SUMMARY
If a 996 GT2 with the Clubsport package is not the ultimate driver's car, then it's not far away.
DESCRIPTION
With the advent of the water-cooled 996 in 1999, it was inevitable that a GT2 version would be on the cards soon after and in 2001, Weissach duly obliged. First revealed at the 2000 North American International Car Show, costing £114,900, around £30,000 more than the already bonkers Turbo, the GT2 was powered by the M96/70 3.6-litre, twin-turbocharged flat-six producing 463bhp and 620Nm of torque, all transferred to terra firma through the rear wheels. The Mezger engine fitted to the GT2 utilised the newly introduced Variocam Plus system and had 10% more power than the Turbo, which was achieved by fitting larger turbochargers and intercoolers, a revised air intake, a modified exhaust system and a re-programmed ECU.
The GT2 also made use of a race-derived gearbox which was reworked and fitted with the lubrication system from the GT3 RS, plus the addition of a friction plate, limited-slip differential tuned to match the car's ultra-stiff suspension which was 20mm lower than the Turbo to achieve a lower centre of gravity. Coupled with aluminium monobloc 'Turbo Design' wheels, a larger 89-litre fuel tank and completely new front panelling to reduce aerodynamic front-lift at high speeds and increase air intake, the GT2 was brutal from day one. Naturally, performance was electrifying with a 0-62mph time of just 4.1 seconds and a top speed of 196mph.
Body modifications improved the car's dynamics and although similar wide wings and arches were used along with a more aggressive nose and a larger rear wing. The whole effect was more subtle than the slightly 'tacked on' look of the 993 GT2. Power was not the only objective and the car's weight was reduced by 90kg from the basic 911 Turbo which, when combined with stiffer springs and other suspension modifications, resulted in superb handling. In period, this was the fastest road car Porsche had ever produced.
However, to appease those who had been hoping for a new 'turn-key' racer, the Clubsport package was offered, featuring fire-retardant cloth lined Recaros, 6-point race harnesses, a bolt-in rear roll cage (front section supplied separately), fire extinguisher and a battery cut-off switch.
This beautifully presented Porsche 911 GT2 Clubsport in Basalt Black Metallic with a black Clubsport interior and red seatbelts was supplied new by Riverdale Porsche confirmed by its accompanying Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. The UK received only 17 Clubsports, making this a very rare Porsche.
The car is in exceptional condition, belying its indicated 36,203 miles. Accompanying documentation consists of a comprehensive history file of service/maintenance invoices from various Porsche dealers and independent specialists, the most recent being issued by JZM for a service carried out in September 2023. This stunning Porsche comes with great provenance and has been cossetted in a significant private Collection where only the very best will do.
Rear-wheel drive and 463bhp make for a visceral driving experience and it's not hard to see how these Porsches gained a reputation as the ultimate driver's car, capable of humbling the vast majority of supercars cars on both road and track.
