Chassis No. WP0AF2A9XGS195132

It is easy to see why the 911 R was the envy of Porsche customers and fans everywhere upon its announcement at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show, selling out before a single car was built. Powerful, engaging, and classic, the 911 R combined the otherworldly 493 horsepower 4.0-liter naturally aspirated flat six of the GT3 RS with the wingless body of the GT3, and crucially, a six-speed manual transmission in lieu of the GT3 RS's PDK. From the RS, the 911 R inherited its magnesium roof, carbon fiber front and rear lids, and carbon fiber fenders, making it the lightest 911 variant available by 113 pounds. Its stripped back simplicity combined with retro styling cues like its Pepita houndstooth-trimmed one-piece carbon-fiber seats and Red or Green exterior stripes linking it back to the 1967 911 R made it one of the most desirable 911 variants of the past decade. It was so desirable, in fact, that it ultimately normalized the idea of allocations and waitlists for those interested in purchasing the most desirable Porsche models and was the first jewel in the crown for 918 Spyder Circle members.

According to the clean CARFAX Vehicle history report, this Porsche 911 R, limitation number 84 of 991 worldwide, was originally offered for sale via Manhattan Motorcars Inc. in New York, New York, showing 5 miles at the time. Evoking the specification of many Italian-ordered 1973 911 RSs, limitation number 84 was one of just 66 911 Rs finished in the "accelerated individual color" of Jet Black, complemented by Red exterior stripes and matching Red 20 inch forged aluminum wheels. Technical and exterior options listed on its specifications sheet include desirable features such as LED Headlights in Black including Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS Plus), 23.9 gallon Extended Range Fuel Tank, Fuel Cap with Aluminum Look Finish, and the all-important Single-Mass Flywheel with Reinforced Clutch (a $3650 extra). Well optioned on the interior as well, this example features the optional Leather Interior package of Black with Stitching in Red and front lightweight carbon bucket seats with houndstooth inserts. Additional interior options notably include the Sport Chrono Package, a Fire Extinguisher, Smoking Package, Seat Belts in Black, and the Deviated Stitching Interior Package.

While the options list, as extensive and well selected as it is, creates the personalized spec of limitation number 84, there is no denying that the 911 R, even in its most basic form, is one of the best Porsche 911s of all time. The CARFAX Vehicle History Report shows subsequent registration history in New York and California following its delivery, as well as multiple service visits to Porsche Monterey and Bugatti Newport Beach. Rare is the opportunity to acquire an ultra-exclusive supercar like the 911 R, and this example, showing 8,529 miles at the time of cataloging, is undoubtedly one of the most uniquely specified examples available.
