Description from the seller
GENERAL:
Presented in 1999, the Porsche 911 GT3 (996.1 generation) was homologated to allow Porsche to compete in GT3 racing. This first series is notable for incorporating the legendary Mezger 3.6-liter liquid-cooled boxer engine (code G-M96/76), designed by the renowned engineer Hans Mezger and directly based on the block of the Le Mans-winning 911 GT1 prototype. This unit, registered in 1999, corresponds to the sought-after Clubsport version of the first series. It has only 58,743 km on the odometer and retains its track- and road-focused configuration.
BODYWORK AND PAINT:
Exterior paint in metallic silver/gray finish. The vehicle is equipped with the fixed rear wing characteristic of the GT3, specific bumper and side skirts. The wheels are removable multi-hole rims with red brake calipers. Front tires measuring 225/40ZR18 and rear tires 285/30ZR18 (Hankook Ventus S1 evo³).
MECHANICS:
Equipped with the naturally aspirated 6-cylinder 3,600 cc boxer engine (type G-M96/76 “Mezger”), delivering 360 hp (265 kW) at 7,200 rpm and a maximum torque of 370 Nm, reaching a redline of 7,800 rpm. It delivers 0–100 km/h in 4.8 seconds and a top speed of 302 km/h. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels through a 6-speed manual gearbox. It comes with a maintenance book, although not all service entries have been stamped at a Porsche dealer or workshop. Currently it has all services and maintenance up to date, including the MOT (ITV). All four tires are in good condition, the brake pads are also in good condition, and the battery is new.
INTERIOR:
The black interior includes the Clubsport package with Recaro racing bucket seats with red harnesses, as well as a roll cage installed at the rear. It has a fire extinguisher mounted in the passenger footwell, a three-spoke leather steering wheel, a leather insert with the “GT3” insignia on the handbrake lever, and door panels upholstered in black leather.
DOCUMENTATION:
It has a Spanish technical sheet and Spanish registration permit, both original documents.
PICK-UP:
The vehicle can be viewed and collected in Rellinars, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. Transport/shipping costs, change of ownership, export procedures and the Certificate of Conformity (COC) are not included in the bid unless stated otherwise.
OTHER INFORMATION:
It is recommended to view the vehicle before bidding to avoid future disappointments. To arrange an appointment or for more information, please contact Catawiki.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
