For Porsche purists and collectors, The RSR Project has unveiled a breathtaking new custom hand-built 1985 RSR Carrera 911, finished in the iconic Gulf Blue with vibrant orange livery. This modern masterpiece draws inspiration from the original 1973 RSR models, renowned for representing the zenith of Stuttgart’s engineering prowess. The lightweight RSR cars were synonymous with superior performance, dominating global racing challenges both on and off the track, including legendary endurance and rally events like the 24-Hours of Le Mans and La Carrera Panamericana. The term “RennSport Rennwagen” (Racing Sport Racing Car) epitomized the high-performance, race-ready essence of the 911 Carrera cars.

Specialising in the restoration and custom modification of RSR 911s from the golden era of 1984 to 1989, The RSR Project expertly resurrects this glorious period of vintage race cars. The latest 1985 Carrera 911 RSR, adorned in the celebrated Gulf colours, is a testament to their craftsmanship. The car features meticulously appointed interiors, stylishly adorned with houndstooth patterns and options for rare imported Scottish tartans. Each vehicle interior undergoes a complete transformation, including premium seating, lightweight carpets, a new-classic dashboard, RS door panelling, headliner, visors, and updated front and rear glass.

For added comfort and convenience, an upgraded air conditioning system with modern compressors and condensers is seamlessly integrated into the dash. This modern amenity is available for an additional $10,000, ensuring that the new Gulf Blue 911 offers a perfect blend of vintage charm and contemporary comfort. The minimalist interior design harmoniously complements the updated mechanics, delivering a thrillingly analogue on-road experience that showcases the peerless expression of vintage design polished with modern ingenuity.

The heart of The RSR Project lies in its custom engines, comprehensively rebuilt and detailed to factory-new condition. Clients can choose between 3.2L, 3.4L, or 3.5L engine formats, with additional options for stock, PMO, or custom fuel injections. All gaskets and rubber components are fully replaced, ensuring each customised 911 is as brand new inside as it is outside. The RSR Project cars also feature fully rebuilt suspensions with new shocks and bushings, providing a smooth and responsive ride. For those seeking enhanced braking performance, large 4-piston brakes can be fitted to each corner of the Gulf Blue as an extra-cost option.

Clients can also select between 15×11 and 15×9 Braid wheels, wrapped in sticky, versatile Michelin TB-15 tyres, allowing them to personalize their car’s performance and aesthetic. The RSR Project’s meticulous attention to detail and unwavering commitment to quality ensures that each custom-built 1985 RSR Carrera 911 is not only a work of art but also a high-performance machine ready to take on modern roads.

In essence, The RSR Project’s custom 1985 911 Carrera in Gulf Blue is more than just a car; it’s a celebration of Porsche’s illustrious racing heritage, brought to life with modern precision and timeless style.
