In Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, Porsche sees one of its most iconic models – the 911 Carrera RS 3.8 – take on the character of Mirage. Teaming up with the leader of the Autobots, Optimus Prime, Mirage is a rebellious tough guy with a good heart – qualities that many Porsche fans can easily associate with this iconic sportscar.  Five dedicated replicas – known in Hollywood as picture cars – were built just for this production. From the outside they look like this powerful variant of the type 964, but on the inside they have very special features. One of the replicas was designed for stunt sequences, another can be controlled remotely from outside of the driver’s seat while another was modified to move in reverse at high speed.

With just 55 units of the 911 Carrera RS 3.8  ever built by Porsche, it is an extremely rare sportscar.  Launched in 1993, it was designed as a homologation model so that the company could enter a racing version in the World Sportscar Championship. It was based on the wider body of the 964 Turbo and featured a striking aerodynamic package that included a more prominent front spoiler and an adjustable, one-piece rear wing. Its doors and bonnet were made from aluminium and it was fitted with thinner side glass than that of the regular type 964 in order to keep the weight down. The power itself was provided by a 3746cc, 300PS, air-cooled flat-six engine.

The GT4 RS in Racing Yellow is the most extreme version of the 718 Cayman. It features a 4.0L naturally aspirated flat-six from the 992 GT3, tuned to 493hp and 331 lb-ft of torque. With a mid-engine layout, it delivers exceptional handling and highly engaging driving experience. Boasting a 0-60 mph time of 3.2 seconds, it surpasses the GT3 RS in top speed due to lower aerodynamic drag.

First launched in 2003 with the type 996 model, the 911 GT3 RS continues benefiting from considerable innovations and features developed by Porsche Motorsport for its race cars. The current GT3 RS, based on the 911 type 992, first went on sale in 2022 and offers the highest levels of performance for the 911 platform. It boasts the largest wing yet on a production Porsche, intense aerodynamic bodywork and venting, active chassis control settings, and lightweight design. A high revving, naturally-aspirated 4.0L flat-6 outputs 518hp while a 7-speed PDK optimizes power output to the rear.

The livery pays homage to Porsche’s Salzburg factory team out of Austria and their historical moments around Le Mans in the early 1970s.
