equally suited for spirited driving and grand touring.
At its heart lies Porsche's legendary 3.6-liter twin-turbocharged Mezger flat-six, delivering power exclusively to the rear wheels through a precise 6-speed manual transaxle and locking differential. Renowned for its racing pedigree, durability, and explosive power delivery, the Mezger engine has become one of the most celebrated powerplants in Porsche history. Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes provide exceptional stopping performance while the Sport Chrono Package Plus sharpens throttle response and driving dynamics, resulting in one of the purest analog driving experiences of the modern era.
With production limited to just 185 U.S.-market examples for 2008 and showing fewer than 9,000 original miles, this GT2 represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire one of the rarest and most coveted Mezger-powered 911s. Combining rear-wheel-drive purity, a manual gearbox, twin-turbocharged performance, and collector-grade mileage, this 2008 Porsche 911 GT2 stands as one of the definitive driver's cars of the modern Porsche era.
