Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2. 7 touring
RS stands for Rennsport in German, which means "racing sport." The Carrera name was reintroduced in honor of the 356 Carrera, which itself was named after Porsche's class victories at the Carrera Panamericana races in Mexico in the 1950s. The RS was developed to meet motorsport homologation requirements. Compared to a standard 911S, the Carrera 2. 7 RS featured a larger engine (2687 cc) with 210 hp (154 kW; 207 PS) and mechanical fuel injection from Bosch (Kugelfischer), a revised and stiffer suspension, a "ducktail" rear spoiler, larger brakes, wider rear wheels and fenders, and suitable for 185/ 70VR15 and 215/ 60VR15 tires front and rear. In the RS Touring version, it weighed 1, 075 kg (2, 370 lb), while in the Sport Lightweight version, it was approximately 100 kg (220 lb) lighter, thanks to the use of thinner steel for body panels and thinner glass. A total of 1, 580 examples were built, and they qualified for the FIA Group 4 class. Forty-nine Carrera RSRs were built, featuring a 2, 808 cc (2. 8-liter) engine producing 300 hp (221 kW; 296 PS).
This Porsche presented here is a recreation of the real RS. It has a 3. 0-liter engine producing 203 hp and originates from the 1978 SC. It is built on the lightweight body of an F-Type. It also features a roll cage, and the exterior is identical to an RS, including the ducktail and the red Fuchs wheels with red lettering on the sidewalls. A beautiful Carrara RS that at first glance is indistinguishable from a real one. Furthermore, the car comes with an extensive folder with invoices and history.
