The new 911 GT2 RS is simply the most powerful 911 ever built by Porsche – with the performance level of a super sports car.

Its design combines the aerodynamic requirements of optimum downforce and maximum air supply. Its consistent lightweight construction makes it a pure athlete. Its racing chassis with excellent cornering stability gives the new 911 GT2 RS those crucial additional seconds. And its 3.8-litre, six-cylinder, twin-turbo engine producing 515 kW (700 hp) lends it sufficient authority to lead the field.

The powerful air intakes of the aerodynamically shaped front apron ensure optimum cooling. The additional air outlet at the front of the front lid assists the airflow of the central radiator, while providing aerodynamic downforce on the front axle by deflecting the airflow. But it’s the wide, rear spoiler lip that makes the biggest contribution to downforce. All air vents are protected by titanium-coloured air intake grilles.

Motorsport technology is also present in the front wheel arch ventilation on the wings, where carbon slats provide efficient ventilation. This reduces the excess pressure produced by the rotating wheels and thus the downforce. This so-called louvre – coincidentally? – resembles the gills of a shark.

A highly functional detail: two vents on the front lid. These so-called NACA air intakes are already used for the interior ventilation of the 911 GT3 Cup cars. On the 911 GT2 RS, it’s the first time they have been used to ventilate the braking system of a series-production Porsche, without reducing the drag coefficient. Their shape was developed by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), the predecessor of the NASA space agency.

Distinguishing features for ultimate performance: the extremely large side air intakes for the intercooling of the new 911 GT2 RS. The sideskirts are also wider than those of the previous model, resulting in a larger underbody area and therefore increased downforce.

The new 911 GT2 RS is based on the extra-wide body of the 911 Turbo. Its full contours are instantly noticeable at the rear, where the low-profile, tinted LED rear lights underline its appeal.

The fixed rear wing in carbon-weave finish makes its own contribution to the overall impression of sporty performance. The wing uprights are produced from forged aluminium; the new side plates painted in the exterior colour. A horizontal exclamation mark, if you will.

The two ram-air scoops on the boot lid – the ram-air collectors – are also made of carbon and supply the engine with combustion air. The rear panels with large exhaust apertures are specific to the 911 GT2 RS. At the rear of the underbody, four fins increase the aerodynamic effect of the diffuser.

Perhaps the most striking detail of the new rear panels are the tailpipe trims of the free-flow exhaust system, which produces the characteristically throaty sound of the 911 GT2 RS. Technically functional and visually impressive: the catalytic converters, which light up red at high engine speeds and loads, and are visible through the open flaps – to anyone who manages to keep up with them at least.

Weissach package

The new 911 GT2 RS is a high-performance beast, which takes its driver’s breath away. And yet our developers have further increased the intensity, sheer presence and uniqueness of this exceptional athlete with the optional Weissach package.

The name alone creates a bond. Because ever since the Weissach package was first offered in a similar form for the Porsche 918 Spyder, it has stood for extremely lightweight construction. And for maximum proximity to motorsport.

Visual appearance and lightweight construction form a real synthesis, with the particular focus on saving weight. The Weissach package will reduce the weight of your vehicle by almost 30 kg compared with a 911 GT2 RS fitted with the Club Sport Package. For the first time in a series-produced car, the stabilisers on the front and rear axles are made of carbon, as are their coupling rods – for outstanding performance.

A visual distinguishing feature of the Weissach package is the central decorative strip in vehicle colour on the carbon-weave finished front lid and roof. It certainly lends the 911 GT2 RS its distinctive appearance. A highly visible, unyielding feature is the ‘PORSCHE’ logo on the rear wing.

From lightweight plastic to lightweight metal. The magnesium wheels painted in white gold make the new 911 GT2 RS fitted with the Weissach package approximately 11.5 kg lighter – and also enhance its visual appearance. A double victory, so to speak.

The interior is also lightweight: the attached roll cage is made from titanium and is approximately 12 kg lighter than the steel roll cage supplied with the optional Club Sport Package. The ultra-light shift paddles and steering wheel trim are made with a carbon-weave finish.
