Porsche 911 GT2: The Porsche 911 GT2 is a high-performance sports car built by the German manufacturer Porsche from 1993 to 1998, 2001 to 2005, 2007 to 2012, and then since 2018 (as the "GT2 RS").  It was based on the 911 Turbo, and uses a similar twin-turbocharged engine, but features numerous upgrades, including engine upgrades, larger brakes, and stiffer suspension calibration.  The GT2 is significantly lighter than the Turbo due to its use of rear-wheel-drive instead of all-wheel-drive, and the lightening or removal of interior components.  As a result, the GT2 is the most expensive and the highest trim level within the 911 lineup.

The book "Porsche 993 - Essential Companion" refers to the 993 as the "King of Porsche," and it is generally acknowledged as "The purists' Holy Grail."
