It’s a stain that nobody has invented contact lenses that let you unhurried down what you see in real time, because they’d be at ones fingertips when Porsche’s latest 911 rips by. One of the fastest automobiles the brand has ever made, it’s almost a surprise that this 700-horsepower miscreation is even road legal.
First appearing at this year’s E3, the 2018 RS adaptation of Porsche’s more experimental line is also one of the carmaker’s ton powerful, with a rear-mounted engine muscled up with a goliath 553lb of torque. Doubtlessly, all this gear makes for one very steamy car, which is why united water injections are built in to keep it cool – important when racing to the top promptness of 211 mph. On a track day. Obviously. Not the M6. Ahem.

In a bid to keep things light (and therefore fast), the new GT2 RS boasts on the other hand the bare essentials inside, with red and black leather uplands and a rollover cage to the rear. Just in case you take the Tesco traffic circle a little too quickly.
Since your average Porsche doesn’t turn out cheap, expect to pay an uplift in this speed demon. The 911 GT2 RS is currently offered at round £250,000. Which means that you’ll need a Vin Diesel compensation to get behind the wheel.
