Porsche 996 911 GT2

porsche 911 gt2, porsche, porsche 911

The Porsche 996 911 GT2 is perhaps the ultimate 911.
It's powered by a 3.6 liter flat-6 engine with twin variable geometry turbochargers.
This gives the Porsche 520 horses and 500 ft pounds of torque.
And that allows the 3,175 lb car to blast through the quarter mile at 120.6 mph in 11.9 seconds.
As far as acceleration, the GT2 can go from 0 to 60 in 3.6 seconds and 0 to 100 in 7.5 seconds, with a top speed of 204 mph.
You can pick one up for around $180,000.
The fuel economy is a really quite good for a car this quick, 15 mpg city, 22 mpg highway.

Porsche Turbo X50

cars, automobile, porsche, automobiles

The Porsche Turbo X50 is a $17,000 option available for the Porsche 996.
The Porsche 996 was a water-cooled version of the famous air-cooled Porsche 911 sports car.
The X50 package boosted the 996 turbo up to 450 horsepower and 457 pounds of torque.
That allowed the X50 to cover the quarter mile in 11.86 seconds at 119.91 mph, and gave it a 0–60 mph time of about 3.6 seconds.
There were also a few modeling changes in the 996, like wider rear wings and different front lights and bumpers from the Porsche Carrera.
The 996 also had large vents on the front bumper, that were used on the Carrera 4S and Cayenne Turbo.

PS:
We're getting rid of our 1988 Jaguar XJ6 Vanden Plas.
Dont have the time to do restoration on it.
