As with many new sports cars these days, the makers of the new 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS found a video game event a more suitable venue for unveiling the car than, say, a motorsport event. Then again, the new RS will make its track debut in the Forza 7 Motorsport long before it hit any real tarmac, so…

The publicity side of things notwithstanding, the fact that 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS got its reveal at E3 Expo is also a hint that video games might be the only realm where the majority of people can enjoy this fine product. Porsche is yet to confirm the official details, but the aficionados among you already know a high-end 911 like this is going to be produced in strictly limited numbers, the waiting list for it is going to be long, and the price tag is going to make you dizzy.

At any rate, it is still a cause for celebration that they made the 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS at all. In today’s economy and with all the environmental concerns it takes courage for a board of directors to green light a 700-hp sports car with a complex Turbo engine whose sole purpose is to provide a small number of very fortunate people with refined driving fun. If we’re honest the GT2 RS does not even look all that brilliant, what with a FIA GT-inspired aero kit, and carbon stripes all over. The GT3 RS is a much sexier proposition in that sense, or even the 911 R for that matter. But GT2 RS is extremely special and that is why people are going to literally fight each other for the privilege of having one.
