🐒 THIS PORSCHE 911 GT2 BLEW MY MIND! THE WIDOW MAKER

In this episode we check out the Porsche 911 GT2, similar to the 930 Widow Maker just a little bit more refined, it will still kill you mind! Big shout out to Targe Florio Cars for the opportunity! Ever wondered what a Porsche 911 sounds like? How about the GT2 sound? We capture the pure sound to give you the most immersive experience!
Unlike the 2020 911 GT2 RS, this 996 GT2 has less driver aids and is a beast to drive! Includes a cheeky Porsche 911 drift, 911 exhaust sounds, 911 review and some guy called mild John. The Porsche 911 GT2 is a high-performance sports car built by the German automobile manufacturer Porsche from 1993 to 2009, and then since 2010 as the GT2 RS.
It is based on the 911 Turbo, and uses a similar twin-turbocharged engine, but features numerous upgrades, including engine upgrades, larger brakes, and stiffer suspension calibration. The GT2 is significantly lighter than the Turbo due to its use of rear-wheel-drive instead of all-wheel-drive system and the reduction or removal of interior components. As a result, the GT2 (now GT2 RS) is the most expensive and fastest model among the 911 lineup.
In 1999, the 993 was replaced with the new 996 model. The new GT2 took two years to develop and during that time, Porsche decided to abandon the GT2 for motorsports use, instead concentrating on competing in GT3 class racing with the new naturally aspirated 911 GT3.
Developed primarily as a road car in contrast to its predecessor, the new GT2 featured a twin-turbocharged version of the GT3's 3.6 L (220 cu in) flat-six engine. It generated a maximum output of 340 kW (462 PS; 456 hp), which was later increased to 355 kW (483 PS; 476 hp). Like the 993 GT2, the body of the 996 GT2 differed significantly from those of other 996 variants; major differences included wider fenders, a more aggressively shaped nose, and a large rear wing.
According to road testing performed by Car and Driver magazine, the GT2 suffers from hardly any turbo lag. Despite a 10-millimeter reduction in ride height from the 911 Turbo, the drag coefficient is slightly higher - 0.34 Cd vs. the Turbo's 0.33 - due to the fixed rear wing.
Really hope you enjoy the video, more Monky London car reviews inbound! Cheers ML

Hey John was a good boy 🤭 much love Grant ❤️

@Quincy Jaxon yup, been using Flixzone for months myself =)
@Quincy Jaxon Definitely, been using flixzone for since december myself :D
ML reviews are back, and in one of my favourite cars🙊 Hope you like it yo, 25 mins so grab a brew and enjoy👍 Let me know what other cars you'd like to see, gonna be doing a host of different things, Japanese, German, British you name it. If you're a car enthusiast you're in for a treat. Chuck any comments below and throw me a like, much appreciated🙏 Peace ML
Still surprised you havent covered a lotus before man. Think a lot of people would be interesed in something like a k20 elise or a newer exige or something.
Monkey another belter m8 👌🏻😎 when I hear the bell I click 😁 you should try and find a vauxhall nova to review I'm sure somebody has a mad one kicking about somewhere,love them wee motors my first loves that got me into motors 👌🏻🐵
@@aminamchannel I know a guy great idea 👍
Yass monkey your the man canny wait 👌🏻🐵
The last six months I've seen a huge push from the perspective of your brand and all the background groundwork we don't see that you are clearly doing to succeed and grow this as a business. It's def paying off. Only channel I watch like this as you're just humble about it all, great talks, good work etchic, sick beats and production and when driving you know there is a time and a place for John. You clearly are appreciative for the opportunities like this but don't forget they are all things you've helped yourself create. Big respect on the push forward over covid. and don't let off the throttle now. (As an older guy, please keep pushing the middle lane/tailgating points and respectful driving)
Drove a 2001 996 Turbo a few years back. WAY quicker than the numbers would suggest. Great to see you enjoying the GT2 in this video. It bought back some memories for me!
This is definitely my favorite version of the 911 ! This GT2 and also the Turbo are absolute gems to get your hands on !! Can't believe people can dislike this, it's a true legend 🙏
a lot of people don't know that Porsche was going to put the engine in the front.
I'm so glad they stuck with their original ideas and the Porsche is what it is today because of that.
great video nice to see you back behind the camera and driving
They did indeed come stock with that roll cage 👌🏻 Unfortunately the 300 made for the US did not, a regulation prevented it from being a factory option
Production levels next level, loving the 80’s vibe at the start!!
Cheers Karl star you are ⭐
I swear to god one of The best intro ever!! And the weeknd soundtrack was just 👌
Thanks man!
Love the sound of this man glad to see your back
Cheers Leon good to be back dude
MONKY LONDON can’t wait to see what you got next to show us mate
I don't get the hate for the 996
The 996 GT2 is an amazing car one of my dream Porsches
Yeah I like em, more so over time. I think as they went away from the traditional lights really and first of the water cooled, had a lot to live up too after 993 I rekon. GT2 was honestly savage
@@monkylondon yeah I agree
@voice of reason The real reason people complained is boxter and 911 looked the same from front. Imagine paying +100k for a car and someone asked "is that the new boxter"
Thats why they changed the 911 headlights and kept the old ones on cayman and boxter.
@@DuBstep115 yeah good point tbf
@voice of reason yeah agreed always liked 997 tbh. Cheers for point lads
Been looking forward to this! good to see you back behind the camera ML!
Cheers Shaun! Hope you like it fella
@@monkylondon great video as always my man! much love yo!✌
Love this fella. Thanks for posting.
Had the pleasure of driving a 928 s2 MANUAL. 🤤 my mate still has it. Very special
If he let me drive those cars I'd sell him 50 cars a week .. Mike brewer wouldn't stand a chance against me 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Spot on ML, nothing drives quite like a 911. I'd love to have a blast in a GT2 after having the pleasure of caning some very memorable miles in a 996 turbo a few years back.
Nice to see monky back on the monky London channel... Dave and scouse are good but we still miss that ml magic
Yes ML tearing it up around Chichester! 💪🏼 If I see any high end sports cars drifting roundabouts down this way, I’ll guess it’s you! 😂 p.s. watchout for the mobile speed camera that often sits next to that mobile screen at 13:00 😉
Excellent review of this iconic road car some fantastic camera work. Keep up the great work.
fell in love with the 996 gt2 after watching the footage of lonmans gt2 on the gumball rallies
Yeah that was a great video! Might do a watch later haha
Me too haha.
*Glad to see you back mate. Look forward to more Monky content.*
_Stay safe_ 🤟
Cheers Alex enjoy dude, new vid up soon
Although not quite as exclusive as a GT2, today I picked up a low mile 996 Turbo in the same colour. Such a great car to drive.
Lovely car. That’s polar silver and think the leather winged seats and stainless roll bar are later additions to a comfort model. A club sport was nomex fabric winged seats and black cage.
I keep coming back to this to listen to the sound at 10:30 onwards. Got a 996 turbo with GT2 headers, turbos and ics and it sounds so real in this video!
Good to see you back John ! The lads who let you take the GT2 out are stars ! I got taken a spin a long time ago in a 996 GT3 - It just blew me away ! One of my fave ML videos of all time 👍
Yeah legends Targa really are, Ferrari coming up 🙊 Appreciate the kind words
brilliant edit, love the reviews. keep them coming ML
Will do thanks Ben
Love these cars. After seeing footage of rob lonman from back in 2003/2004 it just makes we want one even more. Over £100k for one of these now
What a machine, how lucky are you to get such an opportunity, you really know your stuff though (but your modest with it). These 996 Porsche's have really aged well.
Really glad you took the time to stress the importance of warming oils upto temp too before using the car hard, has to be one of the most common (and pointless) types of abuse you see on cars today. Using a car hard is fine as long as the oils are in good condition and upto temp 👍🏼
Well edited. Class vid mate.
Cheers Mickey!
Best car content on UA-cam, @monkey London and Chris Harris I always watch religiously this guy deserves all the success in the world keep up the good work man
0:01 oh my indeed, intro straight out of vice city :)
Gta ftw 💪
Absolutely top content!! Thanks for the great review of this mad classic Porsche 🤘
Yep lots of numpties on road especially on in and around lockdown. Cheers for the tips will use the slow down then burst away/pull over method. Porsche GT2 is very nice bet handling is immense.
Beautiful car. The color is called "Polar Silver Metallic" and is actually quite rare on the 996, as it was a color launched for the 993 models. By the time the 996 was in production, "Arctic Silver Metallic" was the standard and by far the most popular choice for silver.
The GT3s/GT2s never had back seats neither in comfort nor clubsport guise and a roll cage was standard on the clubsport, but the unit fitted to that particular GT2 is an aftermarket piece, supplied by Porsche Tequipment.
Amazing machine! Content quality is next level mate at the minute mate 👊👍
Dream car right there, always loved them since watching the old Gumball 3000 videos
That little drift off the roundabout on the intro you see the snap back on that mother!! Nicely held boss 👊🤙😎
John mate 😂 Peace Matt legend sir
I am not the biggest 911 fan but the moment I saw that mad man in 996 gt2 in the gumball 3000 I was hocked. Loved that
Rob Kenworthy Legend !
Completely agree with your statement on tailgaters👍🏻👍🏻 awesome video like always mate enjoy every video you upload, sick car as well.
Mr ML, you rock! Good to see reviews coming back, been an avid viewer since day 1, got some mad cars for you to review if your interested! Crazy engine swaps, and skid cars... Stay safe man :)
I've got to say what a awesome review of the gt2 I thought it was very interesting of the knowledge that you had with a Porsche GT2👍👍.
And I cannot wait for the next 1 Toby keep up the good work and be safe 👍👍
Thanks John, always loved them. I get a few things wrong but try my best. Kind sir you are, and best name 🙏
We all get things wrong we ent always right but I did enjoy that episode
And yes it's the best name lol 👍👍
That viper!!!🥵🥵🥵 though when you did mention the escort my heart skipped a beat 😍😂 great video once again bud!👏
Awesome video as normal loved the tour then some turbo action 👍
I remember going on a family holiday as a kid, suddenly being passed by a lorry filled with 996 GT2's and GT3's. I was so impressed as a 6-year old, what a stunning example this is!
Fucking love it bro !!! Banging intro
Absolutely lush GT2 🤤 big fan and very jealous! What an honour to drive such a lovely car! 👍🏼
I’m pretty sure it’s not too bad to handle for said “John” 😂. It’s the middle life crisis chaps that need to be wary.
So true lol
This is awesome and driving it in my area this is sick!
You deserve it bro you work dam hard to bring us content, enjoy driving it you'll get one one day know doubt and add to the collection Lol! keep safe ML
What a nice looking ride 😍 never even been in a Porsche. Couldn't imagine the feel. And i would love to know what you think of the frs/brz/gt86.
Yeah we'll get some more on 🙂 Thanks John
Fantastic. 2/3 the price of a 993 Turbo. I have a stock 996 Turbo which is insane value for money. I’ve tricked mine to 520 bhp
Another cracking video ML! Great content as always 👍👍
John pulled over in lay by letting car cool off before returning it,having a quick go on a fat one whilst chilling in lay by 👍🏻😂😂🙈😜🤘🔥🔥
Awesome video ML, seriously mega 911, big thank you 😎
I think the color is arctic silver and the bucket seats and the roll cage came with the car if you got the rennsport package
I used to have this idea that all Porsche's were the same but as I've matured I realise what a fantastic manufacturer Porsche is. My realistic grail sports car is a 2009+ 987 Cayman S, midship singing 3.4 flat 6 producing 320bhp with an LSD for around £15'000 yes please!
Love the ‘special’ car reviews. We all live a dug but seeing stuff that’s off the cuff is superb!
Savage sending that sideways, fair play 😍👌
GT2RS, no other words required! Brilliant video and content 👏
Where did you see an RS?
Not into drifting Monky but love cars and your chanel. Boom 👊🏼
This ❤️
My 2002 gt tdi golf has 6 gears, air con and heated seats 😉 all standard optional extras
0:03 JOHN! lol
Miami nights for the win
Cracking intro, fair do’s!!
Much love Greg
Such a chooon as always! 🤙🤙
🤝🤝🙂
Monky Life 😎
Production, editing, camera work, music and content is just on another level. Nobody even comes close. 👑👑👑 Loving it Monkey 👌👌👌
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh finally Monky's back! Nice mate!
Great video mate, when will we see the s15 back in action?
Needs about 15k spending, do me best like x
You must have big plans. I love a s15 and the way you had yours set up is my favourite Savage kit on car with dmax lights the lot.
Yeeessssssss, been waiting on this. Gaff to meself and a couple of drinks I'm turning the volume up
Wicked Chris what I'm here for sir
@@monkylondon you should hold an open day at targa in July, invite any followers interested in buying a motor. They had a massive range of stock. I seen everything from a sick fiesta st to an nsx there.
Amazing car!
This is what a respectable Monky looks like 😲
More John Action!!( 🤪
Mild John confirmed, S15 is where it gets messy haha
Amazing intro with the music good job nom nom
Cheers Neil star bro
Loving the 80s vibes!!
Didn't see much of johnny boy did he catch the corona? 😂
Great video non the less bud!
Great vid ml and nice for the pink ford to get a mention lol 🤣👍
She's coming back soon bud
Decent video 👍🏼 Looking forward to updates on the escort, Have you still got the calibra?
Yeah bud
Youl need to get a car tour done at somepoint show what you’ve still got I’ve lost track these days, Civic and e30 still kicking about?
@@polski7267 yeah man deffo a good shout
Awesome video! What’s your favourite Porsche? Mine is the 993 GT2
Same, we can be good friends 😂❤️
Orrrrr 964 3.6 Turbo, tuff one
Amazing beast. Also you said air cooled, but the 996 was the first gen of water cooled. Part of the reason they got a lot of hate, minus the headlights.
Good ur back, I know JZ is almost a ting of the past but not for me. Need a video with u driving a Car with JZ engine
instagram.com/p/CBDNS2xgEoj/?igshid=ry1ic5xblhxv 1.5jz 😉 loading
A black 996 GT2 is a thing of menace
Video starts at 7:25
Big tings Monky 😎✌️
When will we get a face reveal of John? Seems a pretty cool guy!
In moderation haha
Where you getting your hair cut, could do with mine doing 😆
Tapered Men's Grooming Worcester Park 💪❤️
I finally got rid of my lockdown lid, last weekend, feel human again now!
What a car, this car has been well driven :)
Cheers bud awesome machines!
996 are cool loving your content and the Porsche is sick 🔥
Remember a customer of mine had a 996turbo with all the goodness of the x50 pack from factory was savage
love porsches, still to try and drive one, 964 and 993 is by far my favourites
I get numpties sit on my rear bumper and I only drive a 1.6 MGF, its not even a fast car. I guess lots people don't really know much about them or even know what they are. I personally like the 996 era of porsche especially the GT2, SICK!
Wicked video from start to finish
I'm sure he had a giulia N ring Edition .. If he still has it mate you need to get init there fucking amazing !
Had one of them porsche gt2’s on a poster on my wall as kid haha, same colour and everything! Can’t wait to see more of that Viper aswell! That’s another widow maker that😎
- *What is the name of the music soundtrack in the intro?*
- *What is the name of the music at **10:00** ?*
I love how you just slide a gt2 out of a roundabout purely savage!
Wing mirror is same as a Boxster 986 , £30 on eBay.
One of my favourite 911s despite being a 996
For me I'd love a 993 GT2 haha, who wouldn't 🙊
Them seats. Get me a towel.
You could get a really nice 996 for 12 grand 8 years ago. Back then It was a toss up between an E46 M3 and a Porsche. Did not have the khuna's so went beemer (much newer car). I always wonder what might of been 🤔. Anyways Will is a nutter, doubt the vast majority of us have got enough cash to buy one of the pictures in the showroom so props to him letting you out in some of his metal. John was well behaved, But then you would be in 100k car 👍. Top content
Manual an all mate...🤙
The rears should be 325s. Same twin and 4S.
@ 23:08 monky even took his glasses off to pay respect to the 911.you don't see that often
viper action up next?hope you survive this one haha
