We've shown you tons of Porsche 911 GT3 RS PDKs whose owners had decided to take their cars down the customization route, but even in this Zuffenhausen tuning realm, few cars manage to sound as beastly as the one we're here to give you today.
Perhaps the most interesting part of this aural story is that this GT3 RS didn't need too much custom attention to develop the kind of voice that can easily rival any supercar out there, naturally aspirated V10 Lamborghini Huracan included.

In fact, as DoctaM3, the Youtuber behind this clip explains, this Porscha is only gifted with a Sharkwerks exhaust. However, the trick here is that we're dealing with the aftermarket developer's Race exhaust, which happens to get pretty close to a straight pipe experience.

The custom hardware allows the 4.0-liter flat-six occupying the rear section of the supercar to fully express its feelings and emotions. And, despite being filmed on the street, the clip sees the driver welding the throttle to the floor and keeping it there for quite some time and on multiple occasions.

Much to our delight, the Sharwerks 911 GT3 RS went on a cruise with other supercars, such the said Lamborghini Huracan (a Spyder), a McLaren 650S, a Porsche 911 Turbo and other uber-fast machines that can sweep aficionados off their feet.

So while we usually invite you to turn up the volume before hitting the play button, this is one occasion when you might just want to protect your speakers.

P.S.: This piece of footage also gives us a perfect occasion to admire the wide hips of the Rennsport Neunelfer, with the GoPro being mounted in the perfect position for this. After all, the GT3 RS, which is one of the exceptions to the 911's understated look rule, fully deserves such video treatment.
