The new Porsche 911 GT3 RS has arrived in Ho Chi Minh City in Guards Red, priced at VND 17.7 billion. Discover specs, options and availability today!
In August 2022 Porsche unveiled the latest generation of the 911 GT3 RS, a track‑focused masterpiece that instantly caught the eye of collectors worldwide. The model finally made its way to Southeast Asia, turning heads in Ho Chi Minh City when a striking Guards Red example was spotted cruising the city’s boulevards.
Why the GT3 RS Stands Out
Inspired by Porsche’s own 911 GT3 R and the historic 911 RSR race cars, the new GT3 RS blends aggressive aerodynamics with a lightweight chassis. The front luggage compartment is replaced by a sophisticated cooling system borrowed from motorsport, while the bodywork features deep vents, wide fenders and a markedly wider track for superior grip.
Performance Highlights
- Engine: 4.0‑liter naturally‑aspirated flat‑six delivering 525 hp (525 PS) and 465 Nm of torque.
- Transmission: 7‑speed Porsche DPK dual‑clutch gearbox.
- 0–100 km/h (0‑62 mph): 3.2 seconds.
- Top speed: 296 km/h (184 mph).
- Lap time: 6:44.848 on the Nürburgring Nordschleife (2022 record for a street‑legal car).
Active Aerodynamics – A Touch of F1
The GT3 RS is equipped with an electrically controlled rear wing that mimics the DRS system used in Formula 1. Drivers can adjust the downforce level on the fly, generating up to 409 kg of force at 200 km/h and a staggering 860 kg at 285 km/h, dramatically enhancing cornering stability.
Wheel and Tire Package
Standard wheels are lightweight multi‑spoke aluminum alloys: 20‑inch at the front and 21‑inch at the rear. Buyers can elect special finishes such as Pyro Red, Satin Black or Indigo Blue for an extra VND 40 million.
Interior – Race‑Ready Comfort
Inside, the car comes with carbon‑fiber bucket seats as standard. Optional Adaptive Sports seats offer 18‑way electric adjustment. The steering wheel features a new rotary dial that lets the driver toggle driving mode, electronic balance, and traction settings without taking their hands off the wheel.
Optional Packages
The Weissach Package, costing roughly VND 2.7 billion, adds extensive carbon‑fiber exterior pieces, additional chassis bracing at both axles and other performance‑focused upgrades. The version seen in Vietnam did not include this package.
Pricing and Availability in Vietnam
Officially, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS starts at VND 17.69 billion (around US$750,000). Fully loaded with every optional trim, the price can push past the VND 20 billion mark. By the end of January 2026, at least four GT3‑RS units (992.1 series) have been imported into the country – one in Guards Red, two in white and one in black.
Where to See It
The Guards Red GT3 RS was first noticed during a Gumball 3000 appearance in 2024, and later made regular rounds on Ho Chi Minh City streets, attracting both local enthusiasts and passing tourists.
For those who crave an authentic track experience blended with everyday drivability, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS offers a rare combination of heritage, engineering excellence and exclusive styling – now available in Vietnam.
