Now available for auction is this 2018 Porsche 991.2 GT3 Touring finished in Paint to Sample Olive Green over a Black leather interior with houndstooth cloth seat centers. Perhaps the most sought-after model of the 991 generation, the GT3 Touring combines modern track-oriented performance with understated styling and a visceral 6-speed manual transmission. This 2018 example was originally delivered through a Porsche dealer in Texas and was configured with many desirable factory options including lightweight carbon-fiber bucket seats, an extended-range fuel tank, Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB), the Front Axle Lift System, carbon-fiber interior trim, and Custom Tailoring. Up to date on all scheduled service and currently under the care of its third owner, this beautifully appointed GT3 Touring is now being offered for auction out of North Carolina with just over 13k miles showing on the odometer.
At an additional cost of $12,830, this Touring was ordered in the rare Paint to Sample Color of Olive Green, an attractive nonmetallic shade originally offered on the 911SC and 928 models of the late 1970s. It also features Porsche script graphics along both sides as well as LED headlights and the Touring Package in Black. The car is said to have never seen track use and the finish has been preserved under clear paint protection film over the entire front end, A-pillars, door panels, and the leading edge of the roof. A Gtechniq ceramic coating has also been professionally applied over the full exterior within the last two months. Additional images are provided in the photo gallery along with a clean CARFAX report. The factory 20” GT3 center-lock wheels are finished in Silver and dressed in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires that were reportedly mounted within the last 200 miles.
Inside, the Black leather interior features optional full carbon bucket seats with Porsche crested headrests, houndstooth cloth seat inserts, and houndstooth upholstery on the center armrest. Other details include optional carbon-fiber trim, the Chrono Package, and Exclusive seatbelts in Racing Yellow. The driver is also supplied with Voice Control, the Bose Surround Sound System, Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS), and the Front Axle Lift System which enables the nose of the car to be raised or lowered for extra clearance. Custom diamond-stitched floormats have been installed along with lower seat bolster covers, and the seller describes the interior to have been kept in excellent condition.
This second-generation 991 GT3 is equipped with a naturally aspirated 4.0L flat-six engine the develops as much as 500 HP while revving up to 9k-RPM. The rear wheels are driven through a 6-speed GT Sport manual transmission that provides acceleration from 0-60 MPH in approximately 3.5 seconds and a top speed of nearly 200 MPH. Rear-axle steering and PASM suspension are equipped as standard, and this example features optional Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB). The seller confirms all scheduled services to have been kept up to date and CARFAX shows a consistent history of maintenance through authorized Porsche dealers.
Accompanied by a clean title (lien), this generously configured GT3 Touring awaits its next owner.

Last chance to own this beautiful spec!! I have reduced the reserve price!! Less than 30min to go. If it doesn’t sell it will stay with me in my collection. Good Luck!!

@911guy no sir it’s not over yet
Didn't this sell yesterday?
@Kraftwerk well if it does hit the reserve and sell I am going to be a bit sad. With all the comments that have been so positive it’s encouraging. But it will be missed in the garage.
Gorgeous car and photography, I wish I could be the next care taker.
@Kraftwerk paint code is 274
It was available on Porsche cars from 1978-1980. That is what I can tell
OR...in other words what was the "sample' used in paint to sample? thanks.
Lovely. My buddy has a silver GT3 touring, it's a beautiful beast. I am happy to ave been a passenger in it. Wondering does this 'Paint to Sample' Olive Green have a paint code ? (A factory number assigned to the hue?) Love it. One of one!
@gunner69 it wasn't a negative comment. 13,000 is nothing on a car like this. but it is for the dopes who pay silly money. i still think this will break $275k at least.
@lamacan Sorry here is the link

@lamacan Leaving a car along like this one is like being married to a super model and leaving her alone for the next guy - stupid - and doesn't make anything more valuable in my opinion. Here is a little about the trip and pics of the car in the wild. If I don't win it which is likely, I hope the next person drive the hell out of it and keep records where its been unlike the person I sadly sold it to. That give the car a history that people what to be apart of. Race cars that have been crashed to bit and repaired but with a documented history of enjoyment are in big demand. If I could have a redo this would the the one. Enjoy.

if this didn't have those miles, this would no doubt be the market breaking touring. still will be extremely close.
@911guy see below. I kinda like it. I think it gives the car character and plus a memory of where the car has been. Instead of sitting in a climate controlled garage.
@gunner69 you mean you toured in it???
I hope you buy it back. Your build is my second favorite after my own.
@911guy I put the stickers on the hood. By son and I went on a 4,000 mile road trip in that car and those are little memories of where the car has been.
Curious if you know why someone put the travel stickers on the underside of the hood..seems like an odd thing to do to such a car.
