Rumors that Porsche 911 Carrera RS and 718 Spider RS may come out in 2023

Porsche's "RS" celebrates its 50th anniversary this year

Fufufu. I'm sorry, it's a rumor story again. Therefore, please listen to it (read it) ^^ (irresponsible (laughs))

Well, what the rumor is, as the title says, Porsche will announce Porsche Carrera RS and Boxster Spider RS next year in 2023.

Anyway, since this year is the 50th anniversary of Porsche's RS model, Porsche is trying to celebrate this 50th anniversary of RS grandly.

In fact, as will be described later, in the United States, it has been decided that this year's Porsche Sports Together Fest will be a grand celebration of the 50th anniversary of RS.

Speaking of the famous RS model of 1972, as I wrote the other day, in Japan it is commonly known as Nanasan Carrera, Porsche 911 RS 2.7. (* *As I wrote in the blog the other day, Nanasan Carrera is still Porsche in 1972 ^ ^)

What is Porsche RS?

By the way, RS of Porsche's RS model means "rennsport", that is, "racing" in German. It doesn't matter at all, but PORSIt's also in the center of the word CHE, RS ^^

It is a story that the Porsche 911 RS of Ducktail will be announced in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the birth of this Porsche 911 RS 2.7.

It has been witnessed several times in the past that the Ducktail 911 has been tested while being told that it is certainly a "Porsche Classic".

According to overseas media speculation, the 911 Carrera RS is a 3-liter engine equipped with a twin turbo (same as the Carrera GTS), and it will be increased by about 30 horsepower. However, the weight of the car may be about 13 to 14 kg lighter than the 911 with the same engine.

It's a rumor, but it's unclear why the story comes up to such a specific point ^^

In addition, Porsche is a model name of 718 Spider RS, and an open car version of the so-called 718 Cayman GT4 RS is also planned. Really? ?? Will Porsche make a convertible with the RS model?

It is said that this Spider RS will "become a true RS model", and it will be equipped with the same so-called GT4 4-liter NA engine as the Porsche 911 GT3.

In addition, the GT4 RS dual clutch transmission, upgraded chassis, Bilstein shock absorbers, and centerlock 20-inch wheels will also apply.

That's why it's rumored, but it has a lot of details ^^

It's a rumor that I don't really know how true it is, but there's one thing I thought, "Oh, that's certainly possible."

What that is is, since the emission regulation of Euro 7 is scheduled to be introduced in Europe from 2025, Porsche can create a dream high-performance car for engineers by then. The view that it gave the discretionary power.

Yes Yes. It's nice to have a dream, this way of thinking. If this is the case, make a convertible even with an RS model! I think I can't understand the flow. Well, if you can't make (= sell) in the future.

By the wayAccording to overseas media MOTORIn February 2022, Porsche's GT car boss Andreas Preuninger also said, "There is room to increase some special models in the 718 and 992 lines," and that is "Stay true to the core".

The fact that these RSs will come out may not end with rumor alone ^ ^

Porsche Sports Together Fest @ Indianapolis

Porsche has decided to hold the Porsche Sports Together Fest at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Indianapolis, September 2-4, 2022, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of RS this year.

The Indianapolis Motor Speedway is where the famous Indy 500 is held.

This fest will focus on Porsche's GT car model lines, including one-make races.

This fest is said to be Porsche himself "the largest collection of Porsche GT cars in the world and an event that spotlighted the 50th anniversary of the RS model."

When you say so, it is true that "Porsche 911 Carrera RS and 718 Spider RS will be announced" by Burn! It seems like it's going to come out ... I feel like it's there, it's not, it's like, hmm, it's like (laughs).

Porsche Together Fest 2022 Event Details

The contents of the event of the day that Porsche has announced at the moment are as follows.

Moreover, the way of introduction is to say, "In addition to celebrating the Golden Anniversary of the RS model line, there is also such an event."

The enthusiasm of "Celebrating the 50th anniversary of RS!" Is really transmitted. The contents of this fest announced at this time are:

• The world's largest collection of Porsche GT cars
• Porsche Classic Restore Challenge (Past challenges areHere)

• Esports Championship
• Lifestyle (family programs, activities, exhibitions of artist works, etc.)
• Various on-track sessions on the circuit
• More activities and events are being added on a regular basis

Certainly Porsche made a very enthusiastic announcement that "2022 will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the RS model grandly!", So I think that an RS special model will come out.

Well, that's why it's a rumor story, so it's up to you to believe or not. But if it really comes out, some people will reconsider their future car purchases ... I wonder ^^?
