There are plenty of owners of the 2019 Porsche 911 GT3 RS who have taken delivery of their machines. However, we have yet to feature such a Rennsport Neunelfer that has been taken down the aftermarket path. However, we are now ready to show you just that, albeit with the Rennsport Neunelfer that brought us here having merely received a set of new shoes.
We're not sure about the factory wheel spec of this Porscha, but we can tell you that the machine now packs HRE rolling hardware.

To be more precise, the 520 horsepower toy now rides on HRE 540C rims. The new units come in a black finish, thus matching multiple bits of the car.

The wheels pack a multi-spoke setup, with the thin spokes allowing us to take a good look at the stopping hardware of the vehicle. Speaking of which, the red calipers signal the presence of the standard steel brakes.

Now, we have to mention that while the wheels have definitely impacted the appearance of the rear-engined toy, there will be plenty of aficionados who see this as a downgrade.

Going past that aspect, we can't help but notice the splendid Chalk finish of the car - the vehicle doesn't come with the Weissach Package - the easiest way to tell is to check out the top panels of the car, from the frunk lid to the rear wing, which come in carbon for W-equipped units.

Speaking of the Porsche 911, we'll remind you that the German automaker is almost ready to introduce the next generation of the Neunelfer.

Prototypes of the 992 have already shown the full exterior of the 2019 Carrera (S) and we can say the same thing about the dashboard.

In fact, we've also been able to spot the 2020 Porsche 911 Turbo, as well as the 2020 Porsche 911 GT3 in production trim.
