Built to celebrate Rennsport Reunion V at California’s Mazda
Raceway Laguna Seca, Porsche created a limited-production model of its 911
Carrera GTS coupe. Appropriately dubbed the Rennsport Reunion edition, 25
examples were built and quickly purchased by collectors as soon as they were
announced.
Conceived by the late Bob
Carlsen, then head of Media Relations for Porsche Cars North America and former
Porsche factory driver and well-known vintage racer Brian Redman, the pair believed
that a gathering of like-minded enthusiasts centered around Porsche’s most
iconic road and racing cars could be successful. Choosing to host the first
Rennsport Reunion at Lime Rock Park, Connecticut, in July of 2001, the event
quickly became a mainstay in the Porsche community. The second and third
Rennsport Reunions were held at Daytona International Speedway in 2004 and
2007, and then relocated to Laguna Seca in 2011, 2015, and most recently 2018.
All six events have proven tremendously successful, drawing hundreds of
entrants and thousands of paying spectators.
Each Rennsport Reunion
GTS coupe was painted Fashion Grey – a paint-to-sample color well known to
enthusiasts that dates back to the 356 – and further outfitted with black and
red stripes on the doors, roof, hood, and rear decklid. Inside, the black
interior features both leather and Alcantara. Optional extras include the
desirable 18-way adjustable sports seats and an upgraded Bose stereo system.
Further differentiating it from other GTS coupes, the dashboard and door-sill
covers are finished in carbon fiber and boast Rennsport Reunion Edition
identification. The Rennsport Reunion logo appears on the center console. The
Sport design steering wheel, door panel trim, floor mats, and both seat headrests
are all stitched in contrasting Carmine Red, a color that also appears on the
seat belts and tachometer face.
Delivered new to Florida,
this example has been garage-kept and preserved in virtually as-new condition
since leaving the production line. Today, it has been driven less than 50 miles
from new, making it perhaps the lowest mileage example in existence and a true
collector’s item. Importantly, it comes with all its delivery paperwork,
original window sticker, and original owners’ manuals.
With the introduction of
the 992-generation and turbocharged second-generation 991 Carreras, the
naturally aspirated 991 models will continue to be well regarded by collectors
and enthusiasts and within the scope of the GTS models, the Rennsport Reunion
Editions are clearly the most desirable.
