Porsche 997 GT3 RS 4.0

Het voertuig in detail

The 997.2-generation GT3 RS was already the darling of the automotive press. But before the model and enduring “Mezger” engine bowed out to be replaced by the 991-type, Porsche increased the capacity of the famed motor by 200 cc and installed the crankshaft from its RSR race car to create the exquisite 4.0. Delivering 493 horsepower via an engaging six-speed manual transmission, this last hurrah remains for many the peak of the legendary 911.
Offered here is the 541st example from the limited run of 600 cars. It holds a 21 December 2011 date of production before being registered for the first time the following month. This GT3 RS 4.0 was subsequently bought by The Curated Collection, a collector of many significant track-focused 911s, in late October 2016 via August SA of Lasne in Belgium. According to the purchase invoice, it was then noted as having covered 9,800 kilometres.
Eight years later, the car displays 10,094 kilometres at the time of cataloguing, while it is accompanied by owner’s guides and invoices detailing a May 2022 service completed by Kronos Porsche of Louvain-la-Neuve.
One of the all-time great versions of one of the all-time great sports cars, the opportunity to purchase this GT3 RS 4.0 is not to be missed.
