Porsche 911 was introduced in 1988 and the company kept it rolling out till 2005. Porsche 996 is nothing but an internal designation used for the Porsche 911. When the 996 was unveiled, it came up with a great amount of changes to the Carrera model that came to the market back in 1963. A glaring change was that the 996 model used a water cooled engine mechanism, replacing the previously used air-cooled engine mechanism. Immense amount of changes were done to internal mechanism of the engine, to meet the stringent noise and pollution regulations. The 996 platform paved the way for two variants of lightweight GTs, GT2 and GT3. The GT2 model was custom designed to save weight and be power efficient. The aerodynamics and the transmission system of the car were redesigned to maximize its efficiency on road. Altogether Porsche 996 GT2 is considered yet another design and engineering feat by the legendary German automaker, the Porsche engineers and designers have gone to great lengths to make it a true sports car that performs in style and with luxury.
