Porsche spent three years transforming a 2018 911 GT2 RS into the Porsche Flachbau RS, a road-legal one-off inspired by the legendary “Moby Dick” flat-nose design. Created by Porsche’s Sonderwunsch division with help from Manthey engineers, the project features a reshaped front end, ultra-thin LED headlights, and a huge rear wing.

At 211 mph / 340 kph, that wing generates an incredible 1,221 lbs / 554 kg of downforce over the rear axle. Under the dramatic bodywork sits the original 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six, producing 700 hp / 710 PS.

The owner clearly valued performance over comfort. Porsche removed the stereo, satellite navigation, and sound insulation, cutting nearly 70 lbs / 32 kg from the car. The result is an exceptionally loud, raw machine that brings classic slant-nose styling into the modern era.

Would you want Porsche to offer road-legal slant-nose conversions for modern 911s? Or should designs like this remain rare one-off creations? And would you really give up the radio for 70 pounds of weight savings?
