Originally, Porsche has presented the Active Rear Steering with the 918 Spyder Concept and now the all-new 2014 Porsche 911 GT3 comes with the same one as standard. The active rear-wheel steering drastically helps the handling and this means faster lap times and incredible traction improvement.
The Active Rear Steering will turn the rear wheels in opposite direction of the front ones at speeds of up to 50 km/h (31 mph), while beyond that barrier, the rear wheels are going to turn in the same direction to improve stability. This is possible thanks to two actuators which are in charge of steering the rear wheels up to 1.5 degrees.
2014 Porsche 911 GT3 is powered by a 3.8 liter flat-six – 475 HP (349 kW) and 438 Nm (324 lb-ft) of torque. 0-100 km/h in 3.5 seconds and a top speed of 315 km/h (195 mph).
Here is a short video demonstrating, how the innovative system works!

Here are several suggestion about the look of the 991 GT3. The 2014 Porsche 911 GT3 will hit the European market in the next year, but until then Wildspeed showed several renderings in different colours. The pictures show a possible look for the final production model Porsche 991 GT3.The track model comes with a lot of aerodynamics elements, but the most distinguishable is the massive rear wing. There is also a new rear diffuser with two centrally mounted exhausts pipes, a new front hood with air vents and different types front bumpers and lip spoilers for them.There is no information about the engine, but probably the GT3 991 will be powered by a 3.8 liter flat-six with 470HP (346 kW). However, the GT3 will have its RS and RS 4.0 version with mighty power units.Stay tuned for more information.
