Specification

The high-performance GT2 version made a return to the 991 lineages, but now as an RS variant only with no standard variant being produced, unlike the previous generations. It was initially unveiled at the 2017 E3 along with the announcement of the Forza Motorsport 7 video game. The car was officially launched by Porsche at the 2017 Goodwood Festival of Speed along with the introduction of the 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series. The 991 GT2 RS is powered by a 3.8 L twin-turbocharged flat-6 engine that produces a maximum power of 700 PS (515 kW; 690 hp) at 7,000 rpm and 750 Nm (550 lb-ft) of torque, making it the most powerful 911 ever built. Unlike the previous GT2 versions, this car is fitted with a 7-speed PDK transmission to handle the excessive torque produced from the engine. Porsche claims that this car will accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 2.7 seconds and has a top speed of 210 mph.

The car has a roof made of magnesium, front lid, front and rear spoilers along with a boot lid made of carbon, front and rear apron made of lightweight polyurethane, rear and side windows made of polycarbonate, and features a titanium exhaust system. Porsche claims that the car will have a wet weight of 3,241 lbs.

The Weissach package option reduces the weight by 66 lbs, through the use of additional carbon-fiber and titanium parts. These include the roof, the anti-roll bars, and the coupling rods on both axles made out of carbon-fiber while the package also includes a set of light-weight magnesium wheels.
