Porsche Prices Manthey Racing Kits For 911 GT3 RS and GT2 RS
Porsche has announced U.S. availability and pricing for the Manthey Racing kit for the 911 GT3 RS.
At $116,160 before taxes and dealer installation costs, the kit is far from cheap. Adding nearly the cost of an entire base 911 Carrera to the $244,995 base price of the GT3 RS.
The Manthey Racing kit enhances mechanical and aerodynamic grip, offering a 20% increase in downforce without adding drag. At 177 mph, the car generates a maximum of 2,200 pounds of downforce.

The kit includes a massive rear wing with larger endplates, a carbon-fiber rear window panel featuring an integrated fin to divert hot air, and additional aerodynamic tweaks such as roof fins, a larger front splitter, dive planes, and an upgraded rear diffuser with larger strakes.
On the suspension front, the Manthey kit introduces stiffer coilovers and adaptive dampers designed for quicker adjustments. Braided steel brake lines improve braking performance, while optional carbon-fiber aero discs for the rear wheels and a customizable Manthey-branded towing eye round out the package.
While Porsche and Manthey haven’t yet released an official Nürburgring lap time for the GT3 RS equipped with this kit, the enhancements are expected to whittle down off the standard GT3's 6:49.32 lap time.
Porsche 991 911 GT2 RS Manthey Kit: All The Details
Porsche also confirmed the availability of a Manthey Racing kit for the prior-generation 991 911 GT2 RS, priced at $113,140 before taxes and installation.
This package brings similar aero and suspension upgrades, though it doesn’t achieve the same downforce figures as the GT3 RS kit, but with over 700 horsepower, the GT2 RS makes up for it with straight-line speed. Equipped with the Manthey Racing kit, the 991 GT2 RS laid down a 6:38.84 around the Nordsclieffe.
Both kits are available to order immediately through one of the 45 Manthey-certified U.S. Porsche Centers. Deliveries are expected by Spring, 2025.
