Ho Chi Minh City witnessed a spectacular arrival in early 2026 – a brand‑new Porsche 911 GT3 RS painted in the iconic Guards Red hue. Valued at roughly 17.7 billion VND (about US$760,000), the car is only the third GT3 RS to be seen on Vietnamese roads.
Why the GT3 RS Is a Collector’s Dream
First unveiled in August 2022, the 992‑generation 911 GT3 RS quickly became a coveted model for enthusiasts worldwide. Its design draws heavily from Porsche’s racing pedigree, echoing the 911 GT3 R and 911 RSR prototypes. After dazzling the 2024 Gumball 3000 circuit, the car finally received its local registration at the start of 2026.
Design and Aerodynamics
- Wider bodywork and aggressive carbon‑fiber cut‑lines for optimal downforce.
- Front luggage compartment replaced by a high‑performance cooling system taken from race cars.
- Standard lightweight alloy wheels – 20‑inch up front, 21‑inch rear.
- Optional paint finishes (Pyro Red, Satin Black, Indigo Blue) add an extra VND 40 million.
The vehicle’s aerodynamic package pushes the dimensions to 4,572 mm (length) × 1,900 mm (width) × 1,322 mm (height) with a 2,457 mm wheelbase, delivering up to 409 kg of downforce at 200 km/h and a staggering 860 kg at 285 km/h.
Performance Highlights
Under the hood sits a naturally aspirated 4.0‑liter flat‑six boxer engine producing 525 hp and 465 Nm of torque. Coupled with a 7‑speed PDK 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. At the Nürburgring Nordschleife, a 2022 test run clocked a lap time of 6:44.848 – making it the third fastest street‑legal Porsche of its era.
Driver‑Centric Technology
The cockpit features a race‑inspired steering wheel with rotary switches for driving mode, electronic balance, and grip control. Seats are carbon‑fiber bucket style by default, with an optional 18‑position Adaptive Sports setup. The car also boasts an electrically‑actuated rear wing that works like an F1 DRS system, adjusting downforce on the fly.
Pricing and Availability in Vietnam
Base price: VND 17.69 billion. Adding the full suite of optional equipment – carbon‑fiber exterior trim, Weissach Package (worth about VND 2.7 billion), premium interior upgrades, and special paint – can push the total well beyond VND 20 billion.
According to Znews, 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 Guards Red example now on display in Saigon.
What This Means for the Vietnamese Supercar Market
The appearance of the GT3 RS underscores a growing appetite for ultra‑high‑performance, limited‑edition cars among local collectors. With its race‑derived technology, striking design, and eye‑catching price tag, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS is set to become a benchmark for future premium imports.
