2006 997 GT3 Cup - 2006 SPEED World Challenge GT Champion - 18.6 Hours - Excellent Condition

This car was traded into us on a GT3 RS and is by far the nicest GT3 Cup car I have ever seen. These cars are designed to be able to take a beating and most of the time they look like they have had one when they are a few years old. This GT3 Cup however was retired after winning the SPEED World Challenge campaigned by Jon Groom Racing and was driven only as a HPDE (high speed driver's education) car by an amateur driver. The car has a fresh motor, only 18.7 hours on the engine and transmission which is very low for a cup car that has not been raced since it was rebuilt. It also has a fairly new clutch that was replaced in 2010. The car comes with two sets of OEM spec three-piece BBS center-lock aluminium wheels (9J x 18) and (11J x 18). The total weight for the car is 2,513 lbs.

Just out of curiosity, how much $$

 

If you have to ask.....

 

Sorry I meant to include it - $99,900

 

That's a solid deal.

 

The GT3 Cup is all loaded up and on it's way to a forum member's home! Here are a few pics from loading it onto the transporter.

Thanks again!

 

Congrats to whoever it sold to on here.
