The 2023 Porsche 911 GT3 RS ramps up the track cred of the already incredible GT3, with more power, lighter weight, and a lot more downforce.
As with previous RS models, the 992-generation GT3 RS adds downforce and reduces weight to improve lap times. Engineers incorporated lessons learned from the, including a single large, angled radiator in the car's nose, replacing the previous three-radiator setup. This frees up space for more elaborate aero elements on the sides of the car, Porsche said in a press release.
All of these items combine to produce more than 900 lb of downforce at 124 mph, twice that of the 991.2 GT3 RS and three times as much as the current 992 GT3, Porsche claims. The automaker says the new GT3 RS can also generate 1,895 lb of downforce—equivalent to the curb weight of a 1956 Porsche 356 A—at 177 mph.
