2010 Moscow Motor Show : Porsche 911 GT2 RS Live
Moscow, land of excess? The image of Epinal Hummer or Class G-treated gold is too easy. One of the actors of the show in Moscow (25-29 August) has made the Red Square the theater of his own record: Porsche chose the Moskva to the Seine for the world premiere of the 911 GT2 RS.
Speaking of theater, it is far from the Bolshoi. The auto show in Moscow prefers heavy artillery salvos that capers ballets of Tchaikovsky. Last week we announced the XJ Sentinel armored version of the great Jaguar. In another style of gigantism, the first public appearance of the Porsche 911 GT2 RS was held there. In other words, the most powerful Porsche drive ever produced.
With two turbos blowing now at 1.6 bar and a redesigned electronically controlled, power 3.6-liter flat-6 increased to 620 bhp, an increase of 90 hp. The weight, down 70 hp, amounted to 1370 kg. Short calculation: 2.21 kg / hp ratio is one of the most outstanding. Polycarbonate side windows, doors and bonnet relieved of rigor ... For the extremists, there is the possibility to move some equipment at the door (air conditioning, sound system). Side chassis, suspensions have new aluminum components. Another sign is right about his claims of potential track riders: sway bars, camber and ride height are adjustable to the needs of the alignment and the steering ...
In addition to being a showcase for Porsche, the GT2 RS signs the farewell to arms of "simple" GT2. Compared to this, the performances move so symbolic: 3.4 seconds for 0-100 km / h and 330 km / h peak. Last reminder, 500 copies will be made. Hence the € 239,589, battery coat, which will appear justified in the eyes of some avid collectors porschistes.
