The 2024 Porsche 911 GT3 R Rennsport, one of just 77 built worldwide, is now listed on Bring a Trailer. Numbered 26 in the series, this track-only Porsche delivers 611 horsepower from a Rennsport-tuned flat-six and has only 33 kilometers on the clock. Here’s why this rare machine is a collector’s dream.

2024 Porsche 911 GT3 R Rennsport carbon fiber bodywork and aerodynamic design at auctionUnveiled at the 2023 Rennsport Reunion in Monterey, the GT3 R Rennsport is a non-homologated evolution of Porsche's GT3 R race car, designed exclusively for track-day use.

Freed from homologation constraints, Porsche's engineers optimized aerodynamics, weight, and mechanical systems for uncompromised lap performance.

Design leads Grant Larson and Thorsten Klein shaped Rennsport-specific aero: revised intakes, shielded front flicks, ground effects, and a rear wing inspired by the Brumos Porsche 935 that won the 1978 24 Hours of Daytona.

The car combines a steel-and-aluminum composite shell with exposed carbon-fiber panels for strength and lightness.

Motorsport-Focused Exterior

This example features visible carbon-fiber bodywork with Agate Gray Metallic roof pillars and door details.

Functional items include LED headlights with color-adjustable DRLs, cameras in place of mirrors, a roof escape hatch, removable fixed side windows, and an oil-level gauge built into the right rear quarter window.

The rear boasts an LED lightbar above illuminated "Porsche" lettering, an LED rain light, and a rear diffuser feeding dual unrestricted exhaust outlets, all tuned for aerodynamic efficiency and cooling.

Wheels, Brakes, and Chassis

BBS center-lock wheels with AP Racing brakes on Porsche GT3 R Rennsport track carThe Rennsport rolls on single-piece BBS 18-inch center-lock wheels (18×12.5" front, 18×13" rear) fitted with Michelin Pilot Sport competition tires. A tire-pressure monitoring system is standard.

Braking duties are handled by AP Racing slotted and ventilated discs with six-piston monobloc aluminum calipers up front and four-piston units at the rear. The system includes titanium-backed pads, dual master cylinders with adjustable bias, and Bosch Race ABS Generation 5 for race-level control.

The suspension uses a double-wishbone front layout and a multi-link rear with spherical bearings and five-way adjustable KW coilovers. Adjustable blade-style anti-roll bars, a shim adjustment system and quick jacks round out the package for rapid setup and servicing.

Stripped, Purpose-Built Interior

The cockpit is single-seat, single-minded: a Racetech racing seat trimmed in black Alcantara, a blue Schroth six-point harness, and a welded roll cage. Features include side nets with push-button release, an adjustable pedal box, Race-Tex dashboard trim, and red pull-straps on the doors.

A quick-release carbon-fiber steering wheel contains paddle shifters and controls for traction, ABS, and lighting. The Cosworth ICD digital dash provides configurable displays and full data-logging capability, perfect for tuning and post-session analysis.

Engine and Transmission — 611 Horsepower Rennsport Flat-Six

Porsche 4.2-liter naturally aspirated flat-six engine Type MA187 in GT3 R RennsportPower comes from a naturally aspirated 4.2-liter Type MA187 flat-six developed from the GT3 R unit. Rennsport-specific pistons, camshafts, and calibration raise compression and power, producing a factory-rated 611 horsepower on E25 bioethanol (or compatible synthetic eFuel).

Technical highlights: dry-sump lubrication, direct injection (Bosch MS 6.6), four valves per cylinder, and a carbon-fiber intake manifold feeding individual throttle bodies.

Drive is sent to the rear via a six-speed constant-mesh sequential transaxle with a mechanical limited-slip differential, single-mass flywheel and carbon clutch with electromechanical actuation.

Collector Package & Condition

A dash plaque confirms this car as number 26 of 77. The odometer displays 33 kilometers (~21 miles), and the dealer reports the car has not been driven since delivery. The sale includes a lockable numbered tool chest (with car cover, tools, and suspension shims) and a numbered portfolio containing build documents and a specifications sheet.

Because the Rennsport is a track-only machine, it is offered with a bill of sale rather than a road title. The listing is live on Bring a Trailer as part of Wob's Icons of Zuffenhausen Collection (Newbury Park, California).
