The Car: the new Porsche 911 GT2 RS.
The GT2 RS is making its world debut at the Moscow Auto Show on August 25th.
The weight: 3,021 lb in road trim with all fluids on board.
The future top GT model shows as the absolute high point in the 911 range as the fastest and most powerful sports car ever built in the history of Porsche. With power up by 90 hp and weight down by 154 lb, the new 911 GT2 RS has a power-to-weight ratio of just 4.9 lb per horsepower, by far the best power/weight ratio in its class. Clearly, these are the supreme components for an ultra-high-performance sports car with supreme agility, truly remarkable performance, and of course excellent Porsche Intelligence Performance.
The 3.6 liter six-cylinder boxer engine powered by two turbochargers is made with variable turbine geometry that is exclusive to Porsche. Equally supreme stopping power is standard on this ultra-high-performance sports car that comes from PCCB composite ceramic brakes. Appropriate longitudinal and crosswise dynamics are ensured by the sporting RS arrangement of the springs, Porsche Adaptive Suspension Management, anti-roll bars, as well as the engine mounts and PSM Porsche Stability Management.
The interior also exudes the finesse of sporting performance in nearly every detail, featuring lightweight bucket seats made of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic in carbon surface finish and lightweight door panels with door opening straps. The basic interior color is black, contrasting attractively with features such as the seat centre sections and the roof lining as well as segments on the steering wheel rim. The gearshift and handbrake lever are both finished in a red hot alcantara.
Limited to just 500 units, the 911 GT2 RS will be available in Europe from September 2010, in the USA from October 2010.
