The Details
This 2016 Porsche 911 R presents in GT Silver Metallic over a Black leather interior with deviated-thread stitching, showing 3,307 miles from new in original condition, accompanied by its original window sticker reflecting an as-delivered MSRP of $222,815. Limited to 991 units worldwide, the 911 R remains one of the most significant modern collector Porsches — a deliberately simplified, manual-only interpretation of the 991-generation GT3 RS platform that prioritized driver engagement over outright lap time, a philosophy the market has rewarded decisively in the years since.
Power comes from the 4.0-liter naturally aspirated flat-six shared with the GT3 RS, producing 500 horsepower at 8,250 rpm, paired with a six-speed GT Sport manual transmission and rear-wheel drive. The magnesium roof, carbon fiber front fenders and luggage lid, and deleted rear wing keep weight to a minimum, while the manual-only gearbox — fitted despite Porsche's own data showing the PDK to be objectively quicker — remains the car's defining statement of intent.
The window sticker on this example documents an extensive deviated-thread stitching package across the seats, headrests, armrest, door panels, and center console lid, paired with red 911 R stripes and Porsche script side stripes — a more visually pronounced specification than the standard black-stitched cars. Additional equipment includes the front axle lift system, Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes, Sport Chrono Package, carbon fiber interior trim, and high-gloss black painted wheels.
At 3,307 miles with original documentation on file, this example offers one of the more distinctively specified 911 R combinations to reach the market, in a model whose population continues to be absorbed into long-term collections.
