Porsche 911 GT3 Manthey: Where extreme meets the road

Looking at the rear wing, it's hard to believe that it's even legal. The changes, however, are not limited solely to the spoiler.

After Porsche unveiled the refreshed 911 GT3 last month, brand enthusiasts eagerly awaited the new GT3 RS. Until that happens, they can enjoy another debut based on the current version. This is the model signed by Manthey Racing.

Porsche holds a 51% stake in this German team and is increasingly utilising its expertise. The car you see in the photos is the best example of this. It's an extreme racing vehicle, yet not devoid of road homologation.

As you can easily notice, aerodynamics was the priority here. In addition to the enormous rear wing, the body stands out with the absence of a rear window and full rear rims. There is also no shortage of additional air intakes or a substantial diffuser. All this means that the downforce at 285 km/h reaches one ton.

The 911 GT3 Manthey Racing also received a different suspension. Stiffer springs and racing shock absorbers will provide excellent handling on the track, and composite brake pads will withstand even more aggressive driving.

Specialists from Manthey Racing dedicated as much as two years to creating this project. They now plan to test its performance on the Nürburgring. We remind you that the production 911 GT3 RS conquered the "Green Hell" in 6:49. The version modified by Manthey should be even faster.
