Aerodynamic, light, powerful and well-balanced: the RS models from Porsche are synonymous with high sports performance. For more than fifty years, the initials RS have marked every Porsche 911 generation. Cars bearing these letters excite purists and push enthusiasts to their limits.
The two authors, journalists Fabian Hoberg and Constantin Bergander, and photographer Peter Besser, having worked closely with Porsche, show these fascinating and special versions with technical details, many photos and interesting anecdotes about their development.
Tackling the fastest chapter in Porsche history, Porsche RS traces the entire saga: from the Porsche 911 with its characteristic duck nose to the sophisticated traction control system, from the slim sheet metal bodywork to the carbon fibre doors, from the 2.7-litre carburettor engine to the new 4.0-litre with electronic valve control.
This highly detailed book, with an entertaining narrative and testimonials from designers and engineers, describes all RS variants of the Porsche 911, from the legendary Carrera RS 2.7 to the brand new GT3 RS Type 992.
All 911 RS models in a single volume. Three hundred stunning pictures. Technical data for every model.
