The 911 R is a formidable machine powered by the 4.0L, 500 HP engine from the 911 GT3 RS, alongside its carbon-ceramic brakes. Beyond these shared features, the two cars are vastly different. While the GT3 RS is an aerodynamically advanced extrovert, the 911 R embraces simplicity, blending understated design with thrilling performance.
Inspired by the 1967 911 R, Porsche’s first 911-based race car, the modern version follows the same formula: less weight, more power. Weighing 110 pounds less than the GT3 RS, it features a narrow-body design, lightweight materials, and a unique 6-speed manual gearbox.
Only 991 units of the 2016 Porsche 911 R were produced including this particular example currently listed for sale on PCARMARKET. This exquisite 911 R is number 275 of the 991 examples produced worldwide and shows just under 1k miles on the odometer.
Finished in White with contrasting green racing stripes and Porsche script side stripes, the car is equipped with optional painted side skirts, black LED headlights, and 20” GT3 center-lock wheels in black, paired with yellow ceramic brake calipers.
Inside, Black and Tarpan Brown leather is complemented by houndstooth seat centers, carbon-fiber accents, and silver detailing. It features full carbon-fiber bucket seats with 911R-embroidered headrests, illuminated carbon door sills, and extended leather upholstery. Modern amenities include a Sport Chrono package, Front Axle Lift System, Porsche Communication Management, and 2-zone climate control.
