Not since the venerable 1973 911 Carrera RS has such a production Porsche been available in this market. The Carrera RS was a special, lightweight 911 produced as a cross between a race car and a street vehicle.
Modifications made to the 911 GT3 RS begin with the bodywork. The rear is 1.7 inches wider than its predecessor; and based on the fuller-bodied 911 Carrera 4 models. The wider track improves directional stability and increases the potential for lateral grip. Its lightweight is achieved through the use of carbon fiber composite components.
The quick-revving nature and peak output of the Porsche 911 GT3's 3.6-liter flat-six, with the highly-tuned Boxer mill, generates 415 horsepower at 7600 RPM. | |
