The new‑generation Porsche 911 GT3 RS, priced at VND 17.7 billion, has been spotted cruising Ho Chi Minh City in iconic Guards Red – discover specs, rarity and pricing details.
Overview
Launched in August 2022, the latest‑generation Porsche 911 GT3 RS quickly became a collector’s dream, drawing design cues from the 911 GT3 R and 911 RSR race cars. After a cameo in the 2024 Gumball 3000 supercar rally, the model finally received its first Vietnamese licence plates in early 2026.
Design and Aerodynamics
The GT3 RS flaunts a wide‑body shell, aggressive cut‑aways and a front‑track luggage compartment replaced by a high‑tech cooling system borrowed from Porsche’s motorsport lineage. Standard wheels are ultra‑light aluminium forged – 20 inches up front and 21 inches at the rear – with optional finishes in Pyro Red, Satin Black or Indigo Blue adding roughly VND 40 million to the price.
Its traditional “Guards Red” paint, chosen by the current owner, is complemented by the iconic GT3 RS racing badge that has been part of the model family since 2003.
While the car benefits from a comprehensive aerodynamic package that out‑sizes the regular 911 Carrera (overall dimensions 4 572 × 1 900 × 1 322 mm, wheelbase 2 457 mm), it does not include the optional Weissach Package – a VND 2.7 billion upgrade that adds carbon‑fiber exterior pieces and additional chassis bracing.
One standout feature is the electrically actuated rear wing, reminiscent of Formula 1’s DRS system, which dynamically adjusts downforce to match driving conditions.
Performance Figures
Under the hood sits a naturally aspirated 4.0 L flat‑six boxer delivering 525 hp and 465 Nm of torque, paired with Porsche’s 7‑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.
On the Nürburgring Nordschleife the car recorded a lap time of 6 minutes 44.848 seconds, making it the third‑fastest production car on the track at the time.
Its aerodynamic kit can generate up to 409 kg of downforce at 200 km/h, climbing to a staggering 860 kg at 285 km/h, ensuring razor‑sharp grip on the road.
Interior and Technology
The cabin comes standard with carbon‑fiber bucket seats, while buyers can opt for the Adaptive Sports seats with 18‑way electric adjustment. A new steering wheel incorporates rotary switches for drive mode, electronic balance and traction control settings, offering a cockpit that feels as track‑ready as it looks.
Pricing and Availability in Vietnam
In Vietnam the Porsche 911 GT3 RS starts at VND 17.69 billion. With a full suite of options – including premium paint, carbon‑fiber trims and the Weissach Package – the price can push past the VND 20 billion mark.
Research by Znews’ “Tri Thức” team shows that by the end of January 2026, at least four GT3 RS units (992.1) have been imported: one in black, two in white and the current Guards Red example.
Why This Model Is So Rare
The GT3 RS is produced in limited numbers worldwide, and each unit is hand‑assembled at Porsche’s Leipzig plant. Its race‑derived technology, combined with a hefty price tag and optional Weissach upgrades, makes it a true exclusivity trophy for Southeast Asian enthusiasts.
With its eye‑catching red hue cruising the streets of Ho Chi Minh City, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS continues to turn heads and set a new benchmark for high‑performance supercars in Vietnam.
