Porsche designed this car for just the thrill of driving. It’s completely different from the GT3 RS with its big spoiler, an overly stiffened suspension and an estranged paddled gearbox that made that car a peculiar choice to many Porsche fans. The 911 R is just a plain car that will absolutely give you a very good time driving. Its body is reminiscent of the Carrera and the engine is pretty much the same from the one found inside the GT3 RS.
The Porsche 911 R is equipped with a 4-litre naturally aspirated flat-six engine paired to a six-speed manual gearbox. It’s lighter and faster with its engines pumping out 493 bhp at 8,250 rpm and 333 lb-ft at 6,250 rpm. The result? Probably the best 911 of the modern era.
This model serves as a commendable tribute and contemporary nod to the driver-centric vehicles that have defined the enduring legacy of the renowned Stuttgart marque. Unveiled at the Geneva International Motor Show in March 2016, the 911 R is a limited edition, with only 991 units produced for the 2016 model year.
