Details

This matching-numbers 1992 Porsche 911 Carrera RS is one of 1,910 lightweights produced by the factory, not to be confused by the RS America. It's powered by its original 3.6-liter flat-6 engine that produces 260hp and 240 ft/lbs of torque. This vehicle was delivered new in Japan, as many of the factory RS versions were. Now 25 years old, it is compliant in the United States and is an example of the first RS cars to be built since the original 1973 911 Carrera RS. The engine carefully incorporates matched pistons and cylinders, Bosch electronic engine management and sequential fuel injection. Power is delivered via a single-mass sport flywheel to a G50/10 5-speed manual transmission with steel synchronizer rings, altered shift sleeves and taller first and second gears. The suspension offers a ride height reduced by 1-1/2” with stiffer McPherson struts, alloy transverse control arms and coilover shock absorbers in the front and rear. Anti-roll bars at both ends are adjustable. This lightweight is finished in its original color Rubystone Red with a black RS exterior trim, a black leatherette interior with tri-color pink and black leather-covered bucket seats. With lightweight in mind, Porsche equipped all of the RS versions with lightweight door cards with RS door pulls and lightweight glass and manual window lifts. It has 30,380 actual kilometers (mileage not indicated on the title).
