Porsche has come up with its most powerful racing version of the ever-green 911: the GT3 RSR.

This RSR version of the 911 coupé packs a 465bhp non-turbo variation of the classic ‘boxer’ flat-six engine.

To cope with the power of this engine, Porsche has used the gearbox from its RS Spyder Le Mans racer.

That’s just as well as the GT3 RSR is set to become a feature of grids at the French endurance race as private teams will be able to buy this car.

The price is 349,800 Euros plus the VAT of whichever country the owner lives in.

Only 35 GT3 RSRs will be made and all have a unique package of aerodynamic aids to make them as fast and stable as possible.

There are ‘flicks’ on the front spoiler to push the car to the ground, while the rear wing is carried over from the previous GT3 model.

The suspension has been heavily uprated from the road-going 911’s and the brakes have also been increased in size to cope.
