Porsche 911 RS NGT
A rare and exceptionally desirable 1991 Porsche 911
Carrera RS NGT will be sold by Silverstone Auctions at the company's sale on
October 15.
Expected to sell for between 135,000 pounds and
155,000 pounds (US$ 174,730-200,616), the Carrera RS NGT is considered as one of
the purist road-going 911s ever conceived, so focused it is to the driving
experience.
While far from the fastest 911 variant of its time,
it puts the driver first, thanks to the manual transmission, stripped-out interior,
racing bucket seats, 4-point harnesses and a full welded roll cage. In some
respects, it could be considered the precursor to the brand new 911 R, even
though it has a different badge.
The car heading for auction has had five owners from
new and has 25,00 miles on the clock. It originally called Germany home until
2010 and was then exported to a new owner in Japan. Most recently, it was
imported into the United Kingdom where it currently resides.
According to managing director of Silverstone Auctions,
“The 964 is often regarded as the all-encompassing true drivers’ 911, and there
can be no doubt then that this Carrera RS in NGT specification is one of the
most driver-focused and rewarding Porsches you will ever find.”
Power for the car comes courtesy of a 3.6-liter
flat-six engine delivering 256 hp and 232 lb-ft of torque.
