Equipment
3.8 twin-ignition Le Mans-spec engine, 5-speed, 120-liter fuel cell, air jack system, passenger's seat, locking rear diff, gold brake calipers, Speedline RS wheels painted Amethyst Metallic, roll cage, Schroth harnesses, white face gauges. Sold on bill of sale.
Condition
Represented as the second of two "Strassenversion" RSRs built by Porsche Motorsport, and indeed the all-red fully appointed leather interior stands out on what otherwise looks like a race car. Delivered new to the UK and currently showing 70 km (43 miles). In current ownership since 2015
Market commentary
One of the rarest and quickest cars built on the 964 platform, this car came about after Porsche Motorsport built roughly 50 3.8-liter RSRs for competition and a British enthusiast specified the last two for road use. This example is certainly impressive but, interestingly, both of these Carrera RSR 3.8 Strassenversions have sold at auction. Bonhams just sold the other one (finished in Polar Silver) in Abu Dhabi. The slightly lower mileage as well as the Cosmoline still covering the car were apparently worth an extra few grand, because it brought $2,127,500.
