Got the GT2 today!

Well, after two months of searching, I finally located the right car.
2003 GT2 with 200 miles on it. The car came from Momentum BMW in Texas, and they were very easy to deal with, unlike most Porsche dealerships.

The car arrived this morning. Here are some pictures:

Thanks guys!


As far as mods, I am not sure. Probably exhaust, software and some rims. Of which exactly, I am not quite sure of yet.

Heck with all that... just change out the side markers and the car will be perfect.

Congrats and enjoy.

i say leave the sidemarkers and stick to performance-oriented modifications only: 18' bbs mag wheels, michelin pilot sport cups, motons, 4gt kit(??), clubsport cage and recaro fabric seats, and possibly the brembo le mans brakes. all go-fast mods! that would be MY ideal set-up, but open to other's opinions!

definitely go with light wheels; i finally did on my 3rd GT2 and what a difference.

and GT3 seats are mandatory. tequipement bar if you're going to track... or roll it!

everything else is uneeded

Josh,
very nice looking GT2. Congrats!

I was going to ask what made you get the GT2, instead of a 996TT, until I looked at your sig again.

Any differences you can share between the two beasts, from the short time you've had the GT2?

That is an evil ride. What about getting wheels with anodized red centers to compliment the instrument cluster... would that be super-eveil or what?
