About this car
The 2016 Porsche 911 R appears in GT Silver Metallic with green side stripes and Porsche script highlights. Production was limited to 991 units worldwide, and this example pairs the 4.0-liter naturally aspirated flat-six from the GT3 RS with a six-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive.
The engine produces 500 horsepower. A magnesium roof and carbon-fiber hood form part of the car's lightweight construction, which keeps weight low while retaining the classic 911 silhouette and proportions.
Every element of the specification focuses on direct driver engagement rather than electronic intervention or added weight.

The Porsche 911 (991) is the seventh generation of the iconic 911 sports car, produced from 2011 to 2019. It marked a significant evolution with a longer wheelbase, improved interior technology, and a shift to electric power steering. Over its production run, approximately 233,000 units were manufactured across various trims, including Carrera, Turbo, GT3, and GT2 RS models, making it less rare than some earlier 911 generations but still highly sought after by collectors for specific variants.
Engine options ranged from a 3.4L flat-six in base Carrera models (350 hp) to the 3.8L twin-turbo in the GT2 RS (700 hp), with top speeds exceeding 210 mph in high-performance trims. The 991 introduced hybrid technology with the 918 Spyder-inspired 911 GT3 R Hybrid (limited production). Special editions like the 911 R (991 units made) and 50th Anniversary Edition are particularly coveted for their rarity and historical significance, often commanding premium prices. Values for well-maintained examples, especially manual transmission GT3s and limited-run models, have appreciated steadily, reflecting strong collector interest in this generation’s blend of modern engineering and classic 911 heritage.
