After years of being powered by naturally aspirated and force induced 3.6 and 3.8 litre engines, Porsche has finally moved the game up with the all new 911 GT3 RS 4.0. The 911 GT3 RS, one of Porsche's most popular, coveted and successful track-inspired production cars, has been given a final, thrilling injection of thoroughbred motorsport technology. Limited to 600 vehicles worldwide, the 911 GT3 RS 4.0 brings together in a sports car the attributes that have made the Porsche 911 GT3 a consistent winner on the race track.
Coming to the new engine, the race derived 4.0 engine, already the highest displacement 911 engine ever, also features the highest per-liter output -- 125 horsepower per liter from a naturally aspirated Porsche flat-six engine. The engine uses forged pistons, the connecting rods are fashioned from titanium, and the crankshaft has been lifted unchanged from the 911 GT3 RSR race car. It achieves its maximum power of 500 hp at 8,250 rpm. Maximum torque of 460 Nm is reached at 5,750 rpm.
If the car is special, then it has to look special as well. This limited edition 911 is painted Carrara White as standard and emphasizes its proximity to motor racing by its dynamic appearance. Setting it apart is the wide track, the low vehicle position, the large rear wing with side plates, central twin tailpipe, and the aerodynamically optimized body. Air deflection vanes mounted on either side of the front bumper called 'flics' or dive planes – make their first appearance on a production Porsche. They create increased downforce on the front axle, and together with the steeply inclined rear wing, provide aerodynamics on par with its performance capabilities. As a result, at the 308 km/h top track speed, aerodynamic forces exert an additional 194 kg of downforce, thus pushing the 911 GT3 RS 4.0 onto the road.
This is possibly the last of the GT3 till the new model comes out. However its definitely one of the best coming out of the gates of Stuttgart.
