Behind the Wheel - Porsche Carrera Across The Titles


If you were to walk up to any true Porsche aficionado and say "911 Carrera RS 2.7," I bet you would get a reaction.

In today's world, 210 horsepower and 188 lb-ft of torque isn't anything special, but combine that with a car that weighs 2149 lbs and first released in 1972, might make people a bit curious. Then, tell them all that power comes from an air cooled, naturally aspirated flat six cylinder, mounted at the back of this vehicle and you may have given the identity of this legend away.

Only 1590 Carrera RS 2.7 examples were built, starting from the unveiling model at the September 1972 Paris Auto Show and production ending in July 1973.

For me, this car is an unachievable dream, since the last one I found for sale was beyond my reach.


However, there is a way I can emulate the experince of drving this legend, thanks to Forza Horizon 4 and Forza Street and 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS and Real Racing 3 with their version of the 1972 model....
