2010 Porsche 911 GT3 RS Coming Next Spring At $132,800

The new 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 RS will have a 450 horsepower 3.8 liter engine that redlines at 8500 rpm, delivering 15 more horsepower than its 911 GT3 counterpart, and mated to a six-speed manual transmission with shorter ratios and gearshift travel than in the 911 GT3.

Another new option in the GT3 RS is a lithium-ion battery reducing the weight by more than 22 lb and is mainly intended for the track. The front axle comes with nine-inch-wide wheels running on 245/35 ZR 19 sports tires while the rear axle features twelve-inch-wide wheels incorporating 325/30 ZR 19 sports tires.

The 2010 911 GT3 RS goes on sale in the U.S. in early spring of 2010 at $132,800.
