I think I've seen world numbers somewhere and thought that about 225 have been built in toto. Regardless of the specific number those "level" of production hardly merits the "production" label. Porsche is doing more than 35,000 units a year, so the five year production rate has been under 20 basis points (0.2%) a year. That's about a third of the 911 Targa production... I also think that the GT2 and any subsequent 2 wheel drive turbo will be seen as the spiritual heir and possibly last in the long line of Porsche Turbos. The 4 wheel drvie variants are pure GT cars compared to the 2 wheel drive heritage, regardless of speed comparisons. A quick drive is an epiphany. So, I have to think the GT2 is the real keeper of the 996 generation for sure and possibly an even more notable car as time passes and no more rear drive turbos are made. (They are not going to make any car with this level of sales that they aren't racing.) That's my 20 cents. Gordon
