The 2016 Porsche 911 GT3 RS is often regarded as one of the best road-legal Porsche 911s of its time. Building on the success of the GT3, it features a naturally aspirated 4.0L DOHC flat-6 engine producing 500 HP and 338 lb-ft of torque.
Its striking design includes a large rear wing, bold graphics, and wide track, making it look as aggressive as it performs. While its 0-60 mph time of 3 seconds is impressive, the GT3 RS truly shines on the track. It’s equipped with stiff springs, solid mounts, and various manually adjustable settings to fine-tune its performance.
This race-ready setup is further enhanced by advanced technology like rear-wheel steering and an electronically locking differential, allowing it to conquer the Nürburgring in a blistering 6:56.4, even faster than the Porsche 918. Despite its track focus, the GT3 RS remains road-friendly, offering thrilling performance on public roads along with a surprising level of comfort for daily driving.
By combining analog adjustments with modern tech and blending track-focused performance with everyday usability, the GT3 RS exemplifies Porsche’s ability to deliver both exceptional track prowess and road-going practicality.
