911 GT2 RS Leaked Photograph

With 530bhp and a top speed of 204mph, the standard GT2 is already the fastest model in Porsche’s range, but the according to our sources the RS should makes even the Carrera GT hypercar seem slow.

No visual differences can be made out from the single image, but the engine has been given a thorough working over. If rumours are to be believed power from the 3.6-litre twin-turbo engine will soar to around 610bhp, while the rear-wheel drive layout will remain.

Over 90kg will be shed from the kerbweight, too. That means a 0-62mph of around three seconds and a top speed of 210mph is entirely feasible, while the car has reportedly already set a sensational 7mins 22 secs lap of the Nurburgring.

Expect the track-focused model to feature a roll-cage, adjustable suspension and bigger brakes when it goes on sale later this year – costing around £150,000.
