2000 GT3 on Autotrader?

Sadly, this listing is missing any real info or pictures.

Cars for Sale: 2000 Porsche 911 GT3 in Broomfield, CO 80020: Coupe Details - 391969795 - AutoTrader.com

Are there any problems with insuring and registering a Mk1 in the USA?

Did they make a GT3 before 2004??? Might be a race car category or a look-a-like from a standard 996. What engine...M96 or Mezger?
(can't see any photo from ad)

According to Wiki,
Quote:
Between 1999 and 2001 a total of 1,868 cars were built. Porsche made significant updates to the GT3 for 2004, the first year the car was offered to US customers.
Which is why I was asking. I am assuming that this car is grey market. Don't know if I would have trouble getting insurance and registration.

Interesting. If it is a gray market car and not federalized, then that could be a process or something that would impact registration. I'm in the insurance (although not car or property) and most companies will sell you a policy for anything...doesn't mean you can drive it though ;-))

What a shyte listing. Might be a scam. I can't imagine anyone who actually owns a gt3 would post such a poor ad.

how to double your money on a C2, call it a GT3.

What is sad, is that someone will fall for this. Of course, no bank would loan $50k on a 2000 C2.

I'm a GT3 MK1 owner, year 2000.

It's a Metzger engine type , from GT1.

360 HP , 302 KM/H .

It's really a track car , drivable on open roads without problems , but very low , and the undercar touch sometimes on bad roads.

Really a fantastic car.
