Description
The GT2 RS is the most powerful road going Porsche ever built. Unlike the previous GT2 versions which commenced from the 993 generation in 1993, this latest car is fitted with a 7-speed PDK transmission to handle the excessive torque produced from the engine. The GT2 can accelerate from 0–100km in 2.7 seconds, and has a claimed top speed of 340 km/h (211 mph).
The car has a roof made of magnesium, front lid, front and rear wings and boot lid made of carbon-fibre, front and rear apron made of lightweight polyurethane, rear and side windows made of polycarbonate and an exhaust system made of titanium. All of these weight savings add up to a car of just 1,470 kg.
