New Porsche GT3 RS 4.0 specs


Remember when that die cast model of a yet to be announced Porsche 991 GT3 RS appeared on the internet?   Turns out it was quite accurate.

Later we learned the new über-GT3 would have a 4 liter engine and 500ish horsepower with a Magnesium roof and composite front wings.


Now, what purports to be the spec sheet for the new car was "leaked" on the internet.

Here are the main details:

4.0l, 500hp, 460 Nm.

PDK only.

Torque vectoring and "sport tuned" rear wheel steering.

9.5 x 20" and 12/5 x 21" wheels

Wider than GT3 body.

CF reinforced plastic hood and fenders, Magnesium alloy roof.

and amusing for what is, in the end,  a street car:

“PIT SPEED” in the centre console switch panel for local speed restriction at the push of a button, e.g. in the pit lane of a race circuit

Sale date in Europe March 2015.  Time to sell that kidney.
