For Sale at Auction: 1992 Porsche 911 in Carmel, California

Chassis No. WP0ZZZ96ZNS499100
Engine No. 62N81522

The Carrera RS N/GT was the most uncompromising road car of Porsche's 964-generation 911, conceived as a homologation special for BPR Group N and ADAC competition. Of the 2,179 Carrera RS models Porsche built for the 1992 model year, just 290 left the factory in N/GT specification, each ordered with the M003 Club Sport package that set it apart from the standard Carrera RS.

Where the base RS already discarded power steering, airbags, undercoating, and rear seats in favor of a seam-welded shell, thinner glass, an aluminum hood, and a simplified wiring loom, the N/GT went further. The coveted M003 option added a welded roll cage, an enlarged fuel tank, a fire extinguisher, a cockpit cut-off switch, and fixed-back Recaro bucket seats with Schroth six-point harnesses. The interior was stripped further still, its remaining sound insulation and carpeting removed, and the cabin floor was left as bare wooden boards. Seventeen-inch magnesium Cup wheels completed a car much closer to a road-legal Carrera Cup than a typical lightened 911.

Behind the rear axle sat the 3.6-liter M64/03 flat-six, tuned to 260 horsepower and paired with a close-ratio five-speed manual, a single-mass flywheel, and a limited-slip differential. Lowered suspension, stiffer anti-roll bars, and 911 Turbo-derived brakes sharpened a chassis already trimmed to a curb weight of about 2,734 lbs. The result earned its reputation as the true successor to the 1973 911 Carrera RS 2.7 Lightweight and it remains among the most coveted 911 variants Porsche ever produced.

One of just 290 Clubsport N/GT examples built, chassis 499100 was completed in iconic Guards Red and equipped from the factory with the welded Matter roll cage, fixed-back fiberglass competition seats, and six-point belts recorded in its German Fahrzeugbrief registration. The car was first registered on 31 December 1991, and by the mid-1990s, it was in the long-term care of Frank Henze of Trendelburg, Germany, who registered it as KS-L 911 and entrusted its maintenance to Porsche Zentrum Paderborn (formerly Thiel Sportwagen). The accompanying file documents this dedicated care in detail, beginning with service at 17,000 kilometers in August 1994, a comprehensive 20,000-km service in 1996, and a 40,000-km service in 2008 at 33,731 actual km. Routine servicing and biennial T�V and DEKRA inspections follow at regular intervals, the odometer climbing slowly to roughly 34,700 kilometers by 2015.

Recently imported to the United States from Carrera RS authority Thomas Josef Schmitz, the car is now offered from a noted Porsche collection in Maryland. On arrival, it was inspected and serviced by At Speed Motors, who noted it was a "wonderfully light car to drive and very well setup," and it subsequently passed Maryland state inspection in 2024. It remains unmodified save for the addition of a Halon fire-suppression system and presents with factory paint thickness throughout apart from the driver's-side rear quarter, where the color and texture are noted by the consigning specialist an excellent match. The car also benefits from PPF applied to the front bumper, the front portion of trunk lid, and below the headlights, safeguarding the original finish. Showing just 35,892 kilometers (�22,302 miles) at the time of cataloging, this rare Guards Red Clubsport N/GT is offered as a comprehensively documented example of Porsche's most uncompromising 964 and one of the finest roadgoing Porsches of all time.
