Description
Weight savings were targeted with the GT2 RS program, and Porsche fitted multiple carbon-fiber components including the hood, front fender vents, side intakes, and side mirrors. The Weissach Package reduces weight further through the use of carbon fiber for the roof panel and the anti-roll bars. Downforce is increased with a large rear wing, underbody diffuser, and a deeper front fascia, while NACA ducts in the front trunk lid aid in brake cooling. This example is finished in paint-to-sample Steel Grey and features LED headlights with Porsche Dynamic Lighting System (PDLS), fog lights, and dual exhaust outlets that exit through the rear fascia. A scrape is noted on the front spoiler.
Sea Blue 20″ and 21″ magnesium center-lock wheels are mounted with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires measuring 265/35 up front and 325/30 out back. The car is equipped with adjustable dampers and anti-roll bars, Porsche Active Suspension Management, Porsche Stability Management, and rear-axle steering. A front-axle lift system was optioned, while Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes were standard on the GT2 RS and feature yellow calipers and cross-drilled rotors.
The carbon-fiber full bucket seats are trimmed in Blue Turf leather with Crema deviated stitching that extends to the dashboard, door panels, center console, and rear tunnel. Debossed Porsche Crests adorn the headrests, while wood trim accents the cabin. The shift knob and air vent slats are finished in Crema, and Yachting Blue Alcantara lines the ceiling, pillars, and sun visors. Additional appointments include automatic climate control, cruise control, illuminated carbon-fiber door sill guards, gray door pulls and seat belts, a fire extinguisher, a Bose surround-sound system, and PCM infotainment with navigation.
The carbon-fiber-trimmed steering wheel is wrapped in Crema leather and fronts lightweight paddle shifters. Instrumentation includes a 250-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 7k-rpm redline as well as gauges for oil temperature, oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level. The optional Sport Chrono Package added a stopwatch atop the dashboard.
The car is finished in paint-to-sample Steel Grey over a Blue Turf leather interior with Crema deviated stitching ordered through Porsche’s Special Wishes program.
