Porsche 911 GT3 RS spy shot

As we wait for the 998 generation to show up in 2011, there’s still plenty to enjoy from the 997-era Porsche 911s. Because the 997 is still going through its minor facelift, Porsche is keeping the spy photographers happy. The refreshed Carrera and Targa have already hit the streets, and now we see the tweaks to the GT3 RS. Although we won’t see the car until next year, its obvious the GT3 RS gets the same tweaks as the lesser 911s such as LED daytime lights and revised bumpers.

One important element that will carryover from the current GT3 RS is the engine. Power will come from the same 415bhp 3.6-liter flat six-cylinder engine, which will allow it to hit 193mph and accelerate from 0-60mph in around four seconds.
