I’ve just looked through my “ old “ copies as thought I had a duplicate ( the original I gave with the car ) but no luck so can’t help.
I’ve got a copy of my old sales invoice though so anything specific you wanted to know the price of in case it appears on that ?

Thanks Alscar, not too concerned on the pricing, but would be a nice addition if some had this along with the options list.
Is there a way of accurately finding out how many 977.2 gt3 cars were imported by porsche GB and how many of each colour etc?
Can find lots of information on US cars but very little on UK.

Agreed -which is why when I sold mine i gave the new owner both the original hardback brochure and the soft cover full options price list along with all the other paperwork I had kept since I bought it.
The answer to your question is 130 cars in total for the UK RHD market ( answer supplied to my enquiry at the time by Porsche UK) but no idea as to the colour mix I'm afraid - beyond the RB numbers obvs !
Anecdotally I do believe however that the number of PTS cars within this 130 was not huge -other than the Mint Green one which I passed once on the road in mine ( that would made a good pic ) I've not heard of many others.

The brochure has all the options I think. They’re normally available online eg at
https://auto-brochures.com/porsche.html
Thanks Arcamalpha, I’ve seen this.
I’m not sure if it includes all options / or just an over view of the most popular options?
There’s also a few other painted options ( interior ) available although some had a generic code and some not even a code.
I’ll take a look at my old invoice later and put any on you haven’t mentioned if you want.

re the thicker steering wheel..I had it on my 7.2 RS...an obscure but excellent option. Photo below. Tried to get one for my 7.1RS but they did not provide it:

Am I correct in thinking if you spec the upgraded nav you automatically get sound package plus. I’m sure that’s what our 997 s had?
Just looking at my invoice from then I’d say not - PCM was £1,945 and SPP another £ 388 unless there was an upgraded PCM package that for some reason I didn’t take.
RDMcG said:
Mine didn’t have the 12 o’ clock marker and wasn’t actually shown on the option list at all.
It was only after I was invited to the launch at the PEC where Andreas was introducing it and we had lunch that it got mentioned by him to ask for the double wrapping.
It appeared on the order form as per discussion with Andreas which I always thought very cool.
Wasn’t mentioned on the invoice.
When I’m on my laptop I’ll dig out some pictures from the sale advert.

As far as I'm aware my car has PCCM option but not the SPP.
GT4RS said:
Something tells me when you spec nav it automatically added sound package plus. I may be wrong mind.
That might well have been the case but it also would have added the price for it.

Very true.
When a 997.2 gt3 was new could it be ordered with a gt3 side decal or would have this had to be installed afterwards?

I don’t think it could at the time as far as I can recall - was 14 years ago mind so memory might have lapsed a bit !
