Supplied new to Porsche Slovenia in July 2009, this is a very early C11 Austrian-spec car. It's finished in metallic black with titanium grey wheels and the all-important Clubsport package. The 997 is a particularly pretty generation of 911, and the GT3 unlike its more aggressive RS sibling offers a level of discretion and restraint. From front to back, the exterior is in excellent condition. The paintwork retains a deep shine, that accentuates the styling and aerodynamic features like the rear wing and bumper vents. The wheels, which are wrapped in a suitably sticky set of Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres are free from any nasty curbing or damage. The intent behind this car's specification is clear. Halogen headlamps were chosen over xenon units to save weight, while safety features like the six-point harness and roll cage add back some mass. That's balanced by the foldable Carrera GT-style bucket seats, keeping the car razor-sharp yet usable. That combination, courtesy of the Clubsport package, has inspired a generation of enthusiasts seeking the best of both worlds: bucket seats and a roll cage, but also carpets, air conditioning and even sat-nav. This car is equipped with the Sport Chrono Plus package, featuring a black-dial stopwatch, black roll cage, Porsche's PCM3 radio system and cloth bucket seats. Despite their track-focused nature, the folding buckets are surprisingly comfortable and, more importantly, keep you firmly supported when you're attacking the Flugplatz. Despite originally being supplied to Slovenia, the car quickly made its way back to Germany where it remained until being imported into the UK in 2020. Throughout its life and despite its remarkably low mileage it has been maintained to an incredibly high standard either within the Porsche network or with specialists. In late 2021, the car was unfortunately involved in a collision caused by a careless driver, resulting in damage to the off-side. It was swiftly taken to the experts at RPM Technik, where it was meticulously measured against factory specifications to identify any compromised components. Following a thorough strip-down and inspection, the front subframe, off-side front suspension, wheel bearing, bumper, bonnet, and both front and rear wheels were replaced, along with various ancillary components such as the undertray. Only genuine Porsche parts were used throughout the repairs. Once the paintwork was completed, PPF film was applied to ensure long-lasting protection.
