In its exterior styling, the new Porsche 911 GT2 RS stands out clearly from the 911 GT2 through the use of carbon-fibre-reinforced (CFR) components in distinctive matt-black surface finish. At the front, the new, wider 911 GT2-style light-alloy wheels with centre locking are shrouded by flared wheel arches. "GT2 RS" model designations give further differentiation on the doors and rear engine cover. The upgraded front spoiler lip and the rear spoiler lip are also made of CFR and display a surface carbon finish. The rear spoiler lip is now 10 millimetres higher to ensure the right aerodynamic precision, as well as extra downforce.

From behind the wheel of the Porsche 911 GT2 RS, the flair of sporting performance continues. Featuring lightweight bucket seats made of carbon-fibre-reinforced plastic - again in carbon surface finish - and lightweight interior door panels with door opening straps, the high octane ambience is sustained. The basic interior colour is black, contrasting attractively with red alcantara upholstery on the seat centre sections and the roof lining as well as segments on the steering wheel rim, gearshift and handbrake lever.

Limited to just 500 units worldwide, the Porsche 911 GT2 RS will be available in the UK from September 2010 priced from £164,107. Further specifications and technical details will be confirmed nearer to launch.

Fitted to every Porsche 911 GT2 RS is a Porsche Vehicle Tracking System (VTS), a sophisticated vehicle security package approved to Thatcham Category 5 standard, and customers will also be able to explore the potential of their new car by participating in a complimentary course at the Porsche Experience Centre, Silverstone.

Masyadong mahal! Pero is it fast enough to beat the Lexus LFA?!

Its not just fast enough, it's actually faster... and at an estimated price of $245K, its $130K cheaper than the LFA.

Its also reported to have a 'Ring time of 7min 18 sec!

[speed unlimited]

One of the factor that its fast acceleration because of its light body and earodynamic design.

One of the factor that its fast acceleration because of its light body and earodynamic design.

Not only that, all the hi tech gadgets like variable vane twin turbocharger, rear engine design for maximum grip. Most powerful production car Porsche ever built.
