The specific RSR version included numerous technical enhancements: a dual-adjustable Bilstein suspension with adjustable rebound and compression damping, GT2-style widened fenders for wider wheels, larger 380 mm front brakes based on the GT2 model, and driver-adjustable front stabilizers. At its heart is the impressive M64/75 engine, combined with the G50/34 transmission. The 3.8-liter boxer engine was extensively reworked for racing – with lighter and more robust valves, special camshafts, optimized pistons and cylinders, and a significantly modified intake and exhaust system. The six individual throttle bodies also contributed to the power delivery. Power is transmitted via a single-mass flywheel to the exclusive G50/34 six-speed manual transmission.
Porsche produced a total of 45 units of this model: 30 in 1997 and 15 in 1998. The chassis numbers of the 1997 RSRs end in 98061 to 98090, while the vehicles built in 1998 have the final numbers 98016 to 98030.
The vehicle offered here was verifiably delivered with the crucial "20631" package, making it a genuine RSR – recognizable by its characteristic bolt-on GT2 fender flares and an output of around 350 hp, transmitted via a six-speed manual transmission.
The car with chassis number WP0ZZZ99ZWS398025 was specified in the classic Porsche color Guards Red and produced on December 10, 1997, before being delivered in March 1998. Particularly noteworthy: Zakspeed – known for its Formula 1 participation from 1985 to 1989 and for the legendary Group 5 Ford Capri – is listed as the first owner in the accompanying vehicle registration document. A copy of the original sales invoice also documents a purchase price of DM 284,625.
Zakspeed used the Porsche in numerous national racing events over three seasons before the vehicle was sold in January 2001 to club racer Eberhard Faecke, who successfully piloted the 911 until the end of 2002. In 2014, the car finally found its third owner.
Due to its intensive racing use, the vehicle was later fitted with a replacement M64/75 RSR engine with the engine number 62P85728. Today, the 911 has 39,963 kilometers on the clock and is finished in its original factory color of Guards Red and fitted with gold BBS center-lock wheels. The interior features a Recaro bucket seat and a Sabelt racing harness. An additional set of gold BBS rims is also included.
