The 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 RS (997.2) is a facelifted variant of the Porsche 997 GT3 RS.
The 3.6L flat-six engine found in the older model was replaced by a new 3.8L flat-six. As a result, the GT3 RS gained 35 additional horsepower.
Porsche also fitted the car with a titanium rear muffler and exhaust tip, as well as a lithium-ion battery to save weight. Compared to its predecessor, the Mk2 GT3 RS weighs 11 lbs less.
Games[]
Need for Speed: World[]
The 911 GT3 RS was made available in Need for Speed: World on August 9, 2011 as a tier 3 car. Since August 22, 2012, it has been featured as an A class car.
It is one of the fastest cars in the game, as it can reach a top speed of 216 mph (348 km/h) without nitrous. Its acceleration and powerful nitrous boost allow the car to hit its top speed earlier than most A class cars. Due to being a light car, the GT3 RS is also capable of exiting corners at a high speed. It has a very responsive handling, but does occasionally feel loose.
The driving traits of the GT3 RS make it very competitive in any race type. Players can substantially improve its performance with pro or ultra parts, which can increase its top speed close to 248 mph (400 km/h), if nitrous is also applied.
The GT3 RS is useful for dodging police vehicles in Team Escape and Pursuit Outrun. A devastating crash such as a head-on collision with a heavy police vehicle can force the car to stop and become uncontrollable, since its mass cannot sustain collisions well.

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (2010)[]
The 911 GT3 RS appears in Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (2010) as a Super Series racer vehicle, and as an SCPD Rapid Deployment unit.
The racer vehicle is unlocked upon the player earning a total of 358,000 racer bounty. The SCPD unit is unlocked upon the player earning a total of 698,000 cop bounty.
Its strongest trait is its handling, which is useful for long drifts. Acceleration-wise, the GT3 RS performs decently. However, some cars such as the Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG Black Series and the Porsche 918 Spyder Concept may outperform the car due to their power and higher top speed.
It is suited to difficult routes with corners that are near to each other. It is also durable in Hot Pursuit, although not as much as several other Super Series cars.
