Faster than getting a coffee at Starbucks: GT2 laps the 'Ring in 7:32

From its 530 hp, low curb weight of 3,179lbs, and 204 mph top speed, the 2008 Porsche GT2 is a supercar in every sense of the word. Heck, even its €189,496 sticker places Porsche's most potent 911 in the land of the F430 and the Gallardo. Where the Ferrari and the Lamborghini can't match up against the GT2 is where it matters most, on the track. Not just any track, either. We're talking about the track by which all great sports cars are judged... the vaunted 'Ring. Porsche claims the new GT2 can lap the legendary 14-mile course in a mere 7:32, which is 10 seconds better than even the 599 GTB. That ridiculous lap time puts the GT2's average speed at over 110mph, which is just sick. Must be the Titanium exhaust. The 2008 Porsche GT2 is scheduled to appear in Frankfurt in September, and the newest 997 will hit European streets in November.

I don't recomend autopartsonlinecanada, they didn't want to issue my refund. Now I order parts from www.autopartsway.ca they have better prices!

You gotta know what you're doing to drive one of these. I got to drive a 2002 GT2 once... That car scared the sh!t out of me.

I'm not so sure i'd get this car over a 430... it just doesn't have the wow factor that the ferrari does...

Ferrari's 430 Scuderia is a promising vehicle. If I was in the market for either car, I'd go with the Scudera and I am a Porsche fanatic through and through.
