There were two glaring omissions from the last generation of Porsche"s 911 GT3 RS. One: a manual gearbox. Two: a big sticker to show everyone you owned the hardest, fastest naturally-aspirated track-orientated 911. This new Gen 2 991 GT3 RS has fixed one of those things. Before the purists get all excited about the new variant following in the footsteps of its standard GT3 brother and reverting back to the ol" three pedals and a gear lever, the new RS remains a strict PDK only car. But there"s now a sticker set as standard. And who doesn"t love stickers? As you can see, it"s very much a soft facelift to see the RS out until the brand-brand new 911 comes along later this year. Considering the old car was staring down the barrel of perfection, it"s not like much needed to be done anyway.
