The newest generation of the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, launched in August 2022, has turned heads in Ho Chi Minh City. Dressed in the brand’s classic Guards Red, this high‑performance sports car is the third unit known to be rolling on Vietnamese roads.
From the Track to the Streets
Inspired by the legendary 911 GT3 R and 911 RSR race cars, the 992.1 GT3 RS blends aggressive aerodynamics with a stripped‑down, track‑ready silhouette. It even made a cameo in the 2024 Gumball 3000 rally, but the first models to receive Vietnamese license plates only appeared in early 2026.
Key Design Features
- Wide‑body shell with pronounced carbon‑fiber cuts for maximum downforce.
- Front luggage compartment replaced by a race‑derived cooling system.
- Lightweight multi‑spoke alloy wheels – 20‑inch up front, 21‑inch at the rear.
- Optional paint finishes: Pyro Red, Satin Black, Indigo Blue (each adds roughly VND 40 million).
Exclusive Guard‑Red Example
The flagship of the local fleet sports the traditional Guards Red paint and carries the historic “GT3 RS” racing badge that has been part of the line‑up since 2003.
Aerodynamics & Performance
The car’s aerodynamic package outweighs the standard 911 Carrera, measuring 4,572 mm long, 1,900 mm wide and 1,322 mm tall, with a wheelbase stretched to 2,457 mm. While the ultra‑light Weissach Package – featuring extensive carbon‑fiber exterior elements and chassis reinforcement – was not fitted (a choice that would have added about VND 2.7 billion), the standard setup still delivers impressive stats:
- Active rear wing and front splitter with electrically controlled DRS‑style flaps, adjusting downforce on demand.
- Downforce of 409 kg at 200 km/h, rising to 860 kg at 285 km/h.
Powertrain
Under the hood sits a naturally aspirated 4.0‑liter flat‑six boxer engine producing 525 hp (525 PS) and 465 Nm of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a 7‑speed PDK dual‑clutch gearbox.
Driving Dynamics
0‑100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds, a top speed of 296 km/h, and a Nürburgring lap time of 6:44.848 minutes – the third‑fastest production car on the legendary circuit when it debuted.
Interior & Personalisation
The cabin comes standard with carbon‑fiber bucket seats, while buyers can opt for the 18‑way Adaptive Sports seats. A rotary knob on the steering wheel gives quick access to drive mode, electronic balance, and traction controls. Extensive customisation options let owners tailor upholstery, trim, and tech to their taste.
Pricing in Vietnam
The base price for the Porsche 911 GT3 RS in Vietnam starts at VND 17.69 billion (approximately US$ 720,000). Fully optioned, the price can exceed VND 20 billion.
How Many Are Already Here?
According to Znews’ research, at least four GT3 RS units have been imported by the end of January 2026: one in Guards Red, two in white, and one in black.
For enthusiasts and collectors, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS represents the perfect blend of race‑car technology and everyday drivability – a true supercar experience on Vietnam’s roads.
