New Porsche 911 R Spotted In Parking Lot Near ‘Ring

Porsche’s €190,000 hardcore 911 R was just seen today in a parking garage not too far from the Nurburgring, which is arguably the best place where you could unleash such a car.

The 911 R first made its debut during the 2016 Geneva Motor Show where purists bowed before its 500 PS naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six and 6-speed manual gearbox setup.

It also features a specially tuned rear-axle steering system which improves turn-in, while the mechanical rear-diff lock helps it achieve better traction.

With its combination of low speed and high speed corners, the Nurburgring seems ideal for testing out what is currently the lightest version of the 911 being sold. Speaking of which, Porsche is building just 991 units, making this sighting all the more special.

In a straight line, the 911 R will do 323 km/h (200 mph), with the first 100 km/h (62 mph) coming and going in just 3.8 seconds.

Looking closely at the images obtained by Boosted Boris, you can even spot the full carbon bucket seats which have a very aggressive appearance up top.
