click above image to view updated high-res gallery of 2008 Porsche 911 GT2
We thought we had our fill of the 2008 Porsche 911 GT2 when we caught it in Frankfurt ahead of the car's official unveiling. Our live pics, as good as they are, don't do the amped-up 911 Turbo variant justice. How does one capture 530 HP and a 204 MPH top speed in pictures? Click on the gallery below that contains 34 new images to find out. Back in the '80s, these pics would have plastered our bedroom walls. Today, they're our new desktop wallpaper. Enjoy.

Would look a lot better in my driveway.

Wow. Simply stunning!

1920x1200 pictures would be a blessing... It's so damn hard to find good desktop pictures for my monitor.
CoffeeJones @ Oct 2nd 2007 11:23AM
there are a number of 1900x1200 on the GT2 microsite

So planted, so composed, so proportionate, so unobtrusively obnoxious. The GT2, GT3, Turbo, and Targa 4S series cars are truly wrongfully wicked types of automobiles. There occur times when I run out of superlatives to apply to certain cars, and this qualifies as one of those times.

IDK, but I think the dark and beautifully lit pictures from the GT2 minisite should be included. Those are absolutely stunning. And fbxcore, I'm pretty sure they have 1920x1200 shots there.

Awesome. Can't think of many other ways to put it.

That truly is a sublime automobile. It's the apotheosis of a future classic.
If god existed, He would drive this car.
Zach @ Oct 2nd 2007 1:47AM
cars like this make me believe there is a God.
and he loves the internal combustion engine.

In before the Z06 fanboys start whining.

Congratulations. I now have to explain to my boss why I suddenly snorted coffee out my nose while (supposedly) working on my TPS report.

Sounds like baiting to me...
About the GT2, beautiful & impressive car, but I'm not sure about that wing.
