1992 Porsche 911 Carrera RS
German-market 964-generation 911 Carrera RS, rare in the United States – Thoroughly and correctly restored by Porsche Classic factory restoration in Atlanta, Georgia – Refinished in its original shade of Polar Silver Metallic with a full PPF treatment over a Black leather interior – Sold on a North Carolina salvage title following its extensive photo-documented restoration

Chassis No. WP0ZZZ96ZNS490514 – Engine No. 62N80968

Produced only for the 1992 model year, this left-hand-drive, German-delivery example is one of 1,992 Carrera RS models built for the RoW (Rest of World) market. As such, it weighs approximately 271 pounds less than the U.S.-market RS America and nearly 300 pounds less than the standard 964-generation 911 Carrera Coupe. This was achieved by sacrificing numerous driver aids and creature comforts in the name of performance, which included removing the insulation, sound proofing, power accessories, power steering, the stereo, and interior door handles. The front hood was made of aluminum, the chassis was seam welded, the side windows were made of thinner glass, and its 17-inch Cup wheels were made of magnesium, all together creating a more visceral and responsive 911 than anything seen stateside.

The vehicle in detail

Presented in its original shade of Polar Silver Metallic, this highly sought-after Carrera RS left the Porsche factory in November 1991. The accompanying VINAnalytics report shows its first owner acquired the car in June 1992. Its CARFAX Vehicle History Report reveals it was brought to the United States following its 25-year exclusion by at least January 2024 with first registration noted in the state of Maryland. Just a few months later in July, CARFAX noted “minor damage” to the right rear and two months later a comment that the car is a “total loss vehicle.” The contradiction between the two statements was in fact due to the temporary lack of available parts (out of production) and it was necessary to declare the car as a “total loss.” This is further demonstrated by Porsche Classic repair invoices and images of the mostly superficial damage, which are on file and available for review.

Hagerty Insurance obtained ownership of the Carrera RS through the insurance claim process, and due its rarity and motorsport heritage, embarked on a nine-month restoration collaboration with Porsche Classic Factory Restoration based on the grounds of Porsche Cars North America in Atlanta, Georgia.

Invoices from Porsche Classic total just over $70,000 for the work completed by factory trained restoration specialists using, naturally, all factory supplied parts. The $23,677 parts total included a new windshield, rear Magnesium “Cup” wheel (the last one on the shelf according to the restoration team), rear suspension components, oil tank, rear quarter panel and door shell, rocker trim, and more. After the RS’s body and suspension were repaired, laser checked, and aligned, the car was given a partial respray of Polar Silver Metallic and a full PPF treatment.

Completed in May 2025, just in time for Broad Arrow’s Monterey Jet Center Auction, the RS is resplendent following its photo-documented restoration. After adding a few kilometers to the odometer, a Broad Arrow Car Specialist felt the car “feels and reacts as it should, sounds perfect, and goes like hell!” Quite the ringing endorsement. While this Carrera RS carries a salvage title, it must be said it was due to temporary parts supply circumstances and with just under 35,000 kilometers, recent work from Porsche Classic Factory Restoration Atlanta totaling over $70,000, and stout Porsche construction, this Carrera RS is sure to offer many more guilt free miles on the road and track.
