Rare Phoenix Yellow Porsche 911 GT2 RS Weissach Goes to Auction

Featuring a paint-to-sample Phoenix Yellow Metallic finish and over $10,000 in CXX options

This 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS Weissach represents one of the most extreme road-going sports cars of the 991 generation, combining twin-turbocharged power with extensive weight-saving measures and track-focused engineering.

Now offered through RM Sotheby’s Sealed’s October 2026 sale, this example stands out for its distinctive Paint to Sample Phoenix Yellow Metallic finish, Miami Blue wheels, and exceptionally low indicated mileage. According to the auction listing, the car is configured with the desirable Weissach Package and more than $10,000 in CXX special-order options.

At the heart of the GT2 RS is Porsche’s 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six, producing 700 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. Power is delivered exclusively to the rear wheels through a seven-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission, prioritizing rapid gear changes and uninterrupted acceleration.

The result is supercar-level performance, with a claimed 0–60 mph time of approximately 2.7 seconds and a top speed of 211 mph. The GT2 RS also established its credentials on the Nürburgring Nordschleife, where a Weissach-equipped example recorded a production-car lap time of 6 minutes, 47.3 seconds in 2017.

The optional Weissach Package reinforces the car’s focus on reducing mass and improving dynamic performance. Carbon-fiber components, including the roof and front luggage-compartment lid, along with lightweight magnesium wheels and carbon-fiber chassis components, reduce weight while helping maintain structural rigidity. The package saves approximately 40 pounds compared with the standard GT2 RS configuration.

This example’s Phoenix Yellow Metallic paint provides a particularly striking contrast against its Miami Blue wheels, giving the understated engineering beneath its bodywork an unmistakably individual appearance. The extensive CXX specification further distinguishes the car from more conventionally configured GT2 RS examples.

With only 373 miles indicated, this 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS Weissach offers collectors an opportunity to acquire a minimally driven example of Porsche’s turbocharged 991-generation flagship. Its combination of rare factory specification, substantial performance capability, and the coveted Weissach Package places it firmly within the upper tier of modern Porsche collectibles.
