The Penultimate Example

The limited production 2011 Porsche GT3 RS 4.0L - Launched in 2011 it was, quite simply, the penultimate revelation of unmatched performance and design excellence. As the final evolution of the 997 GT3, it featured the massive 4.0 Liter engine, the most powerful naturally aspirated engine offered in the RS line-up. Having refined their offering over years of GT road and race cars, Porsche culminated this series in the ultimate expression of a powerful but drivable performance car.

This very special Mezger engine shares its block, crank, and titanium rods with the track-only 911 GT3 R and RSR of that generation. Utilizing open element air filters and a slightly lower compression ratio at 12.6:1 versus 13:1 in the RS 3.8, the engine is full of trick parts that raised the bar everywhere. With a new specially cast intake manifold (that was wider with shorter runners, and thinner walls for weight reduction), less restrictive emissions legal exhaust, Variocam-Plus valve timing, and an RSR crankshaft with increased stroke dimensions, the 4.0 Liter four cam six-cylinder engine delivered a blistering 500 hp.

This particular example is one of just 141 GT3 RS 4.0 models built and delivered to North America, part of the 600 that were built globally. This car, number 332 of 600, is showing just 2,250 miles from new and is ready to join your stable now without excuse.

Warm Regards,
