Used Porsche 911 R For Sale

The 911 series keeps adding hitters and the Porsche 911 R for sale is no exception. The 911 R’s history began in 1967 when the race car was “entered in rallies, in the Targa Florio, and in world record runs.” The new 911 R will keep the racing tradition alive and is composed of a “systematic lightweight construction” coupled with high-level performance and a focus on driver experience.

The 911 R’s focus is the track, which is exhibited in its ability to handle corners thanks to “specially tuned standard rear-axle steering which offers direct turn-in response and precise handling while maintaining a high level of stability.” The race car comes in at 3021 pounds, shaving 110 pounds off the 911 GT3 RS. This is due in part to lightweight construction which includes a bonnet and wings fashioned of carbon-fiber and rear side windows made of polycarbonate. Additionally, a rear seating area is nowhere to be found, which is another cause of shaved poundage from the overall weight of the vehicle.

When it comes to design, although Porsche had the 911 GT3 in mind, the 911 R also includes an extendable rear wing, which differs from that of the fixed rear wing of the GT3. The 911 R sits low, wide, and flat, which are characteristic 911 features. The exterior includes two racing stripes, which echo the model’s foundation in rich racing history. Interestingly, the car comes without AC or a stereo system, but Porsche will be glad to add these features at no cost. The 911 R is limited to just 991 examples so if this one is on your list, you’ll need to act quickly.
