Only a 6-hour drive from Montreal, anyone have a climate control trailer?

Presented in minimally-used and striking condition, and offered with its original owner’s handbooks and tool kit, this rare contemporary supercar allows the US-based Porsche enthusiast to add an important model to the stable, as the 993 GT2 was not officially exported to the US when new. Believed to be one of just 17 examples delivered new to Japan, this GT2 resided there until being purchased and imported in 2013 by a well-known Porsche enthusiast. In April 2014, the Porsche was sold to its current steward, a respected East Coast collector known for the fastidious care and presentation of his vehicles. Since its arrival in the US, the GT2 has been kept in a climate-controlled environment and driven sparingly. Significantly, this rare Porsche is currently registered in New York state and accompanied by paperwork showing proper importation under the NHTSA’s Show and Display exemption, which allows historically or technologically signifiant automobiles to be imported into the US.
Depending on the source, as few as 57 strasse or street, versions of the GT2 were produced in all, in addition to 116 competition cars. The rarity of these machines, coupled with the overall acceptance of special 993 variants as true collectibles, has catapulted the original GT2 to the top of many collectors’ must-have lists. As a result of its limited production and genuine competition heritage, the 993 GT2 is widely considered among the top-tier supercars of the 1990s – held in the same regard as its contemporary rivals, the Ferrari F50 and McLaren F1.
