Porsche 996 GT3

The vehicle in detail

PORSCHE 996 GT3 360HP 2000 – The 996 GT3 was revealed at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1999. An elegant, exclusive, and radical Stuttgart model. With this version, the German brand aimed to demonstrate all the technology and knowledge of its Competition department with road homologation. Porsche decided to launch the first GT3 model to receive the “Lightweight” treatment and pure atmospheric power according to FIA regulations for the FIA ​​GT3 category. Weighing less than the standard 996, the GT3 uses wider panels and a reinforced body with an evolved aerodynamic coefficient and a rear wing designed for the more challenging corners of the Laguna Seca circuit. In terms of mechanics, it is equipped with the famous 3,600 cc “Mezger” Flat6 engine, a variant of the incredible 911 GT1 from Le Mans, delivering 360 hp at 7200 rpm and 370 Nm of torque at 5000 rpm, with titanium connecting rods and lightweight pistons. It was coupled to a six-speed manual gearbox, transferred from the competition department and not from the regular 996 range. It also has a limited-slip differential, which is useful considering the gearbox includes shorter gear ratios. It boasts an acceleration from 0-100 km/h in just 4.8 seconds and a top speed of 302 km/h. Quite rare and exclusive, as production was limited to 1,858 units.
