Arguably the purest form of the\u00a0911 model range<\/a>, the 2016\u00a0Porsche 911 R\u00a0pays homage to the brand\u2019s epic heritage with the most modern of concoctions.

 <\/p>\n

Porsche designed this car for just the thrill of driving. It\u2019s completely different from the\u00a0GT3 RS<\/a>\u00a0with its big spoiler, an overly stiffened suspension and an estranged paddled gearbox that made that car a peculiar choice to many Porsche fans. The new 911 R is just a plain car that will absolutely give you a very good time driving. Its body is reminiscent of the Carrera and the engine is pretty much the same from the one found inside the GT3 RS.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It is equipped with a 4-litre naturally aspirated flat-six engine with a six-speed manual gearbox is coming to us for sure. It\u2019s lighter and faster with its engines pumping out 493 bhp at 8,250 rpm and 333 lb-ft\u00a0<\/b>at 6,250 rpm. The result is probably the best 911 of the modern era.<\/p>\n
