To Be OFFERED AT AUCTION WITHOUT RESERVE at RM Sothebys' Paris event, 4 - 5 February 2025.
- The 541st out of 600 examples of the ultimate incarnation of the 997-type Porsche 911
- Gained 200 cc over the already critically acclaimed GT3 RS to create a 4-litre Mezger engine delivering 493 horsepower via a six-speed manual gearbox
- Finished in Carrara White with matching 19-inch, centre-locking wheels; interior is trimmed in black leather featuring black and red Alcantara accents
Please note this car is titled as 2012.
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.
