He claims he has done the Nordschleife in an incredible 7:31m, even faster than the factory figure we provided.

Do you believe this, Hassan?

And Rörhl managed 7.28 in the Carrera GT!

Porsche builds some truly amazing autombiles and I'm not surprised by this figure!

But you definitely get what you pay for!

Simple as this: This car over any Italian or any other in this class! Period!

Yeah the price is high but if you want the best sports but can't afford a CGT or Zonda, then this is the car to have.

On the other hand it takes one very skilled and fearless driver to drive the GT2 at it's limit. Walter is spectacular.

Wiesmann MF5 please! (sorry, couldn't resist..

Seriously though, the GT2 is a car that simply no one can fault. Whether you like it or not, It'll be spectacular; just like any 911 before it. Looking forward to the first performances tests!
