New Porsche 911 GT3 RS in iconic Guards Red hits Ho Chi Minh City, priced at ~17.7 bn VND (≈$760k). Explore specs and ordering options today.
The latest generation Porsche 911 GT3 RS, unveiled in August 2022, has turned heads after its arrival in Ho Chi Minh City. Finished in the brand‑classic Guards Red and priced around 17.7 billion VND (about US$760,000), it is the third RS model confirmed on Vietnamese roads.
Design Inspired by the Track
Borrowing cues from Porsche’s racing legends – the 911 GT3 R and 911 RSR – the GT3 RS showcases a wide‑track body, aggressive air intakes and a stripped‑down front luggage compartment replaced by a high‑efficiency cooling system derived from motorsport technology.
Wheel and Finish Options
The car rides on ultra‑light, multi‑spoke alloy wheels: 20‑inch at the front and 21‑inch at the rear. Buyers can select from Pyro Red, Satin Black or Indigo Blue finishes, each adding roughly VND 40 million to the price. The current example stays true to Porsche’s heritage with the traditional Guards Red paint and a “GT3 RS” race‑stamp dating back to 2003.
Dimensions and Aerodynamics
With a footprint of 4,572 mm × 1,900 mm × 1,322 mm and a wheelbase extended to 2,457 mm, the GT3 RS is larger than the standard 911 Carrera. Its signature aerodynamic package generates up to 409 kg of downforce at 200 km/h, climbing to 860 kg at 285 km/h. An electrified active‑wing system, reminiscent of F1 DRS technology, lets the driver fine‑tune rear‑downforce on demand.
Performance Figures
Power comes from a naturally aspirated 4.0‑liter flat‑six boxer engine delivering 525 hp and 465 Nm of torque. Coupled with a seven‑speed PDK dual‑clutch gearbox and rear‑wheel drive, the GT3 RS rockets from 0–100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds and tops out at 296 km/h. In 2022, it conquered the Nürburgring Nordschleife in 6:44.848, making it the third‑fastest production car on the legendary circuit at the time.
Interior and Driver Aids
The cabin is a blend of racing ergonomics and modern tech. Standard bucket seats are carbon‑fiber‑reinforced, while an optional Adaptive Sports seat offers 18‑way electric adjustment. The steering wheel features rotary switches for driving mode, electronic balance, and traction control. Enhanced suspension, electronic stability and a dedicated rear‑axle balance bar further sharpen handling.
Pricing and Availability
In Vietnam, the base price starts at VND 17.69 billion. Fully optioned – including the coveted Weissach Package with carbon‑fiber exterior parts and additional chassis reinforcement – the price can exceed VND 20 billion. According to Znews’ research, at least four GT3 RS units (992.1 series) have been imported by the end of January 2026: one in black, two in white and the current Guards Red specimen.
For enthusiasts eager to experience this track‑derived masterpiece, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS represents the pinnacle of high‑performance engineering now available in the Vietnamese market.
