Porsche has unveiled an updated version of its 911 GT3 RSR racecar, which will participate in next year’s GT Championship. The German firm's engineers modified the exhaust system and air intake housing, with the 4.0-liter boxer powerplant delivering 5 more horsepower, for a total of 455 hp at 7,800 rpm. While the power increase isn't much of an improvement, Porsche claims that the six-cylinder unit is better adapted to different fuel grades and its driveability is superior compared to the outgoing model.
The car also comes with a modified bodykit with a new front lip providing higher downforce, while the rear wing’s position has changed. In addition, there are larger front wheels and new LED tail lamps, borrowed from road-legal 911s.
The base price for the 911 GT3 RSR has been set at €410,000 (US $542,430), plus VAT. All the aforementioned modifications are available as a kit for the 2010 season cars.
