Behind a half cage from Heigo along with a fire extinguisher. Back seats is overrated. Under the rear window, the car proudly bears its name in red. Turn your gaze forward and grab the MOMO steering wheel which should be very familiar to anyone familiar with RS and GT cars from this generation of Porsche. The dashboard is simple and only houses the five familiar gauges and AC. In the center console we wont find controls for sport mode nor a button for the exhaust system. This is a car that goes full-on. Always. Something that becomes obvious as soon as you start rolling. The flywheel seems to weigh the same as a carbon fiber hamster wheel. The whole package actually presents the same feeling and presents a completely unique experience on the road set against a ’normal‘ 993.
With a scant 81016km indicated, the car presents itself in wonderful condition and is extremely well documented.
Option codes:
C09 – Swedish Market
197 – Stronger battery
459 – Strut bar
471 – Carrera RS Club Sport rear spoiler
573 – AC
RS. The two most important letters of the alphabet. Synonymous in the automotive industry as an abbreviation for the German word ‚Rennsport‘ and adorning a series of legendary models throughout the ages. Above all from Porsche who used the name for the first time in 1973 when it launched one of its most iconic models under the name Carrera RS. The model that today is better known only as the ’73 RS. For many years, Porsche was sparing with RS models, saving the name only for the most razor sharp models. In 1992, the 964 was born in RS form and was followed only 3 years later by its successor. The 993 Carrera RS. Shaped by the same ethos as previous RS models, the 993 RS showed the way through weight reduction and a suspension lifted from motorsport with the implementation of ball bearings wher bushing once was, roll bars and of course a different damping setup and a 300hp engine that was later an option on the regular car.
