The Porsche 911 GT2 (993) is the first-generation model of the Porsche 911 GT2. Production began in 1993 and ceased in 1998.
The 993 GT2 was conceived as a homologation model for the GT2 class but was produced in limited numbers. Technically, it is based on the 993 Turbo but utilises a rear-wheel drive drivetrain. The car shares the interior of the Carrera RS.
Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed
The 993 GT2 appears in Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed as a Race Class vehicle in the Modern Era category. It is barely faster than its turbocharged counterpart and cannot be modified.
Need for Speed: The Run
The 993 GT2 was one of the very first cars to be announced for Need for Speed: The Run.
The stock 993 GT2, Dr. Pepper Signature Edition and the RWB 993 GT2 are Tier 4 cars and share identical performance alongside a Challenging handling rating.
The 993 GT2 has an acceleration which is comparable to the other Tier 4 Porsches in the game. Its top speed is lower than that of the Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0 (997) and the "NFS Edition" Porsche 911 Carrera S (991). The 993 GT2 is also prone to oversteer under hard cornering.
The RWB Signature Edition GT2, which strongly resembles its namesake, the RWB "Natty Dread" 993 Carrera 2 can be unlocked by achieving a gold medal in every National Park challenge.
A Dr Pepper Signature Edition 993 GT2 could be unlocked as part of a special promotion. It doesn't have any performance upgrades except for an additional 6 bhp.
A "Strade" signature edition is unlocked upon reaching Driver Level 40.
