Vehicle Description
Chassis No. WP0ZZZ96ZNS490751
Produced only for the 1992 model year, this left-hand-drive,
French-delivery example is one of 1,992 Carrera RS models built for
the RoW (Rest of World) market. As such, it weighs approximately
271 pounds less than the U.S.-market RS America and nearly 300
pounds less than the standard 964-generation Carrera Coupe. This
was achieved by sacrificing all driver aids and creature comforts
in the name of weight savings, which included removing the
insulation, sound proofing, power accessories, power steering, the
stereo, and interior door handles. The front lid was made of
aluminum, the chassis was seam welded, the side windows were made
of thinner glass, and the 17-inch Cup wheels were made of
magnesium, all together transforming the RS into a more visceral
and responsive 911.
Imported to the United States in September 2023, this Guards Red
Carrera RS has covered just under 60,000 kilometers (37,050 miles)
from new and is offered with a number of tasteful upgrades. Under
previous ownership, the air-cooled "M64/03" flat-six was enlarged
to displace 3.8 liters and equipped with sport cams by noted UK
Porsche specialist Neil Bainbridge in 2017. The consignor also
reports that the "G50/10" transmission was rebuilt under previous
ownership and that a recent service included replacing the valve
cover gaskets, spark plugs, fan belt, a brake fluid flush, an oil
change, and more. This RS additionally benefits from a complete
header-back Cargraphic exhaust system, bolt-in roll cage, and
single-piece Black leather-trimmed Recaro bucket seats featuring
tricolor Grey inserts - further enhancing its already impressive
track-focused performance.
Presented in its stunning original Guards Red finish as verified by
recent paint meter readings, this highly sought-after 911 would be
ideal for a Porsche enthusiast seeking to experience one of the
most exciting lightweight, track-ready variants of the 964
generation.
