This GT3 stands out for its exceptional level of originality. The car was recently repainted solely to enhance its cosmetic appearance and paint finish. The repaint was not carried out as part of any accident repair, the vehicle has never suffered accident damage, and the car was not completely dismantled during the process.
Powered by the legendary naturally aspirated 3.6-litre Mezger engine, coupled to a six-speed manual gearbox and a lightweight chassis, this GT3 delivers the pure and analogue driving experience that has become increasingly rare in today's automotive world.

A true collector's piece for the enthusiast seeking authenticity, exclusivity and long-term appreciation potential.
