Porsche 964 RS Lightweight

This exceptional 911 (964) RS is a left hand drive version with a 5-speed manual gearbox and is presented in Guards Red with triple tone leather bucket seats.

The lightweight, rear wheel drive RS is based on the ‘Carrera Cup’ race car with a revised version of the standard engine with power increased to 260bhp and a lightweight flywheel coupled to the G50/10 transmission with closer ratios, an asymmetrical Limited Slip Differential and steel synchromesh.

The suspension is track-orientated and offers a ride height reduced by 40mm and stiffer springs and shocks.The bonnet is aluminium to save weight, as are the magnesium wheels and even the glass is thinner in the doors and rear windows.

Inside, the focus is also firmly on weight-saving, with no power windows, no rear seats and much of the sound deadening materials removed. This is my personal car and I very rarely see examples in this exceptional condition. It feels and drives exactly like the 964 RS did as a new car. Not to be missed.

Complete with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, it has driven just 27,116 km (16,849 miles) from new in 1992.
