One thing to remember about the GT2 is that it just not a 2wd 996, but all together different car that looks like a 996 turbo. Not only 2wd but different cams; turbos, suspension, and transmission...

RS "Recreation"

They are asking $42K. Very nice built car and looks like a fun cruiser. It's a back dated 79SC shell that was very straight. I'm not sure how much engine work was done. Might be fun to run around...

RS Replica value

This is a very well built car and is very very nice. The seller wants upper $30K +(my guess $38-39K). While I would be very interested in the upper $20's it gets pretty hard do justify a lot of $$...
