DasNews #2



Porsche has unveiled yet another 911 variant, the 911 GT3 RS. The 3.8 liter six now puts out 450 horsepower, 15 more than the “normal” GT3. The RS comes with all kinds of goodies, such as Dynamic Engine Mounts which change can the stiffness of the engine mounts based on the environment. The varied stiffness and damping rates should, according to Porsche, improve handling under “lively” conditions. Another interesting bit is the option of a lithium-ion battery that cuts weight by more that 22 pounds. The 911 GT3 RS is track ready and will be available in the spring of 2010 for $132,800.
