Porsche Classic showcases historic 911's at Techno Classica, the world’s largest classic car fair.To mark the occasion of “40 years of the 911 Carrera RS”, two racing versions of the 911 Carrera RS from the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart are on display. The 1973 911 Carrera RSR delivers 330 hp and is joined by the ultimate RS variant, the 1974 911 Carrera RSR Turbo. The RSR Turbo – with its distinctive widened rear wheel arches – produces a sensational 500 hp from a 2.1 litre version of the charismatic flat six engine.

The RS-themed display is completed by a 911 Carrera RS 2.7 road car, which has been restored by the Porsche Classic workshop specialists. Also on show is an early Porsche 911, which is currently being restored for a customer at Porsche Classic.
