SOLD – 2011 Porsche 911 GT3 RS 3.8 - Sold in Florida
Pagani of Nashville is proud to have represented this 2011 Porsche 911 GT3 RS 3.8 finished in Grey Black with Guards Red accents, an exceptionally well-preserved example of one of the most celebrated modern analog 911s ever produced.
Showing fewer than 10,000 miles from new, this unmodified two-owner example represents the final evolution of the legendary Mezger-powered GT3 RS generation. Combining lightweight construction, motorsport-derived engineering, and a naturally aspirated high-revving flat-six paired exclusively with a 6-speed manual transmission, the 997.2 GT3 RS remains one of the purest driver-focused Porsche models of the modern era.
About the Porsche 911 GT3 RS 3.8
The 997.2 GT3 RS occupies a special place in Porsche history as one of the last truly analog GT cars developed before the widespread introduction of turbocharging and increasing electronic intervention. Built as a road-legal extension of Porsche’s motorsport program, the GT3 RS 3.8 was engineered to deliver maximum driver engagement while remaining remarkably usable on the street.
Power comes from Porsche’s legendary naturally aspirated 3.8-liter Mezger flat-six producing 450 horsepower with an 8,500 RPM redline. Widely regarded as one of the greatest engines Porsche has ever produced, the Mezger platform is celebrated for its motorsport pedigree, durability, and visceral driving experience.
Compared to the standard GT3, the RS features wider bodywork, revised aerodynamics, lightweight components, more aggressive suspension geometry, RS-specific gearing, and additional weight reduction measures designed to sharpen both performance and feedback.
About This Example
Finished in Grey Black with Guards Red accents, this example presents in one of the most iconic and desirable specifications offered on the 997.2 GT3 RS. Approximately 228 examples were delivered to North America in this color and graphics combination, making it especially sought after among collectors and enthusiasts.
With fewer than 10,000 miles, this GT3 RS remains remarkably original and factory correct throughout. According to previous ownership history, the vehicle has not been tracked and remains unmodified, preserving the integrity and driving character that make the 997.2 RS so highly regarded today.
The interior combines purposeful motorsport design with desirable comfort-oriented factory options including Adaptive Sport Seats, heated seats, PCM navigation, and Sport Chrono, creating a specification equally suited for spirited driving and long-distance usability.
Performance & Engineering
The GT3 RS 3.8 utilizes lightweight construction, revised aerodynamics, center-lock wheels, and motorsport-derived suspension tuning to deliver extraordinary precision and communication behind the wheel. Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB) provide exceptional stopping power while reducing unsprung mass for improved handling response.
Unlike many modern performance cars, the 997.2 GT3 RS relies on hydraulic steering, a naturally aspirated powerband, and a traditional manual transmission to create an experience centered entirely around driver connection and mechanical feedback.
For many enthusiasts, it represents the final expression of Porsche’s analog GT-car philosophy.
Factory Options & Key Features
