The Mamerow File
How a 993 GT2 found its way from a German privateer paddock to a private collection — and what its second decade has to teach us.

The 993 GT2 was conceived as a homologation special for GT1-class competition — a road car only because the rulebook required one. Porsche built fewer than 200 GT2 chassis between 1995 and 1998, and the racing variants are vanishingly rare. The Mamerow examples are rarer still.
Mamerow Racing was, for nearly two decades, one of the most consistent privateer teams in the German national championship. They campaigned a series of 993 GT2s with disciplined preparation, modest sponsorship and a quiet refusal to chase headline-grabbing results. The cars finished. The cars improved. The cars retained value.
Mamerow campaigned cars the way a marque historian writes — carefully, with footnotes, and no impulse to be loud.
This chassis carries its original Mamerow livery, its FIA paper trail, and a service log that reads like a diary. Brake fluid intervals. Engine seal dates. The exact mileage at every track day for fourteen years.
It is not the fastest 993 GT2 in private hands. It is one of the most documented. For a collector who values the story as much as the lap time, this is a different proposition than the equivalent road car — and a more interesting one.
The car is now offered through RGB Motors. Full dossier on request.
