This one-of-a-kind Porsche 911 R was specially commissioned by its previous owner to pay tribute to film legend Steve McQueen.
The Porsche 911 R is currently one of the hottest sports cars in the world. With a production quantity of exactly 991 units and currently "sold out", the Porsche 911 R is constantly "priced up" in the used car market.
 |
| On February 8, 2017, enthusiasts of this car line will have the opportunity to own a more special Porsche 911 R. This car will be auctioned by RM Sotheby in Paris, France. |
 |
| The Porsche 911 R that is about to be auctioned was specially built by its previous owner to pay tribute to film legend Steve McQueen. During his lifetime, McQueen was very passionate about car and motorcycle racing. |
 |
| Not only that, this is also the only "unboxed" Porsche 911 R to ever set foot in France. These things make the Porsche 911 R even more special and rare. |
 |
| This one-of-a-kind Porsche 911 R is painted in a custom Slate Grey. Two silver stripes are added to the hood as accents. The doors of the one-of-a-kind 911 R also feature the lettering “Porsche” in gold, matching the brake calipers. |
 |
| Step inside this Porsche 911 R and you'll be greeted by a black leather interior and racing-style seats with a beautiful wolf's tooth pattern. There's also a French inscription on the door sills that reads "pièce de résistance," which translates to "masterpiece." |
 |
| In addition to the above-mentioned unique details, the Porsche 911 R still uses a 4.0-liter, naturally aspirated, flat-six gasoline engine. The engine produces a maximum capacity of 500 horsepower and a maximum torque of 460 Nm at 6,250 rpm. Thanks to that, the Porsche 911 R can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.7 seconds and reach a maximum speed of 323 km/h. |
 |
| Weighing in at just 1,370 kg, the 911 R is one of the lightest members of the famous Porsche 911 range. Notably, the Porsche 911 R only comes with a 6-speed manual transmission. This is one of the most loved details of the Porsche 911 R. |
