2001 Porsche 911 / 996 supercharged and heavily modified towards a GT2..with flair! Car is still periodically being
driven, so mileage will go up a little. I am selling this fun weekend car, along with my daily driver BMW M3, as I
just started a new company, so this car gets to go to a new owner!
I bought this car from a guy that had this vision of the best of Porsche you could make (reasonably!). He put into
many of his own design concepts but to be sure, it was built for a unique styling and pure driving performance
-- and not to be a show queen by any means. To him, a Porsche is meant to be driven and this is a perfect
example of a car that you love to drive. Even still, you will get a TON of comments, cheers, etc while
driving

Here is the LONG list of options and modifications done to the car:
Original carbon fiber optioned car -- steering wheel and other trim inside plus Factory Sport seats with
Porsche crest in the headrest
VF Engineering Supercharger kit with intercooler, sensors, DME, injectors, etc and adds 7PSI of boost
Full stainless steel exhaust including sport cats and mufflers
IPD Intake Plenum - IPD 96200
Stage 2 performance clutch and Lightweight flywheel
993 RS rubber mounts / WEVO mounts - not a "solid" mount
IMS upgrade / repair completed
Tons of other maintenance including almost all of the coolant hoses, the coolant tank, belts, water pump, LN
Engineering billet oil filter and magnetic drain plug, etc, etc. Basically, nearly everything that could be done
when the car was apart.
Upgraded to Turbo brakes (Big Reds) front and rear
Coil-over suspension installed - Car was professionally corner balanced and set to GT3 specs
Upgraded sway bars and links
Short shifter kit and linkage
Porsche skid plate
Customizable throttle sensitivity with remote
Boost and AFR gauges installed in A-pillar then wrapped in leather
Pioneer AVIC touch screen deck with navigation, Bluetooth, Rear view camera
Custom mounted garage door opener (homelink)
Valentine V1 radar detector custom mounted and Escort shifter Laser jammer with custom stealth installation
Body kit
o TechArt style front bumper damage from a train track crossing which also cracked the splitter K I included
the pictures from when it was perfect, as well as the current picture with the damage. I pulled off the front
splitter as that was too low for city driving and got caught on everything. I still have it, and it can be repaired
if desired
o GT3 rear bumper
o GT2 rear decklid and spoiler
o Custom, one of a kind, rocker panels
o Turbo quarter panel intake ducts -- installed to look flush/factory
PlastiDip with semi-gloss pearl white. It is not perfect and has a few imperfections but looks good from 10.
If you want to truly paint it, you can just peel it off
Upgraded Bi-xenon headlights (2002+)
Decante LED rear taillights, LED 3rd brake light, LED front daytime running lights (in the bumper intakes)
997 side mirrors painted in a GT3 RSR theme
New 19" wheels with relatively new rubber all the way around (note, the rears are really wide and rub when you
hit large bumps so there is some marring on the rears, which has also put rubber marks around the rear fender)
Aftermarket Tire pressure sensors (tpms)

VW close to decision on selling Bugatti to Rimac
Sun, Feb 21 2021FRANKFURT Electric hypercar maker Rimac Automobili and Volkswagen's supercar brand Bugatti are a good technological fit, Porsche's CEO told German weekly Automobilwoche, fueling hopes that a deal between the two could happen soon. British automotive magazine Car last year reported that Volkswagen was on the verge of selling Bugatti to Rimac Automobili, citing sources. In exchange, Porsche, also owned by Volkswagen, would raise the 15.5% stake it owns in Rimac, founded by Croatian entrepreneur Mate Rimac, Car said. "At the moment there are intense deliberations on how Bugatti can be developed in the best possible way. Rimac could play a role here because the brands are a good technological fit," Porsche CEO Oliver Blume said. "There are various scenarios with different structures. I believe that the issue will be decided by the group in the first half of the year," said Blume, who also sits on the management board of parent Volkswagen. Rimac has developed an electric supercar platform, which he supplies to other carmakers, including Pininfarina. Blume also confirmed higher savings targets for Porsche, saying the carmaker plans to support results by 10 billion euros ($12.1 billion) of cost cuts by 2025, up from 6 billion previously.

All Porsche 911s to get turbos in 2015?
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Currently, Porsche builds two turbocharged 911s - the Turbo and the Turbo S (and their cabriolet counterparts). The rest of the 911 range, meanwhile, is motivated by either 3.4- or 3.8-liter flat-sixes of varying outputs. This clear separation could be set to change in the very near future, though, as rumors continue to swirl that Porsche's rear-engined range could switch exclusively to turbocharged power.
This time, it's Car projecting that the 911 range will go turbocharged as part of a mid-cycle refresh, with the base Carrera's 3.4-liter dropping to 2.9 liters and adding an iron lung, bumping the entry level 911 up to 400 horsepower. Yes, a 400-horsepower, entry level 911. The Carrera S, meanwhile, will retain its 3.8-liter engine, but will also benefit from turbocharging, increasing output to 530 horsepower and 520 pound-feet of torque. So basically, it sounds like the current, 520-hp 911 Turbo will become the next Carrera S.
What does that mean for Porsche's traditional high-performance models? Well, it's a safe bet that the Turbo, Turbo S and eventual GT2 will be producing seriously huge power figures. Based on pure speculation, we wouldn't be shocked to see a 600-hp Turbo, with the S and GT2 increasing output markedly from there.
