The interior of the 911 GT3 RS is based on the current GT3 model, which means customers will be treated to the massive amount of Alcantara and the simple, yet sporty layout that comes with the latter. Of course,
the RS badge comes with a few features of its own, starting with a pair of full bucket seats, which are based on the carbon seats of the 918 Spyder. A quick comparison between the two interiors reveals the RS also boasts carbon-fiber inserts, race-spec, lightweight door handles, and a unique motorsport steering wheels with a yellow 12 o’clock stripe. Porsche also offers the Club Sport Package as standard, meaning the RS gets a bolted-on roll cage behind the front seats, preparation for a battery master switch, and a six-point safety harness for the driver and fire extinguisher with mounting bracket.
Customers looking for more race-spec goodies can select the optional Sport Chrono Package, which features integrated timers and the Porsche Track Precision app. The latter can be used to have lap times automatically measured via GPS, and to log data on a smartphone for parameters such as vehicle speed and lateral acceleration. The app not only manages track data, but also lets the driver share and compare it with other drivers, which will prove quite useful and fun after a long track weekend.

Drivetrain
Porsche 911 GT3 RS
After months of rumors, Porsche purists can finally lay their turbocharged fears to rest: the GT3 RS remains a naturally aspirated machine
After months of rumors, Porsche purists can finally lay their turbocharged fears to rest: the GT3 RS remains a naturally aspirated machine. However, the Germans decided to increase output by replacing the 3.8-liter unit found in the previous model a 4.0-liter flat-six. The powerplant cranks out 500 horsepower and 339 pound-feet of torque, which represents a 25-pony increase over the GT3 and a 50-horsepower improvement when compared to the previous GT3 RS. Interestingly enough, the new model is on par with the GT3 RS 4.0 version of the 997-generation 911, which was also motivated by a 4.0-liter engine. Although Porsche is mum on the matter, the units are likely identical.
As expected, the mill mates to a PDK transmission specifically developed for the GT3 RS. The combo enables the sports car to hit 62 mph in 3.3 seconds (0.6 seconds quicker than the previous GT3 RS 4.0) and 124 mph in 10.9 seconds. No word on top speed yet, but it should at least match the GT3’s, set at 195-mph. Fuel consumption is estimated at 12.7 l/100 km on the European combined cycle, which converts to around 18.5 U.S. mpg. However, I expect this figure to drop significantly after the EPA is done with the GT3 RS. For reference, the GT3 returns 15 mpg city and 20 mpg on the highway.

The new drivetrain also comes with functions such as declutching by "paddle neutral" — comparable to pressing the clutch with a conventional manual gearbox –- and Pit Speed, which allows speed limiting at the push of a button. Both features have been customized for motorsport use in order to provide drivers with more assistance when driving on a race track.
Rear-axle steering and Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus with fully variable rear axle differential lock further increase agility and dynamics, while the wider front and rear tracks enable improve roll stability in comparison to the 911 GT3.
Fitted with the widest tires of any 911 production model as standard, the new RS also delivers more agile turn-in characteristics and higher cornering speeds.
That said, it’s not surprising the new GT3 RS lapped the Nurburgring track in only seven minutes and 20 seconds, shattering the Carrera GT’s record of just under seven minutes and 29 seconds.
Top gear says a 6 point harness is standard... As for looking at the options checklist. You can add PASM on a GTS tht has PASM standard, yet Porsches site will calculate it and charge you, so you need to look at the real spec sheet for the truth.... Money is throwin **** at me on a whim...
