Porsche unveiled the new 911 GT3 RS in the Frankfurt Motor Show 09 with the interesting grey and red theme. The heart of the new RS is a naturally-aspirated 3.8 litre engine which delivers 450 horsepower, 15 more horsepower than its 911 GT3 counterpart. And it is capable of revving up even faster to its 8500 rpm redline.
Porsche claims that the power unit in the new GT3 RS remains fully suitable for everyday use. The GT3 RS is only fitted with a six-speed manual gearbox optimized for short gearshift travel, low weight and high efficiency. To enhance the level of performance throughout the entire range of engine and road speed, the transmission comes with shorter ratios than found in the 911 GT3, deliberately conceding an even higher potential top track speed.
The low ride height, extra large carbon-fiber rear wing and titanium exhaust system enhances its motorsport DNA. The 2010 911 GT3 RS goes on sale in the U.S. in 2010 and will be priced at USD132,800.
