The 2022‑2023 Porsche 911 GT3 RS has finally turned heads on the streets of Ho Chi Minh City. Cloaked in the brand’s iconic Guards Red paint, the third‑ever RS to be registered in Vietnam carries a price tag of VND 17.69 billion (≈ US$ 730,000), placing it among the most exclusive sports cars on the local market.
Striking Design and Exclusive Trim
Inspired by Porsche’s track‑record winners – the 911 GT3 R and the historic 911 RSR – the GT3 RS sports a wider body, aggressive air intakes and a rear‑wing that mirrors Formula 1 DRS technology. The traditional rear‑boot is replaced by a high‑capacity cooling system taken straight from the race car, while the front and rear wheels feature lightweight multi‑spoke aluminum alloys (20‑inch front, 21‑inch rear). Buyers can upgrade the finish to Pyro Red, Satin Black or Indigo Blue for an extra VND 40 million.
Engine, Power and Track‑Ready Dynamics
Under the hood sits Porsche’s naturally‑aspirated 4.0‑liter flat‑six boxer engine, delivering 525 hp and 465 Nm of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a 7‑speed PDK dual‑clutch gearbox. Acceleration is blistering – 0‑100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds – and top speed hits 296 km/h. The car set a Nürburgring lap time of 6 min 44.848 sec, making it the third‑fastest production model at the time.
- Power: 525 hp (384 kW)
- Torque: 465 Nm (343 lb‑ft)
- 0‑100 km/h: 3.2 seconds
- Top speed: 296 km/h (184 mph)
- Weight‑to‑downforce: 409 kg at 200 km/h, 860 kg at 285 km/h
Interior and Driver‑Focused Technology
The cabin swaps luxury for function with carbon‑fiber bucket seats as standard, while an optional 18‑way Adaptive Sports seat adds electronic adjustments. A new steering wheel incorporates rotary switches for mode selection, electronic balance and traction control. The GT3 RS also offers a bespoke aerodynamics package – the Weissach Package – priced around VND 2.7 billion, adding carbon‑fiber exterior items and a front‑and‑rear roll‑center balancer.
Pricing, Options and Market Presence
Base price in Vietnam starts at VND 17.69 billion. With the full suite of optional equipment—including the Weissach Package, custom paint finishes and premium wheels – the total can exceed VND 20 billion. As of January 2026, Znews’ research indicates at least four GT3 RS (992.1) units have been imported: one in black, two in white and the current Guards Red example.
For enthusiasts seeking a race‑derived supercar that blends everyday drivability with outright performance, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS remains a rare and coveted prize.
