The beginning of the 996 series can be traced all the way back to the early 1990s when designer, Pinky Lai penned its design under the guises of Porsches head of design, Harm Lagaay. At the time, Porsche was struggling financially as takeover rumors began to circulate. Although the manufacturer had immense success and achieved many historical milestones with the air-cooled engine, emissions regulations and manufacturing efficiency deemed the air-cooled units obsolete. It was time for Porsche to succumb to the pressure of external factors. Not only did they need a completely redesigned power unit, they also needed a redesign from an aesthetics standpoint in order to save the brand, and kick start its move into the next millennium. The new design carried nothing from the 933 series besides some reengineered suspension components and 6-speed transmission. At the heart of this new venture, the M96 engine was born making it Porsches first water-cooled unit. The M96 engine was generally intended for spirited driving not all-out track racing, its modified wet-sump engine was marketed as an integrated dry sump unit. Being that it was Porsches first foray into water-cooled design, it had issues including the infamous intermediate shaft bearing issue, which plagued the 996 series with the exception of the Turbo, GT3 and GT2 models. These models have the now famous, Hans Mezger designed M96 engines which are true dry-sump units derived from the monstrous, Le Mans winning GT1. Hans Mezger had been designing race engines for Porsche since the 1960s so the manufacture trusted Mezgers ability to perform for yet another generation of Porsche cars. The Mezger engines were truly bulletproof engines developed and tested under the harshest of conditions. In fact, Porsche still uses Mezger technology on their 991 platform.

Perhaps one of the most notorious, and legendary road cars ever built was the GT2 class, homologation special- The twin-turbo charged 993 GT2. It was the most powerful iteration of the 993 road going variants and Porsche carried its extraordinary status on to the 996 generation. Of course, the GT2 was fitted with the Mezger M96/70 (and later the M96/70S engine for MK II variants) and featured many additional aerodynamic pieces including a larger rear spoiler, front air vents, and carbon ceramic brakes came standard. This rear wheel drive monster had very limited drivers aids, and made 462 hp launching the GT2 to a 3.9 second 0-60 mph time. Worldwide production numbers were limited to just 1,248 units through 2002-2005. Only 317 were produced for the North American market making these cars highly collectible now not only because of their production numbers but also due to their staggering performance figures. The years of 2004 and 2005 introduced the MK II which bumped power to 483 hp and added GT3 style wheels which is the most obvious way to tell the difference between a MK I and MK II GT2. Only 29 MK II GT2s were produced for the US Market, which bring us to our subject car below.
