There\u2019s a pleasing consistency to very special Porsche 911s. You know they\u2019re going to look like quite a few other Porsche 911s, for starters; they\u2019ll be powered by six horizontally opposed cylinders; and you\u2019ll often be able to get a manual gearbox as well. With its new layout, the Corvette is drastically different to what\u2019s come before. A super 911 changes, for sure, but plenty stays the same.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But every now and then, there\u2019s a big leap forward for the ultimate Porsche sports cars. It could well be argued that the current GT3 RS, with its incredible aerodynamic enhancements, is one of those; creating a 4.0-litre 997 manual was probably one as well. And the most recent Speedster totally transformed the drop-top 911 stereotype. The 30-year-old 993 you see here was hugely significant as well because it is, of course, a Carrera RS.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

And its significance wasn\u2019t in the obvious stuff. It was substantially lighter than a Carrera, as is Renn Sport law, with measures as extreme as shrinking the washer bottle, deleting the intermittent wiper operation and keeping just one interior light for a 100kg saving over a standard 993. Which, when that was already less than 1,400kg and it was the mid-’90s (i.e. with less stuff in cars anyway) is quite some achievement. More power came from the flat-six, too, with a bored-out 3.8 capacity, bigger valves and Porsche\u2019s Varioram intake manifold. 300hp and less than 1,300kg was more than enough to thrill, especially with all the amenities of a luge.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

But it was the suspension that really marked the RS as a big step forward, introducing the five-link rear end that replaced the old trailing arms and would evolve to underpin the GT Porsches that followed. It ensured a less snappy, more secure 911 RS, albeit with the excitement very much still intact. You can read more about the 993 RS experience in John\u2019s excellent PH Heroes story<\/a>, but what you really need to know is that he reckoned it was one of the top five cars he\u2019s ever experienced. And John\u2019s driven more cars than you\u2019ve had hot dinners.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

So a 993 RS is a very special car, even by the standards of special 911s, and this one<\/a> looks to be a top-tier example. It\u2019s a Club Sport, for starters, back when such a package was actually quite a big deal; Porsche needed to homologate some bits and bobs for a GT2-spec 993 racer, and they were found on the Club Sport RS. While only 100 were needed to meet the regs, it\u2019s believed just over 200 RS CSes were produced. The wing, cage and buckets are the big giveaways.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

What makes this one most notable, however, is that it\u2019s a right-hand-drive, UK market car from new – and the ad reckons there were only ever six of those. Six! There must be half a dozen YouTubers whingeing about 992 allocations right now, and that\u2019s all that there were for the entire market in a year of production. Stripped-out 911s weren\u2019t quite the same prospect 30 years ago, really only appealing to the most committed.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The last owner of this one has owned it since 2008, so they\u2019ve certainly had the time to really appreciate it. (Just best not think about what a 13-year-old 911 with wind-up windows and silly seats cost then.) Currently showing a bit less than 27,000 miles, the RS is even better than might be expected: far from the dainty old Porsche, it\u2019s mean and moody still thanks to the Club Sport changes. And absolutely exquisite, too, paint lustrous and what\u2019s left of the interior in excellent condition. Wonder if Porsche Classic Communication Management could go in\u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It\u2019ll come as no surprise to learn that an air-cooled 911 of this importance, specification and rarity is now a highly prized Porsche. The asking price is \u00a3425,000; you don\u2019t need us to say what kind of modern 911 that buys. But they won\u2019t be one of six, they won\u2019t be quite this unashamedly raw, and they won\u2019t be a 993 Carrera RS. Just saying it sounds great. And it\u2019s still a heck of a lot less than a GT2\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
