The car costs 3.88 crore and gets 700hp.

The 911 GT2 RS is scheduled to arrive in July 2018. The car was officially revealed about a year ago at the Goodwood Festival of Speed and it is powered by a 3.8-litre, flat-six, twin-turbocharged engine that is shared with the 911 Turbo. The engine in this version makes a whopping 700hp and 750Nm and is mated to a ZF-sourced seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, which sends power to the rear wheels only.

Weight-saving tweaks, such as a carbon-fibre bonnet, front wings, exterior mirror housings and air duct surrounds, and a titanium exhaust system have helped make this car quicker. It also has a magnesium roof as standard. Porsche also offers a Weissach Package to reduce the overall weight by another 30kg.

This is the quickest-accelerating Porsche and it only takes a claimed 2.8sec to get to 100kph and it currently is the fastest production car around the Nürburgring, with a time of 6:47.30.

Porsche’s website states that the price of the 911 GT2 RS is Rs 3.88 crore (ex-showroom, India).
