2023 Porsche 911 GT3 RS Tribute to Carrera RS 2.7 is here at last
Porsche teased an RS-themed 911 special edition at last year's Monterey Car Week, then showed what the coupe would look like in October. The real Weissach deal is finally here, apaying homage to the 1973 911 Carrera RS 2.7 that's conquered tracks and bank accounts since its creation. Media got to spend time with the coupe in Southern California, the wider public will get eyes on it at the 12 Hours of Sebring the weekend of March 15-18. Forget about ordering one unless you live in the U.
The donor car is a 911 GT3 RS with the Weissach Package, which adds the lightness of carbon fiber components like the hood, engine cover, and anti-roll bars, plus magnesium wheels. The tribute part comes in the Python Green accents that call back to the Viper Green schemes available on the original. Serpentine touches grace the mirror caps, side graphics, wheel center caps and valve stem caps,"RS" wing logo, illuminated door sills, and center console.
Deliveries to those who qualify and have given Porsche $314,000 for the privilege, before options, begin in a few weeks. This is certain to be a limited edition, but Porsche hasn't said how limited. If history's a guide, back in the 1970s,it couldn't sell the 500 units of the RS 2.7 needed for homologation, so it was foisting them on company executives to count as sales. Two weeks after the car's debut at the Paris Motor Show, the whole run was sold.
