Some cars are refined and understated and others are bold, eye-catching and made to be seen. This stunning 1996 Porsche 993 GT2R – available to buy from German luxury car specialists, Schaltkulisse – definitely falls into the latter category. Incredibly striking, this glorious-looking machine is one of a mere 78 examples of the 993 GT2R and is offered in immaculate condition with under 6000km on the odometer.
This fantastic 1996 Porsche 993 GT2R from Schaltkulisse was originally sold through the Japanese exotic car dealer Art Sports, the Porsche’s first private owner was Seigo Tanabe. Tanabe is the proprietor of Shelby Asia Inc., a company based in Yokohama, Japan, that serves as an authorised importer of Shelby American and high-performance cars. If you’re looking to get your hands on one of the most accomplished Porsches on the market right now, this is up there with the best of them.
While under his care, the GT2R was never entered in competitive races; instead, it was occasionally utilised for private track events. The car was subsequently sold to its first American collector in 2013, where it became part of a private collection featuring a road-going 993 GT2 and other notable Porsches. Other than its display at Rennsport Reunion V in September 2015, the GT2R had not been showcased or actively raced on the track.
Aligned with its minimal usage, the odometer registered just 5,381 km in 2022. In that same year, the car changed ownership again, passing to another discerning collector who has maintained its impeccable condition. This owner has also entrusted the car to a reputable Porsche racing team for ongoing maintenance which is why it is presented in such pristine condition. Currently, the odometer reads just 5,386 km, reflecting the exceptional, show-quality condition one would anticipate from such a meticulously cared-for, low-mileage GT2R.
