Trofeo Cars are delighted to present not one, but two PK Sport Porsche 996 GT3 R’s for sale – now upgraded to ‘GT3 RS’ specification.

Porsche returned to the glory of the old days with the 996 GT3 R, built in a total of 61 units. At the GT3 R’s first race, the 1999 24 Hours of Le Mans, two prototypes emphatically claimed first and second place in the LMGT class. The 996’s domination ensued in 2000 with GT3 R’s claiming a clean sweep on the podium, followed by the same result with the GT3 RS in 2001, 2002, and the seasons to come.  The 996 GT3 R, the later 996 GT3 RS and - in its last evolution - the GT3 RSR, made the following years the most successful GT racing years in Porsche’s history.

Chassis #082 has a rich motorsport history, including a spectacular private-team entry at Le Mans, and two full seasons in the American Le Mans Series. #082 was fitted with factory ‘RS’ spec upgrades in 2003 and recently restored to its 2003 24 Hours of Le Mans livery. Driven primarily by Piers Masarati, Robin Liddell and David Warnock, #082 claimed a fantastic 6th in the GT class and 23rd overall at the 80th anniversary of Le Mans where the Bentley Speed 8’s finished 1st and 2nd. PK Sport were invited to participate and entered as the only British Porsche team in GT. Entry alone to the most famous endurance race in the world was a huge feat for the privately-run PK Sport team and to complete a top six line-up full of 996 GT3 RS’s remains an incredible achievement.

The whole car, including engine, gearbox and suspension, was completely rebuilt between December 2004 and January 2005 in preparation for Sebring, but it did not enter the race and has not competed since.

Major services completed by Trofeo Cars in late 2023 and early 2025 – full details available.

The car is a time capsule through and through with its original scrutineering stickers still evident on the roll cage and a full history file with race results.

#082 is eligible to race in numerous historic races, including Peter Auto Endurance Racing Legends, Le Mans Classic, HSR Daytona Classic 24 Hour and Sebring Classic 12 Hour.
