The 911 GT2 |Chassis
The 911 GT2 runs on one-piece
19-inch GT2 wheels with anti-
theft protection and wheel
centre caps featuring the GT2
logo. The wheels are extremely
light for their size due to their
special lightweight construction.The resulting reduction in unsprung
masses improves driving dynamics
and performance. Thanks to the
generous internal diameter of the
wheel, large brakes can be fitted
on the front axle. The wheels run
flush with the exterior of the carand come with special sport tyres
as standard.
The wheel dimensions are
8.5J x 19 ET 53 with 235/35 ZR 19
tyres (front) and 12J x 19 ET 51
with 325/30 ZR 19 tyres (rear).The 19-inch sports tyres provide
a large road contact patch.
They offer greater traction
under acceleration and braking,
greater precision in both handling
and manoeuvrability, as well as
higher cornering speeds on dry
road surfaces. In short: even
greater driving pleasure. Note:
increased risk of aquaplaning due
to lower tread profile.Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM),
included as standard equipment,
provides early warning of tyre
pressure loss. The driver is
informed via the on-board com-
puter display as well as a separate
indicator light. A tyre repair system
consisting of tyre sealant and
compressor with separate tyre
pressure gauge is also standard.19-inch GT2 wheel

‘Welcome Home’ lighting.
This standard lighting function
provides comfort and safety at the
push of a button. The low-beam
headlights are automatically
illuminated when the car is locked
or unlocked using the key remote.
The lights remain illuminated for
a predefined period, lighting your
way to or from the car. This delay
is user-adjustable via Porsche
Communication Management
(PCM) on vehicles with the optional
Sport Chrono Package Plus.
ParkAssist.
This optional parking aid is auto-
matically enabled whenever you
select reverse gear. Move too
close to a stationary object and a
warning signal is emitted. Continue
to reverse and the tone increases
in frequency. The distance is
measured by ultrasonic sensors
which are neatly concealed in the
rear bumper.
Cruise control.
This convenient option has an
effective range of 30 – 240 km / h
(19 – 149 mph). The system is
operated using a switch in a
separate control stalk on the
steering column and can even
be used in first gear.
HomeLink®
(garage door opener).
This optional garage door opener
is freely programmable and inte-
grated within the cockpit. It offers
remote control for up to three
garage, gate, home lighting and/or
alarm systems and is compatiblewith almost all garage and exterior-
door systems.
Automatically dimming interior
and exterior mirrors.
An auto-dimming function is
available as an option for the
911 GT2 for interior and exterior
mirrors. The package also includes
an integrated rain sensor for the
front wiper system.
Luggage compartment.
The volume of the luggage
compartment in the 911 GT2 is
105 litres. The entire compartment
is lined with high-quality, scratch-
resistant materials. The bulkhead
panelling conceals the amplifier
of the optional BOSE
®Surround
Sound System and the DVD drive
for the optional navigation module.
The additional 205-litre rear load-
space inside the car is easily
accessible thanks to the folding
sport bucket seats.
Anti-theft protection.
The 911 GT2 has an engine
immobiliser with in-key transpon-
der as well as a powerful alarm
system featuring contact-sensitive
exterior protection and radar-
based interior surveillance as stan-
dard. The alarm system is
activated and deactivated by a
remote control function in the
ignition key.
Vehicle tracking system.
The 911 GT2 can also be equipped
with an optional factory-fitted
preparation enabling future
installation of a vehicle trackingsystem obtainable from Porsche
Tequipment. This system allows
a stolen vehicle to be traced
throughout most of Europe, and
requires the installation of a
special wiring loom and a high-
capacity battery.
Chrono Package Plus.
The optional Chrono Package Plus
combines a dash-mounted
analogue/digital timer with a range
of useful functions. Lap or journey
times can be viewed, stored and
analysed using the performance
display in PCM. The information
available includes time elapsed
and distance travelled on the cur-
rent lap, as well as the number
oflaps completed and their
respec-
tive times. You can also view the
current fastest lap and remaining
range till empty. Driving times can
be recorded for any stretch of
road, and benchmark times can be
defined. Other useful
features
include a personal
memory func-
tion, controlled via PCM, which
stores personal preferences for a
range of systems, including lights,
wipers, door locks and air condi-
tioning.
