The track-focused RS model features a carbon-fiber rear wing and wider quarter panels when compared to the standard 997 GT3. This example is finished in black with orange accents and features bi-xenon headlights, headlight washers, fog lights, and center-exit exhaust outlets. Chips and imperfections are noted on the rear fenders and front bumper cover.
The 19″ orange-finished alloy wheels are mounted with Bridgestone Potenza tires measuring 235/35 up front and 305/30 at the rear. Braking is handled by red Porsche-branded six-piston front and four-piston rear calipers over 13.8″ rotors. The car features a MacPherson strut front suspension with a multi-link LSA rear setup as well as front and rear stabilizer bars. A brake fluid flush was performed in June 2022.
The cabin features hard-back sport seats upholstered in black leather and Alcantara joined by a color-coordinated dash, door panels, and carpets. Porsche-branded floor mats line the footwells, and additional appointments include aluminum pedal covers, Porsche Communication Management, the Chrono Package Plus, navigation, automatic climate control, and cruise control.
An Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel frames a central GT3-branded tachometer with an 8,400-rpm redline, a 225-mph speedometer, and gauges for coolant temperature, oil temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 12k miles.
The 3.6-liter Mezger flat-six features VarioCam variable valve timing as well as titanium connecting rods and dry-sump lubrication. It was factory rated at 415 horsepower and 299 lb-ft of torque. An oil change was performed in June 2022, and the results of a DME report are presented in the gallery below.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle and a limited-slip differential. Additional photos of the underside are provided in the gallery.
