Porsche Launches The 2011 GT3 RSR Evo Race Car

Porsche-911-GT3-RSR

Porsche have unveiled their latest version of the 911 GT3 RSR race car, which will compete in next year’s GT Championship.  Although the car gets an increase of only 5 horsepower over the previous model, Porsche says the car is better adapted to different fuel grades and is more drivable.  The Porsche 911 GT3 RSR’s 4.0 liter 6-cylinder boxer engine now produces 455 horsepower at 7,800 rpm.  The minor power increase comes from a tweaked engine management system, modified air intake housing, and a redesigned exhaust system.

Visually the 911 GT3 RSR gets upgraded wheels with front wheels gaining an inch in width to 12 inches wide.  The front gets a new spoiler lip for higher down force and the rear wing is also upgraded for increased down force.  The car gets upgraded tail lights with LED’s from the road-going Porsche 911’s.

The Porsche 911 GT3 RSR weighs 2,690 pounds (1,220 kilograms) and will sell for €410,000.  If you just happen to have bought the 2010 version, don’t worry all the 2011 upgrades are available for the 2010 model.

I've been writing about cars for the last 8 years, but I've loved everything with an engine since I was a kid. I'll take the sound of high revving naturally aspirated engine over music, any day! Favorite Car: Porsche Cayman GT4
