The 997 GT3 model debuted in Geneva in 2006.

The engine has the same displacement as the Turbo, but is not turbocharged and uses a variable intake system. The engine is rated at 415 PS (305 kW; 409 hp) and 405 N·m (299 lb·ft). It has an 8400 rpm redline which is the same as the 612 bhp (456 kW; 620 PS), Carrera GTs.The GT3 body incorporates a special front bumper to aid cooling for the front mounted radiators as well as a split spoiler at the rear. The GT3 also includes a special rear bumper and centre tailpipes which draw heat away from the engine compartment. It is lowered, and rides on 30-series 305mm (12 in) tyres on 19in (483mm) wheels.The car weighs just 1395kg.The 997 GT3 is more driver-friendly than its predecessor, with "comfort" seats and the Porsche Communication Management system installed.

All services have been undertaken by Guildf...
