The current GT3 RS is one of the best Porsche 911s you can buy, and is the third fastest and most powerful 911 ever made, behind the new 911 R and current Turbo/S. Under the boot is a 4.0-liter naturally aspirated flat-six churning out 500 hp and 338 ft-lbs. of torque. It can hit 60 mph from a standstill in approximately three seconds, onto a top speed of 193 mph. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a seven-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) dual-clutch. Even though the 911 GT3 RS's goal is to record better lap times and conserve weight, it's still available with air conditioning, navigation, and a stereo system, unlike the limited-edition 911 R. The trunk lid, front fenders, and engine cover are composed of carbon fiber, while the roof is a one-millimeter thick sheet of magnesium. Porsche claims that the magnesium roof is lighter than one made of aluminum by almost two and a half pounds and one made of carbon fiber by 28 ounces. If you are looking into purchasing a new 911 GT3 RS, you will have to fork over $180,595. The Porsche 911 GT3 RS is a monster on the track and street. It looks amazing and goes like stink. I'm not sure whether I would rather have this vehicle or a new 911 Turbo/S, however.
