Talos, a boutique high-performance restomod manufacturer, has revealed the Talos 911 RT, a heavily modified interpretation of the latest Porsche 911 GT3 RS. Built from the 992.2-generation model, the project reflects the company’s vision of what an even more uncompromising version of the GT3 RS could become.
The standard Porsche 911 GT3 RS is already regarded as one of the sharpest and most capable road-going sports cars available, engineered with a strong emphasis on race-inspired performance, lightweight construction and aerodynamic efficiency. Talos aimed to intensify those characteristics by redesigning key elements of the car while reducing weight and increasing power.
One of the most dramatic changes comes from the exterior, which is constructed entirely from exposed carbon fiber. The company drew inspiration from Porsche’s track-focused 911 R, creating a body that eliminates traditional paint, graphics and decorative elements. Aside from gold-colored wheels, the car’s appearance is dominated by raw carbon surfaces designed to emphasize its motorsport character.
The extensive use of lightweight materials results in a weight reduction of 176 pounds compared to the original GT3 RS. To achieve the redesign, Talos used 3D scanning technology on the 911 R to accurately shape and integrate the custom body panels into the updated platform.
Beyond the visual transformation, Talos also upgraded the car’s suspension and performance systems. The 911 RT is equipped with a custom Ohlins TTX suspension setup that allows drivers to tailor the car’s behavior for both road use and track driving. The adjustable system can even be controlled through a smartphone application, giving owners additional flexibility depending on driving conditions.
Power output has also been increased. Talos boosted the car from the standard 500 horsepower to 540 horsepower, though the company has not disclosed the exact modifications responsible for the gain. According to Talos, the revised setup delivers smoother and more progressive power delivery while maintaining the engaging driving dynamics expected from a naturally aspirated performance car.
Exclusivity plays a major role in the project’s appeal. Talos plans to build only 20 examples of the 911 RT, with each customer receiving extensive personalization options to create a unique specification. No two cars are expected to be configured alike.
The cost reflects the rarity and craftsmanship involved. Pricing for the Talos 911 RT conversion begins at approximately $1.15 million before the donor car is included. Buyers must also supply their own Porsche 911 GT3 RS, pushing the estimated total investment close to $1.5 million.
With its exposed carbon construction, added performance and highly limited production, the Talos 911 RT represents an extreme reinterpretation of an already celebrated performance icon.
