  • 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS at the Nürburgring

    We all know the 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS is a fast car. The 700-horsepower rating will tell you that. But is it the fastest in production car history? Possibly. Porsche has been out testing the 991-series GT2 RS at the Nürburgring, and according to enthusiast site Bridge to Gantry the car needed less than seven minutes to complete a lap. Bridge to Gantry used the T13 corner to mark the starting point of the lap and claims to have seen the bright yellow car pass the same point less than seven minutes later. Mind you, automakers use an earlier point to mark the start of a lap and the GT2 RS...

  • Porsche Design 911 GT2 RS Chronograph

    Porsche on Friday unveiled a new 911 GT2 RS. The 700-horsepower track superstar is the fastest, most powerful 911 in the nameplate’s history.

Porsche is expected to build just 1,000 examples of the car, and given the way these limited edition cars have been appreciating in value in recent years all 1,000 are almost certainly accounted for. But it’s not just a limited edition car the lucky few will be signing up...
