Touareg 2.5 Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 (edited) Messaggio Aggiornato al 12/11/2011 km77 Press Release : Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0: Biggest 911 Engine Ever Offered Limited-edition car is packed with motorsport technology ATLANTA – April 28, 2011 --- The 911 GT3 RS, one of Porsche's most popular, coveted and successful track-inspired production cars, has been given a final, thrilling injection of thoroughbred motorsport technology resulting in the 2011 Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0. Limited to 600 vehicles worldwide, the 911 GT3 RS 4.0 brings together in a sports car the attributes that have made the Porsche 911 GT3 a consistent winner on the race track. The motorsport-derived 4.0-liter engine, already the highest displacement 911 engine ever, also features the highest per-liter output -- 125 horsepower (hp) per liter -- from a naturally aspirated Porsche flat-six engine. The engine uses forged pistons, the connecting rods are fashioned from titanium, and the crankshaft has been lifted unchanged from the 911 GT3 RSR race car. It achieves its maximum power of 500 hp at 8,250 rpm. Maximum torque of 339 ft/lbs is reached at 5,750 rpm. The 911 GT3 RS 4.0 offers truly impressive performance, lapping the famed Nürburgring-Nordschleife in 7 minutes and 27 seconds. Available exclusively with a six-speed manual transmission, the 911 GT3 RS 4.0 sprints from 0 to 60 mph in only 3.8 seconds, and with its gearing designed for the race circuit it reaches the 124 mph mark on the race track in under 12 seconds. The 911 GT3 RS 4.0's outstanding driving dynamics come from numerous, meticulously coordinated details. In addition to using suspension components typically encountered in motor racing, weight reduction is also of supreme importance. Equipped as standard with lightweight components such as light but strong carbon fiber sport bucket seats, carbon fiber front fenders and luggage compartment lid, and weight-optimized carpets, the two-seater's ready-for-action weight is just 2,998 lbs with a full fuel tank. The 911 GT3 RS 4.0's power-to-weight ratio is 5.99 lbs/hp. This limited edition 911 is painted Carrara White as standard and emphasizes its proximity to motor racing by its dynamic appearance. Signature characteristics are the wide track, the low vehicle position, the large rear wing with side plates, central twin tailpipe, and the aerodynamically optimized body. Air deflection vanes mounted on either side of the front bumper – called 'flics' or dive planes – make their first appearance on a production Porsche. They create increased downforce on the front axle, and together with the steeply inclined rear wing, provide aerodynamics on par with its performance capabilities. As a result, at the 193 mph top track speed, aerodynamic forces exert an additional 426 lbs of downforce, thus pushing the 911 GT3 RS 4.0 onto the road. With a manufacturer's suggested retail price starting at $185,000 (excluding destination), the new Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0 goes on sale in the United States in late 2011.

poppy84 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Leaked! Sono abbastanza deluso. Quest'auto monta le teste dell'RSR quindi mi aspettavo un'estetica all'altezza (stile 993 GT), invece abbiamo semplicemente un (bellissimo) fondo di magazzino.

superkappa125 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 (edited) 'Sto Beetle RSI mi attizza. Tamarro come al solito (la GT-R in confronto è un'educanda), però è un tamarro affascinante... In pista deve essere un discreto mostro. Edited April 27, 2011 by superkappa125 La teoria è quando si conosce il funzionamento di qualcosa ma quel qualcosa non funziona. La pratica è quando tutto funziona ma non si sa come. Spesso si finisce con il coniugare la teoria con la pratica: non funziona niente e non si sa il perché.

boygrunge Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 anche a me piace molto. se devo essere sincero le uniche 911 che digerisco sono quelle truzze. se devo rimanere sul "serio" per me esiste solo Cayman.

crabble Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Secondo me bastava la striscia al centro e la scritta Porsche sull'alettone, quelle strisce con le scritte laterali (sulle porte), sono troppo, non mi piacciono neanche i flaps anteriori ma vabbè… Per il resto mi piace, però preferisco il paraurti anteriori della Turbo-GT2, intendo la fascia dove ci sono i led e frecce laterali: www.giuliomagnifico.it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISO-8707 Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Niente carboceramici? Oppure per motivi estetici hanno messo pinze rosse in luogo delle gialle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppy84 Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Niente carboceramici? Oppure per motivi estetici hanno messo pinze rosse in luogo delle gialle. Hai i dischi in acciaio da 380 mm come l'RS 3.8 e la GT3 e la Porsche Cup (che monta anche pastiglie racing e dischi di spessore maggiore). I carboceramici sono optional a 9000 euri e non servono ad una sega, se non a spendere dieci volte di più per cambiare un disco in caso di consumo o rottura.

Pesando la metà (quindi minori masse non sospese --> miglioramento della dinamica) e "teoricamente" durando molto di più sotto stress, non dovrebbero essere un optional quasi irrinunciabile se la si vuole "spremere" dove è lecito? Poi nn penso che sia un problema cambiare una coppia di dischi (per quanto possano costare come ricambio...) dopo aver versato 200k €....
