Description
Rare
opportunity to buy a Porsche numbered car; one of only 1,960 made; two owners
from new; 74,500 miles with 8 service stamps; advisory-free MOT; a true
collector's car that can be used daily
This
car takes its name from the Porsche Type 718 RS60 Spyder, the racer that Hans
Herrmann and Olivier Gendebien drove to outright victory in the 1960 12 Hours of
Sebring. At £45,400 new the RS60 carries a £5,500 premium over the standard
Boxster S on which it’s based, but it does come loaded with desirable extras and
it’s limited to a reasonably low-volume run of 1,960 examples, this car being
number 1,946 makes it one of the last 20 to be
registered.
The front end of this special model is from Porsche’s SportDesign
Package and distinguishes the RS60 Spyder significantly from the Boxster S. A
modified sports exhaust system combined with a dual tailpipe increases
engine output to 303bhp. Spacer plates move the 19-inch Porsche SportDesign
wheels outwards to fill the wheelarches nicely. Likewise featured as
standard, Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) ensures both sporting and
comfortable driving pleasure at all times.
Paintwork in GT Silver Metallic contrasts nicely with the
Carrera Red natural leather interior and complements the red soft top roof (the
other option was dark grey natural leather in conjunction with a black
roof).

This is a great opportunity to buy a numbered car from Porsche,
entering you into a very special small group of lucky owners. The car drives as
it should and sounds out of this world thanks to the 6-cylinder normally
aspirated 3.2 engine with the sports switchable exhaust system found on the
RS60s.
