Dua Lipa Unveils Custom Porsche 911 GT3 RS At Monaco GP; Check Pics
Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Dua Lipa has unveiled a custom Porsche 911 GTR RS. Called the Dua Lipa Rennstall GT3 RS, the car has been developed under what the brand calls a "unique collaboration dedicated to Porsche racing." The singer also took a ride around the streets of Monaco during the F1 race weekend after taking a look at the 911 GT3 Cup racecars at the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup race during the GP weekend. Built for performance, the car gets a unique design with bold graphics. It consists of colours like tropical blue and peach frost with the German automaker's hexagon patterns, which are all in sync with Dua Lipa's style. On the side, it gets Dua Lipa Rennstall's wordings. This is a German word that means a racing team in English. The aesthetics of the car are further enhanced by the extensive aero package consisting of multiple prominent elements. It gets a DRS-capable massive spoiler and a central mounted radiator for optimised performance. Supporting the characteristics of the car are lightweight components like a carbon fibre roof and magnesium wheels, by reducing the weight of the machine. On the inside, the Porsche Dua Lipa Rennstall GT3 RS gets hand-stitched leather with metallic detailing. This is complemented by the presence of an infotainment system and a dashboard. These elements follow the same pattern as the exterior with Dual-Lipa's style and aesthetics. Powering the unique-looking machine is a 4.0-litre naturally aspirated flat-six engine. This unit, at the highest level of its performance, puts out 518 hp of power and 465 Nm of peak torque. The power is transferred to the wheels using a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. The car is a representation of collaboration, which started in 2023 when Dua Lipa co-directed a short film for Porsche's "Dream in Electric" initiative featuring the all-electric Macan. Sharing her enthusiasm, Dua Lipa shared pictures of the car on her social media, which swiftly captured the interest of both her fans and car enthusiasts.
