Very confused to see this on Sunday flying around the Ring.

It appears to be a 991 GT3 RS or at least a 991 with an RS aerokit - didn't think this was possible unless Porsche are testing, but confused if it is an RS as to why it's got normal wheels on and not centrelocks...

Anyone know anything more?

Looks like a stock 991 C2/S with add-on 997 GT3 RS rear spoiler and (unpleasant IMO) stick-on front spoiler. Big give-aways for me are :-

- seems like ke-sportwagen.de are a specialised tuning / styling company
- exhaust is not in centre (as we would expect of a GT3 and as we already saw in other spy shots)
- lack of any form of disguise which Porsche normally use
- lack of centre-locks as you say

So my guess is it's either a customer 991 S already fettled by sportwagen.de or...as it's also got KE in the reg, it's their own car being used to develop a 991 tuning package ??

Nice photos though smokin

Not sure about that, check the website, tuner site. Most probably a 991 with bespoke lip and wing, and not a very attractive one at that.

Edit to add - got beaten to it by 'OggyDJ'
