Porsche 911 GT3 R Rennsport Heads to Auction With $2 Million Estimate

The newest Porsche expected to break the million-dollar mark at auction isn’t an aging race legend—it’s barely a year old. Broad Arrow Auctions will offer a 2024 Porsche 911 GT3 R Rennsport, one of just 77 built, at its Zoute Concours Auction in Belgium on October 10. Experts say the car could fetch nearly $2 million when the hammer falls.

First unveiled at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca during Porsche’s Rennsport Reunion 7 in 2023, the GT3 R Rennsport was designed as a no-limits evolution of the 992-generation 911 GT3 R. The model was built not for competition but for collectors and track-day purists, freed from FIA racing restrictions.

“This is one of the most limited production cars to come out of Zuffenhausen in decades,” said Jakob Greisen, senior car specialist at Broad Arrow. “Just 77 examples exist worldwide at a time when most manufacturers are producing thousands.”

Powered by a naturally aspirated 4.2-liter flat-six, the Rennsport delivers 611 horsepower—54 more than the race-regulated GT3 R. A sequential six-speed gearbox with steering-wheel paddles handles shifts, while a carbon-fiber body helps keep weight down to roughly 2,734 pounds. The car runs on E25 fuel, reflecting Porsche’s continued push toward sustainable racing technology.

This example, chassis No. 37, was ordered directly from Porsche and finished in the optional red-and-white “Flacht Design,” a livery inspired by Porsche’s historic racing teams. Inside, the roll-cage-equipped cockpit is stripped down to a single seat and red harnesses—another nod to its track pedigree.

Delivered new and never raced, the GT3 R Rennsport remains in “as-delivered” condition with only test and delivery kilometers. Originally priced at $1.046 million, the car’s estimated sale price of up to $1.99 million underscores how modern limited-production Porsches are joining the ranks of blue-chip collectibles once reserved for vintage race icons.
