This RS was ordered in the signature color of Speed Yellow along with Touring front and rear spoilers and stainless-steel exhaust tips. The body of the RS differs from a standard Carrera with its seam-welded panels, aluminum front bonnet, and thinner glass windows. The headlight washers were also omitted for weight savings. The original paint has been preserved and the car is described to be in pristine condition.

As with past RS models, the cabin of the 993 RS was designed with a focus on weight savings. The rear seats were removed along with soundproofing material, and spartan door panels were utilized featuring traditional pull straps. This example was optioned with power windows, air conditioning, RS-logo door entry guards, an aluminum shift knob and handbrake lever, chromed instrument bezels, yellow instrument needles, and Exclusive two-tone black leather Sport Seats with gray inserts and Speed Yellow painted seatbacks. The seller confirms all gauges and accessories to be fully functional including the factory air conditioning system.

The Carrera RS received a special air-cooled Type M64/20 3.8L flat-six engine featuring lightweight forged pistons, dual oil coolers, a Varioram intake manifold, lightened rocker arms, enlarged intake valves, and revised Motronic engine programming. As much as 300 HP and 262 lb.-ft of torque are sent to the rear wheels through a G50/31 6-speed manual gearbox with modified gear ratios, a limited-slip differential, and a short-throw shifter.
