21, 22, 23 - done! Looking at the Internet homepage of the Stuttgart-based sports car manufacturer Porsche dare you not believe his eyes. In the overview of the all-time classic model 911 one finds no fewer than 23 variations. The times you have to imagine 23 different 911 (internally called 997) - all current, all brand new, all different.
They are called coupe and convertible, now with S, sometimes without, GTS, GT2, GT3, Targa, Turbo, Speedster and and and. They have 345-620 hp and cost between 85 538 and € 237 578 €. We are here now can not list all the derivatives, but since you have to necessarily look myself once
(www.porsche.com/germany/models/911). Now the grand finale of the outgoing 997-series is coming, as the first successor, Porsche code 991 stands from 15 September 2011 at the IAA in Frankfurt am Main. With 23 and final model, the GT3 RS is 4.0, for the 911 purists a real, true and ultimate Porsche on the road.
Because he has more power and less weight than its predecessor GT3. It delivers 368 kW / 500 hp, has a curb weight of 1,360 kilograms, is strictly limited to 600 copies and costs from 178 EUR 596. Since even the ever-intrepid double world rally champion Walter Röhrl into raptures: "The RS 4.0 is a true masterpiece with a lot of racing technology under the rear hood.
And a worthy descendant of the legendary RS 1973. With the 4.0 RS I needed on the Nordschleife of the Nürburgring just 7:27 minutes - a sensation, "Now, if you too are keen on this race car street legal, which is available only in white or an extra charge of € 2654 in black, we have to disappoint you.
The small scale is already sold out, and before even the first vehicle was test driven by customers or was let alone be delivered to the Porsche dealer. Who now but still want to have one that has probably enchant the lucky 600 owners purchase agreement that are supplied to the end yet, with lots of extra green pieces.
Let the technology of the 997-icing. Instead driven the 911 GT3 and GT3 RS by a 3.8-liter six-cylinder, the 4.0 RS has, indeed as the model name suggests, a four-liter boxer engine. But as was brought about? A drilling would not anyway because of the thin walls have been possible. The snazzy Porsche engineers have simply increased the stroke of the crankshaft.
The engine is the largest flat-six that Porsche has ever built in a series-Eleven. And there is really stuck in there racing genes, because the crankshaft is directly and unchanged from the six-cylinder racing car GT3 RSR. The connection to the forged pistons, titanium connecting rods take over.
The resulting 50 extra hp but make sense only if at the same time the weight is reduced. Did we all know, even the race-experienced engineers from the Porsche Development Centre in Weissach and installed in the RS 4.0 standard lightweight bucket seats, a front hood and front fenders made of carbon and a rear window made of plastic.
The result: The power to weight ratio has been pushed below the magic limit of three kilograms per hp. Exactly 2.72 kg / PS - this is a racing machine made for everyday use on public streets. The standard sprint from zero to 100 km / h is completed in just 3.9 seconds, four seconds later, already reached 160 km / h and 11.9 seconds, the pointer is already at 200 km / h.
The top speed is 310 km / h. The average consumption is 13.8 liters of Super Plus per 100 km corresponds to CO2 emissions of 326 grams per kilometer. And what drives this must-have basement now? The very first view of the usual middle-centered tachometer promises a real organ. The red speed range begins at 8400 revolutions per minute (rpm).
The maximum power of 368 kW / 500 bhp at 8,250 rev / min. And up to 8500 rpm overall the engine turns with the infernal sound, then uses the limiter. Timo Bernhard, LeMans winner and Porsche factory driver added: "The timing of this dream engine is extremely speed-stressed and out the top, he exploded." Yes, because as soon as we sit behind the anthracite Alcantara steering wheel with the red center stripe, we must firmly on the gas and rubber, because the sports bucket seats and a typical boxer sound almost animate, the super sports car to demand anything.
When accelerating from a standing one feels like a jet pilot, so one of the thrust pressed into the seats. Each of the many curves of the Swabian Alb takes the rear-wheel drive as if on rails. And we should accelerate it out a little too early from the curve, save one, the electronic driving safety helpers when they are not, as a full time professional Röhrl, off at the start, once all.
