The Porsche 911 GT3 RS pushes the limits of street-legal performance

By The streetwheelz1 Team | June 25, 2025

The Porsche 911 GT3 RS (992) is as close as you can get to a race car while still having a license plate. With a naturally aspirated 4.0L flat-six engine revving up to 9,000 rpm, it delivers an astonishing 525 PS (518 hp), producing one of the most thrilling driving experiences on the road today.

What truly sets this GT3 RS apart is its aerodynamics. The massive active DRS rear wing and aggressive air vents generate over 860 kg of downforce—more than a GT3 Cup race car—giving it extraordinary cornering ability. Porsche designed it with one goal in mind: dominating the Nürburgring. And it did just that, clocking an incredible 6:49 lap time, rivaling some of the world’s fastest hypercars.
With only 2,000–3,000 units expected to be produced, the 992 GT3 RS is significantly rarer than its predecessor. Prices start at €285,000, but demand has already driven resale values beyond €400,000, making it one of the most sought-after modern Porsches.

Seeing this engineering masterpiece in action is a reminder of why Porsche continues to set the benchmark for performance cars. It’s a machine built for the track but designed to challenge the limits of what’s possible on the road.
