“Exactly how quick are we talking? 2.8 seconds to 62mph. 211mph top speed. And with a lap time of 6min 47sec it’s quicker round the Nürburgring Nordschleife than any other production car, including the Lamborghini Huracan Performante and Porsche’s own 918 Spyder hypercar.” – CAR magazine on the Porsche 911 Type 991 GT2 RS in November 2017.
Like its legendary Carrera RS forebearer of 1973, the Porsche 911 GT2 was bred directly from motorsport. The car takes its name from the FIA’s now-defunct GT2 category of production sports car racing, for which the model was originally homologated, and has been produced in a variety of versions since its introduction in 1993 on the Type 993 platform. Even with the GT2 racing category long gone, the Porsche 911 GT2 lives on as the bad boy of the 911 range.
With 993, 996, and 997 versions of the GT2 (with the even sharper RS version coming in 2010) each one-upping the last in terms of performance, Porsche had their work cut out to turn the new 991 into a worthy successor. In June 2017 the latest iteration of the GT2 RS arrived on the Type 991 platform, officially launched at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. The 991 GT2 RS is based on the 911 Turbo, and powered by a heavily reworked version of the Turbo S’s 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six engine. Rated at a stonking 691bhp, it is the most powerful production 911 ever built. The engine was paired with a seven-speed PDK transmission, and the Turbo’s AWD system was ditched for rear-drive only, further reducing weight. Unusually, the Type 991 version has a roof made of magnesium, while the front bonnet, front/rear wings, and boot lid are carbon-fiber. Lightweight polyurethane is used for the front and rear aprons, the exhaust system is titanium, and the GT2 RS has a claimed wet weight of just 1,470kg (3,241lb). Porsche claims that the GT2 RS will accelerate from 0-97km/h (0-60mph) in 2.7 seconds on its way to a top speed of 340km/h (211mph).
Since delivery, the car has been maintained by Porsche IMSA in Caen. Service history includes: December 2020 at 1,839 km, November 2022 at 4,614 km, October 2024 at 6,049 km, and most recently March 2026 at 7,706 km, including replacement of oil, brake fluid, spark plugs, air filter, and accessory belt.
Thanks to careful maintenance and very low mileage, this 991 GT2 RS remains in excellent overall condition. Minor imperfections are documented in the condition report.
Registered in Luxembourg, it will be sold with its car cover, charging equipment, tools, harnesses, and a set of four aluminium wheels with tyres dated 2018
