2019 Porsche 911 GT3 RS with Weissach package
Set to become the latest in a dizzying array of 911 models, the facelifted GT3 RS has a familiar design but it adopts a modestly revised front fascia with updated lighting units.
Naturally, there's a price for such subtle visual changes: $18,000 for the Weissach Package, which helps the 4.0-liter 520 horsepower flat six push the vehicle from 0-to-60 miles per hour in less than three seconds.
At this year's Geneva Motor Show, Porsche showed off the most powerful naturally aspirated 911 ever, the new GT3 RS. The diet helped the 918 go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just 2.6 seconds and 124 miles per hour in just 7.2 seconds.
New Weissach Package offering cuts weight with carbon fiber. But if the "normal" 911 GT3 RS isn't enough of a corner carver for you, Porsche now offers a way to make it even lighter. Additionally, the front trunk lid and fenders on the 911 GT3 RS are made of carbon fiber and the roof consists of magnesium. Further distinguishing the model is a Weissach Package logo on the embroidery of the seat headrests and above the glove compartment.

Putin, Erdogan discuss plans for next week's summit on Syria
Tusk said improved relations would depend on progress on issues including the rule of law and press freedom as well as Syria. The issue of Turkey's membership negotiations began in 2005, then stalled for five years and have now effectively collapsed.
It's not just for show. The carbon fiber adds up; 1.1 pounds from the roof, 11.9 pounds from carbon-fiber stabilizer bars and suspension coupling rods, and 0.5 pounds from carbon-fiber steering wheel and shift paddles.
For buyers interested in another slight reduction of around 25 pounds, magnesium wheels are available as a $13,000 upgrade atop the Weissach Package's $18,000 premium.
The combination of the package and the mag wheels takes about 38 pounds off the vehicle, bringing curb weight down to 3,153 pounds, according to Porsche. The standard carbon fiber hood and carbon fiber rear wing of the 911 GT3 RS are painted in body color, they feature visible carbon fiber when the vehicle is ordered with the Weissach Package. That's of course before any options, including the new Weissach Package or your special paint-to-match finish.
