RML P39 40th Special Edition

RML Group is known for its interesting projects such as converting the Aston Martin Vulcan racer into a road legal car. This year they celebrate their 40th birthday, and on that occasion they presented the P39 40th Special Edition.

The P39 40th Special Edition is based on the Porsche 911 Turbo S (992.1) modified to resemble the racing 911 GT1 of the 1990s, designed by Tony Hatter and Norbert Singer. We saw something similar in August when RML introduced the P39 Kit.

It’s powered by a turbocharged 3.8-liter 6-cylinder boxer engine that delivers 900 hp (662 kW) and 737 lb-ft (1,000 Nm) of torque, instead of the 650 hp (478 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) that has a Porsche 911 Turbo S.

With adaptive body aerodynamics and a longer wheelbase, in Track mode and at a speed of 250 km/h, the car’s cornering grip is 4.5 times greater than that of the 911 Turbo S. Also, the driver can choose Tour mode, which provides additional ground clearance, and the adaptive suspension is softer and more comfortable. Inside, the rear seats have been removed and a roll cage has been installed.

The company said that the P39 40th Special Edition can reach 100 km/h (62 mph) 0.2 seconds faster than the standard 911 Turbo S, and has a top speed of 330 km/h (205 mph). Also, they claim that it is 4 seconds faster than the current Porsche 911 GT3 RS on the Nürburgring Nordschleife.

RML Group will produce only 10 units of the P39 40th Special Edition and each will cost 578,000 euros. The price does not include the donor Porsche 911 Turbo S.
