Based on the 911 GT3 RS, the 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 Cup Race Car will be shown at 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show.
The 2010 GT3 Cup is the first GT3 Cup features the 44-millimetre (1.73") wider body at the rear, allowing for larger wheels and a widened track. The wheels are set of new 18x9-inch (front) and 18x9.5-inch three-piece alloys suited for all-out racing duty. A 15mm (0.6") lower front spoiler lip providing more downforce on the front axle, and a larger rear wing (for additional downforce on the rear axle) are also included.
The car has been stripped out to keep its weight down to just 1200kg. Lightweight features include 18-inch alloy wheels, carbonfibre bodywork and the Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes which weigh 20kg less than the standard brakes.
Under the hood, the Cup shares the same engine with the 911 GT3 RS, a horizontally-opposed 3.8-liter six-cylinder engine that produces 450 bhp (331 kW) at 8,500 rpm. It also fits a sequential six-speed manual gearbox for quick-shifting performance. Though performance figures haven’t been released, the GT3 Cup should accelerate from 0-100 km/h in less than four seconds before hitting a top speed in excess of 314 km/h (195 mph).
Other special equipments include a special racing exhaust system, a fully controlled catalytic convertor and a fully adjustable suspension. The streeting wheel and data display offer a total of six user-customizable switches.
The 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 Cup Race Car will be available exclusively in Carrara White, the first delivery begins this October with prices starting at €149,850(about $213,000).
