Porsche’s success with the four-wheel-drive 961 led to all-wheel drive being banned by most sanctioning bodies in the Nineties. This presented a problem for Porsche, but the solution was the rear-wheel-drive GT2.

Porsche created the GT2 to get around bans on all-wheel drive by racing sanctioning bodies. Eliminating all-wheel drive also made the GT2 significantly lighter than the Turbo. The car for sale has a Polar Silver exterior with a black-and-gray two-tone interior.

Its twin-turbocharged 3.6-litre six-cylinder engine makes 430 horses and 619Nm of torque and it is mated to a six-speed manual transmission. In its heyday it could do 100kph from rest in less than 4.0 seconds and had a top speed of 305kph.

The cabin gets a two-tone black-and-grey finish while some of its factory options include air-conditioning, electric windows, front airbags, and a tinted top windscreen.

The lightweight black leather bucket seats with grey inserts look very inviting and if you want this rare Porsche with only 30,113km on the clock, you better get bidding....
