Mileage: 37 000km

Colour: White/Red

PRICE: SOLD

Though the 996 had to endure plenty of criticism from Porsche afficionados when it was launched, it evolved into a very good sportscar indeed, courtesy of Porsche's tradition of continuous improvement. 

If there is one thing the Porsche fans agree on, however, it is that the GT3 RS was the most entertaining, driver-focused 996 of all. It used the marque's naturally-aspirated 3.6L flat-six and the body of the Carrera 4, but with a stiffened front-end, uprated brakes and significant weight reduction it was a real scorcher. It could sprint to 100 kph in 4.4 seconds and reach a top speed of 310kph.

This beautiful white/red example has exceptionally low mileage (37 000km) and is in stunning overall condition. It also boasts a full service history with Porsche.
