The new Porsche 911 GT3 RS, painted in iconic Guards Red, rolls onto Vietnam’s streets with a price tag of 17.7 billion VND. Discover specs, options, and how to order now!
When the sleek silhouette of the new Porsche 911 GT3 RS turned up in Ho Chi Minh City, enthusiasts instantly recognized a masterpiece of racing heritage blended with street‑legal flair. Finished in the brand’s classic Guards Red, the car is the third GT3 RS to be officially registered in Vietnam and carries a headline‑grabbing price of roughly 17.7 billion VND (about $760,000).
Launch and Arrival
First unveiled in August 2022, the 992‑generation 911 GT3 RS quickly became a collector’s favorite thanks to its aggressive aerodynamics and motorsport DNA drawn from the 911 GT3 R and 911 RSR race cars. After appearing in the 2024 Gumball 3000 supercar rally, the model finally received Vietnamese license plates at the start of 2026.
Design Highlights
The GT3 RS is unmistakable: a wide‑track body, sharp carbon‑fiber splitters, and a rear wing that screams downforce. Porsche eliminated the front luggage compartment, replacing it with a high‑tech cooling system borrowed from its racing siblings. Wheels are a lightweight, multi‑spoke alloy set – 20‑inch at the front and 21‑inch at the rear – with finish options in Pyro Red, Satin Black or Indigo Blue, each adding roughly 40 million VND to the base price.
The owner of the Guards Red example opted for the traditional Porsche racing decal that has adorned the GT3 RS since 2003, cementing its status as a true track‑ready machine.
Performance Figures
Under the hood sits a naturally‑aspirated 4.0‑litre flat‑six boxer engine delivering 525 hp and 465 Nm of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via Porsche’s seven‑speed PDK dual‑clutch gearbox. Acceleration is blistering: 0‑100 km/h (0‑62 mph) in just 3.2 seconds, with a top speed of 296 km/h (184 mph). In Nürburgring testing, the GT3 RS posted a lap time of 6:44.848, making it the third quickest production car on the legendary circuit at the time.
Advanced aerodynamics generate up to 409 kg of downforce at 200 km/h, climbing to an astonishing 860 kg at 285 km/h. An electrically‑actuated rear wing—similar in concept to Formula 1 DRS—allows drivers to fine‑tune downforce on the fly.
Interior and Technology
The cabin is a driver‑focused cockpit. Standard carbon‑fiber bucket seats are complemented by optional 18‑way electrically adjustable Adaptive Sports seats. A steering wheel fitted with rotary switches lets the driver select drive mode, adjust electronic balance, and manage traction settings without taking their hands off the wheel.
While the Weissach Package—a $2.7 billion VND upgrade featuring extra carbon‑fiber exterior parts and chassis bracing—is available for the GT3 RS, the currently spotted Vietnamese example does not carry this option.
Pricing and Options in Vietnam
Officially listed at 17.69 billion VND, the GT3 RS can easily cross the 20 billion VND threshold when fully equipped with optional paint finishes, premium wheels, and the Weissach Package. This makes it one of the most expensive road‑legal sports cars on the Vietnamese market.
Availability
According to Znews research, by the end of January 2026 at least four Porsche 911 GT3 RS (992.1) units have been imported into Vietnam: one in black, two in white, and the striking Guards Red that captured headlines.
For collectors and performance enthusiasts, the arrival of the GT3 RS signals a new era of ultra‑high‑performance vehicles available in Southeast Asia. With its race‑born engineering, bespoke styling, and formidable price tag, the car embodies Porsche’s commitment to delivering a pure, exhilarating driving experience on both track and city streets.
