Porsche 911 GT2 RS, User Handbook Manual

|

The standard could hardly  
have been set any higher: the 
911 GT2. The aim: to surpass it. 
The  method: Porsche Intelligent 
 Performance. The result: the  
new 911 GT2 RS.

Not a muscle too few. Not a gram 
too much. No more than 500 
 available. Never was there a more 
powerful series produced by 
 Porsche.

Were there any reservations? 
 Negative thoughts? Doubt? Not in 
the slightest. Fear? No chance.  
Our engineers experienced just 
one feeling: awe. Before they 
 started. And definitely after they 
had finished.

A feeling that goes with you.  
Every metre, every second. 

Technology.

Some figures cause astonishment, 
others create awe. The increased 
power of the 3.6-litre Boxer  
engine means that it now delivers 
456 kW (620 hp) and maximum 
torque is 700 Nm, which is 90 hp 
and 20 Nm more than the 911 GT2. 
The 911 GT2 RS sprints from  
0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.5 
seconds. From 0 to 200 km/h  
(124 mph) in 9.8 seconds. And 
from 0 to 300 km/h (186 mph)  
in 28.9 seconds. Right up to  
330 km/h (205 mph).

The main factor responsible for 
this extra power is Porsche Intelli-
gent Performance. An efficiency-
based concept incorporated inside 
every Porsche, resulting in the 
 effective lightweight design for 
example. And the reason why  
the 911 GT2 RS is 70 kg lighter 
than the 911 GT2.

The body is 26 mm wider at the 
front, allowing a 12 mm wider toe 
angle and wider tyres. The 19-inch 
GT2 RS wheels with central locking 
device also provide exceptional 
driving dynamics. 

The ride height, camber, toe angle, 
and the stabilisers on the front and 
rear axles can be adjusted individu-
ally for the racetrack. The fact that 
the chassis is connected more 
 rigidly to the body allows for even 
more precise steering. For exact 
driving and control.

High performance demands a  
high level of safety. So the new 
911 GT2 RS has Porsche Active 
Suspension Management (PASM), 
Porsche Stability Management 
(PSM) and Porsche Ceramic 
 Composite Brakes (PCCB) fitted as 
standard. Additional brake ducts 
on the rear axle ensure that the 
brakes are effectively ventilated. 
Another standard feature is the 
Clubsport package including a roll 
cage, a six-point safety harness 
and a fire extinguisher. 

The end result: no series-produced 
Porsche has ever reached this 
 level of performance. None has 
achieved faster track times.  
None has deserved more awe.

Always there if you go to the extreme:
Awe.
