In technical parlance, the new Porsche 911 GT3 R rennsport improves on a number of its donor car’s key metrics, including aerodynamics and the power emitted from its 4.2-litre flat-six combustion engine. In layman’s parlance, this thing is off the scale. Porsche describes the new car as “probably the hottest track tool Porsche has ever made available as a collectors’ item”.
Of course it’s a collector’s item. An £820k plaything for 77 of Porsche’s very luckiest – and track savvy – customers. What they get for their money isn’t just raw numbers, though we’ll come to those in a tick, but also history.
The rennsport’s apparently a ‘logical’ successor to the GT2 RS-based 935 from a few years back, and uses the already potent 911 GT3 R customer racecar as a base. Aside from the bonnet and the roof, every other body panel on the limited edition has been changed over a GT3 R.
