The result of years of testing on both the open road and in
motorsport, Porsche truly saved the best for last with their
997-generation 911 GT3 RS 4.0. Its engine was the most powerful
normally aspirated flat-six built by Porsche at the time of its
unveiling, producing 500 bhp at 8,250 rpm along with 339
foot-pounds of torque. Even though the standard GT3 RS was
certainly on a diet, Porsche managed to find a way to trim another
10 kilograms from its overall weight by fitting carbon-fibre front
fenders and trunk lid along with titanium connecting rods and
lighter interior trim, making it truly a thrill to drive.
Delivered new to Monaco, where it has resided from new with its
original owner, this 911 GT3 RS 4.0 is finished in white with the
standard livery of grey stripes offset by the optional white
wheels. Inside, this 911 GT3 RS 4.0 is trimmed strikingly in
Alcantara with red sport seat inserts, and a white-painted roll
bar, only adding to the car's sporting nature. Aside from the
leather-wrapped steering wheel, the cabin is awash in black and red
Alcantara, along with matching red seat belts and door-pulls. The
car was last serviced in July of 2019 at 4,843 km and invoices for
this work are included in the history file.
Having only been driven just under 5,100 km from new, the car
presents in wonderful condition both inside and out. Undoubtedly
the most desirable iteration of the 997-generation of Porsche's
911, the GT3 RS 4.0 is a landmark automobile and provides a truly
unrivaled driving experience. Sure to be collectible for years to
come, this example is ready to be driven and enjoyed as its
manufacturers intended.
