Porsche 963 Straßenversion

[ProjectWHaT]

Porsche teases a street version of the 963 LMDh. I assume it'll likely mostly be made by Multimatic given that they make the 963 and have a lot of experience turning race cars into road cars like the Mustang GTD and Ford GT.

I do want to mention that Porsche was close to doing this last time when they made the 919 road car design concept

Official name is 963 RSP

Looks like it'll be a one-off and the RSP might be referring to Roger Seale Penske who runs the factory program with 4 of 5 wins across IMSA & the WEC. Also makes sense why they teased it with a one-off 917 as well, then.

But returning to that unusual name for a moment: it's worth pointing out that Penske Porsche Motorsport team owner and Porsche racing factory partner Roger Penske's middle name is Seale. Penske, arguably the most successful individual team owner in auto racing history, operates the factory program that won four of five possible championships across the 2024 IMSA and FIA WEC seasons. If Porsche were to give one outside customer a road-going 963, Penske would make sense as the most likely owner.

Whether or not the car is being prepared for Roger Penske, we know that it is a one-off. The brand's YouTube video description refers to the 963 RSP as a "one-of-one vehicle," suggesting that this is a single example built for something very specific, rather than a concept for a future limited production offering. We should see the car around the 2025 24 Hours of Le Mans; that race is set for June 14th, so the car should be revealed at some point in the next two weeks.

I would've thought that RSP stood for "Renn Sport Prototype," kinda like the name origin for the other Porsches with the "RS" name.
