This 1992 Porsche 911 Carrera RS (964) is finished in Rubystone Red (paint code L82N), a period Porsche color closely associated with the 964 Carrera Cup racing era. The car is offered on Bring a Trailer and shows approximately 110,000 kilometers (about 68,000 miles). It is powered by a naturally aspirated 3.6-liter M64/03 flat-six rated at approximately 260 horsepower and 229 lb-ft of torque, paired with a five-speed G50 manual transaxle and an asymmetrical limited-slip differential driving the rear wheels.

The Carrera RS was introduced for the 964 generation as a lightweight, higher-performance variant of the standard Carrera 2. Factory weight-reduction measures included thinner glass, reduced sound insulation, aluminum body panels, and a simplified interior. The chassis received seam welding for additional rigidity, along with revised suspension geometry, stiffer springs and dampers, and larger anti-roll bars compared with a standard 964 Carrera.

This example rides on 17-inch magnesium Cup wheels and is equipped with adjustable Bilstein coilovers and upgraded anti-roll bars. Braking is handled by four-wheel discs with ABS. The car retains hallmark RS equipment such as fixed-back Recaro bucket seats, lightweight door panels with pull straps, and reduced comfort features in keeping with the model’s original specification.

The rear decklid incorporates the speed-activated spoiler used on the 964 series, and the front trunk lid is aluminum. The listing notes a documented engine rebuild completed in September 2025, and the sale includes a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity along with service documentation. A clean Carfax report is also referenced in the auction materials.

The 964 Carrera RS was not originally sold new in the United States, and most examples now in the country were imported later under the 25-year exemption. As presented, this Rubystone Red car reflects the core factory configuration of the lightweight rear-drive RS variant developed from Porsche’s early-1990s Carrera Cup and Club Sport programs.
