displacing 4.2-liters.
The extra displacement to
Porsche's range-topping naturally-aspirated flat six engine will see power rise
by approximately 25 hp over the current car's 493 hp. It
will make the refreshed RS the most powerful to date and help to differentiate
it from the facelifted GT3 also in development.

the 991.2 GT3 will feature the 4.0-liter engine of the GT3 RS in place of its
current 3.8-liter unit.

and it therefore includes a new badge at the rear and side stickers to denote
the larger engine. Additionally, new tailpipes have been fitted as has a custom
rear bumper and diffuser. A notable absentee of the updates are the restyled
taillights which the new RS will feature.
