Last month we wrote that the Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R driven by Paul Walker in “Fast and Furious” is for sale. Now another car associated with this famous actor has appeared on sale, but this time from his private collection. It is a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7.

It all started back in 1973 when the Carrera RS 2.7 had its premiere and was named after 356 Carrera while the RS was developed to meet the homologation requirements in motorsport. Only 1,580 cars were produced. In order to meet the sporty characteristics, which meant a reduction in weight below 1000 kg, thin steel and thinner glass were used in the construction of the car. All this resulted in the many victories that Carrera RS achieved in the FIA ​​​​races of Group 4.

The car was designed with a larger body that allowed more space for a larger engine compared to the previous 911 models, which now developed 210 hp (150 kW). It is equipped with new suspension, wider rear wheels and rear fenders for 185 / 70VR15 (front) and 215 / 60VR15 (rear) Pirelli Cinturato CN36 tires. For better aerodynamics and greater downforce, the designers have designed a duck tail. All this allowed the Carrera RS 2.7 to reach 62 mph in 5.8 seconds with a top speed of 152 mph (245 km/h).

This Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7 is powered by a naturally aspirated 2.7L flat 6-cylinder engine with 210 hp (150 kW). The car is in excellent condition with only 58,268 miles (93,774 km) on the odometer. It is painted in Light Yellow–code 62 color with Black accents, and it is decorated with chrome parts on the windows and headlights. Comes with Porsche Certificate of Authenticity and FIA paperwork.

The auction will take place on August 18-20.
