2025 Porsche 963 RSP

The Porsche 963 RSP is a unique, road-legal version of the 963 race car, created in 2025 as a one-off commission for Roger S. Penske. Unlike the track-focused original, this car was specially modified to be driven on public roads, particularly for its debut on the streets near Le Mans.

To make the transition from race car to road car, the 963 RSP underwent several key changes. It was equipped with a raised ride height and softer dampers for comfort and drivability. The electronic systems were reprogrammed so that the headlights and taillights functioned more like those of a standard road vehicle. The bodywork was altered to cover the exposed wheel arches, and Michelin wet-weather compound tyres were used for improved road grip. A horn was also added, which is a legal requirement for road use.

These modifications allowed the car to meet specific criteria and gain special road registration from the French authorities. As a result, the 963 RSP is a rare example of a modern endurance racing prototype adapted for the road—bearing number plates and paying tribute to one of motorsport’s most influential figures.
