We are pleased to offer this 2011 Porsche 997.2 GT2 RS finished in Guards Red over a black and red interior trimmed in leather and Alcantara. The fastest and most powerful road-going 911 ever at the time of its debut, the GT2 RS was presented as a sendoff to the 997 generation featuring Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB), aggressive aerodynamics, and a twin-turbocharged Mezger flat-six engine sending power to the rear wheels through a traditional 6-speed manual transmission. Limited to 500 units worldwide, the GT2 RS remains one of the rarest and most sought-after Porsches of the modern era. This particular example, #337, was first registered in Texas and came optioned with a rear center console in carbon fiber, Porsche crested headrests, Sound Package Plus, and the Additional Carbon Fiber Interior Package. It has spent its life between private collections and has also been upgraded with adjustable RSS suspension links along with a set of high-flow Fabspeed sport catalysts. Well documented and accompanied by the original window sticker, car cover, manuals, and Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, this rare 997.2 GT2 RS is now being offered for auction by its seller out of Florida while showing just over 3k miles on the odometer.
This GT2 RS is finished in its debut color of Guards Red with an exposed matte carbon fiber hood as well as carbon fiber trim on the mirror caps, air ducts, and rear diffuser. The full exterior has been preserved under a layer of clear paint protection film and the seller reports no history of track use. Some minor scuff marks are noted on the lower front spoiler along with a few small imperfections in the removable paint protection film, detailed images are provided in the gallery along with paint meter readings and a clean CARFAX report. The factory 19” center-lock wheels are finished in Weiss Gold and come dressed in a set of Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires dated from 2015 with approximately 5mm tread remaining.
Inside, the cabin is trimmed in black leather with contrasting red Alcantara upholstery on the seat centers, armrests, steering wheel, shifter, brake handle, and headliner. The lightweight carbon-fiber bucket seats feature Guards Red seatbelts and Exclusive Porsche crested headrests. Other noteworthy options include an Exclusive footrest in aluminum, a rear center console in carbon fiber, the Additional Interior Carbon Fiber Package, and Sound Package Plus. The Sport Chrono Package was not equipped, therefore the dashboard is without a centrally mounted lap timer. The cabin is described to have been very well preserved with only a minor scuff mark present on the rear center console. A complete list of factory specifications is provided below:
- 490 Sound Package Plus
- 585 Cupholders
- 619 Bluetooth Phone Interface
- 810 Floor Mats in Interior Color
- 870 Universal Audio Interface
- EZD Additional Interior Carbon Pkg
- G1 Guards Red
- P12 Auto Dim Mir w/Int Rain Sensor
- XMJ Rear Center Console Carbon
- XSC Porsche Crest on Headrests
- XXZ Foot Rest Aluminum
- ZBU Audio System Package
- ZCL Central Locking Wheels
One of the last Porsche 911s to utilize the legendary Mezger engine design, the GT2 RS features a twin-turbocharged 3.6L flat-six with dry-sump lubrication, forged pistons and connecting rods, a single-mass flywheel, variable valve timing, and a lightweight titanium exhaust. As much as 620 HP stock is sent to the rear wheels by way of a 6-speed manual transmission, allowing acceleration from 0-60 MPH in approximately 3.5 seconds with a top speed over 200 MPH. The RS also comes standard with Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB), improved cooling systems, revised aerodynamics, and a lightweight design that saves 154 lbs. over the standard 997 GT2. This example has been fitted with adjustable RSS suspension links as well as a set of high-flow Fabspeed sport catalytic converters that provide increased sound and power output. A recent multipoint inspection carried out by Braman Motorcars is provided for reference in the gallery along with a DME report and some historical service records.
This sale will include a set of two keys, the original window sticker, owner's manuals, a car cover, CPO documents, a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, and a clean title. The most extreme roadgoing Porsche 911 to have been offered with a manual transmission, the 997.2 GT2 RS will remain sought-after for years to come. Do not miss your chance to add this beautifully presented Guards Red example to your collection.

@Wdn The car is fully wrapped
Often overlooked but truly one of the greats. Rumor has it that there another numbered variant coming....992 Turbo RS GT2, Rear wheel drive, and yes, yes, yes.....................MT. Probably unobtanium and very expensive.
Is the car fully wrapped or just the leading edges and nose ?

@Rick1492. I don't know which of the previous owners had this car wrapped but I do know a couple of them and know that they are collectors rather than "drivers"; hence this car has such low mileage and is in such good condition. I personally wrap all of my cars that I collect just for protection against possible rock chips from normal driving.
There are a couple of corners where the PPF is lifting. For example in picture #55 you can seen it peeling to the right of the fog light where the bumper indents inward towards the air intake. This is the same on the other side of the front bumper in the same spot as well. On the undersides of both door handles the PPF is mildly lifting as well.
Let me know if you would like any more close up pictures of anything and I'm happy to post them
@jasgor12 Thank you
Did the owner wrap everything? Are there any blemishes or corners peeling in the wrap?
What was his motivation to wrap everything if he was not going to track the car?
@Rick1492. Thank you for your question. The car is fully wrapped with paint protective film so the paint meter adds that to the thickness of the paint. The key is that the measurements are consistent throughout the body of the car. I can assure everyone that this car has had no paintwork done.
Could you please explain why the paint meter readings seem to be so high in the 10 to 12 range?
FYI - we have had seamless transactions with the seller of this beautiful 2RS. @jasgor12 has a top notch collection consisting the most desirable models. Bid with confidence.

@jasgor12 thank you sorry about that
@Wsf80 Yes, paint meter readings are posted along with a recent DME report dated November 9,2021 that was done during an inspection that I had my local Porsche dealer, Brahman Porsche in West Palm Beach, do in preparation for this auction. Omar was the head tech that went over my car and told me “it was the nicest one he’s seen in a long time”. He has offered to speak to any serious buyers should that ease their comfort level.
1 ADAM 12 ...1 ADAM 12... see the man doing 65 in a school zone.... Florida has some decent weather however the curves are missing... I like the car and it clearly checks the boxes...
