This 2016 Porsche 911 R is #538 of 991 examples manufactured during a single model year, and it was purchased in 2019 by the last owner, who has added approximately 152 of its 291 indicated miles. It is finished in white with red stripes over Tarpan Brown leather and Pepita houndstooth cloth and is powered by a 4.0-liter flat-six linked with a six-speed manual transaxle and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes the Sport Chrono Package, 20″ center-lock alloy wheels, carbon-ceramic brakes with yellow calipers, a front-axle lift system, LED headlights with PDLS, a speed-activated rear spoiler, carbon-fiber full bucket seats, and a Bose sound system. This 991 911 R is offered with a window sticker, the owner’s manual, service records, an accident-free Carfax report, and a clean title.

The 911 R was a limited-production variant developed in the spirit of the 1967 homologation special of the same name. Styling was based on that of the contemporary 911 GT3, with construction elements borrowed from the GT3 RS including a magnesium roof panel and a carbon-fiber hood. The model also featured a carbon-fiber deck lid and front fenders, a model-specific front lip and rear underbody splitter, a retractable spoiler, and an aluminum grille.

This example is finished in white with red stripes and black side graphics with red Porsche script, and additional details include LED headlights with PDLS, clear taillights, fog lights, and a speed-activated rear spoiler. Paint protection film has been applied to the front end.

The 20″ alloy wheels feature center-locking hubs and are mounted with Michelin tires. Adjustable suspension underpinnings and rear-axle steering were shared with the contemporary GT3, though specially tuned for the 911 R. Stopping power is provided by yellow six- and four-piston monobloc calipers over ceramic-composite rotors at each corner. The optional front-axle lift raises the car on command to help prevent scraping.

The carbon-fiber full bucket seats are upholstered in Tarpan Brown leather with Pepita houndstooth cloth inserts, “911 R” embroidery on the headrests, and contrasting stitching that extends to the center armrest, shift boot, and door panels. Carbon-fiber trim accents the cabin, and additional appointments include the Light Design Package, Voice Control, air conditioning, a Bose sound system, cruise control, and PCM infotainment with navigation.

A plaque on the dashboard denotes the car as #538 of 991 examples produced for the model year.

The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 225-mph speedometer and a 10k-rpm tachometer as well as gauges for oil temperature, oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level. The optional Sport Chrono Package added a stopwatch atop the dashboard. The digital odometer indicates 291 miles, approximately 152 of which were added under previous ownership.

The naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six was shared with the contemporary GT3 RS and was factory rated at 500 horsepower and 339 lb-ft of torque.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle and a limited-slip differential with Porsche Torque Vectoring. The car is equipped with a single-mass flywheel and a reinforced clutch.

The window sticker shows initial delivery to Porsche of South Shore in Freeport, New York, along with factory colors, equipment, options, and a total price of $208,520.
