H Donkervoort μετά το D8 GTO-S, παρουσιάζει και την γρηγορότερη έκδοση του μοντέλου της. Η εταιρία το περιγράφει “ως την επιστροφή του θρύλου”, αφού το 2005, το D8 270 RS σημείωσε τον ταχύτερο γύρο για αυτοκίνητο παραγωγής στο Nurburgring. Σύμφωνα με την εταιρία, η εξέλιξη του D8 GTO-RS ξεκίνησε από λευκό χαρτί και χρειάστηκε 2 χρόνια για να ολοκληρωθεί. Αυτό, θα είναι διαθέσιμο από τον Ιούνιο με τιμή που θα ξεκινά από τα €151.173 προ φόρων.
Το Donkervoort D8 GTO-RS διαθέτει βελτιωμένη αεροδυναμική, νέο bodykit, νέους τροχούς και δυνατότερο πεντακύλινδρο 2.5-λίτρων TFSI κινητήρα προερχόμενο από την Audi. Μόλις 40 D8 GTO-RS θα κατασκεύασε η Donkervoort, με τα 21 να έχουν ήδη πουληθεί. Έτσι απομένουν μόλις 19 για όποιον ενδιαφέρεται.

Donkervoort D8 GTO-RS
With the Donkervoort D8 GTO-RS the legendary RS is back! And its ambitions are just as great as those of its predecessor, which drew the world’s attention when it set the lap record at the Nürburgring Nordschleife in 2004 and 2006.
This will be the ultimate D8 GTO! Completely redesigned over the past two years – both in terms of design and at the technical level. Even meaner, more extreme and slightly larger in size. This is clear at a glance from the design of the nose and front end: the GTO-RS has an even wilder look in its eyes.
Lots of work was also put into the improved aerodynamics, and the engine management of the Audi 2.5L R5 TFSI was optimised with the assistance of long-term partner Bosch for even more acceleration power and driving comfort. In addition to the EU6 application, the collaboration with Bosch also led to several other lap time-enhancing features, such as launch control and a double-clutch function.
Thanks to a new suspension, the GTO-RS has a wider track width, benefits of which include a stronger grip on the front axle. The brake system was also completely redeveloped.
Even more aesthetically refined, higher quality, with greater technical and functional performance; this is also reflected in the new interior of the D8 GTO-RS. Still fully made-to-measure. Also new: the RS is fitted with a carbon fibre tunnel section.
Mind you, despite all these options designed to provide the ultimate and most extreme performance, the D8 GTO-RS remains a completely street-legal sports car with associated comfort level. The lightest and fastest GTO ever built!
The Donkervoort D8 GTO-RS will be introduced in the summer of 2016 as a limited edition of 40 cars and has a starting price of €151,173 excl. taxes. So far, already 21 units have been sold among the Donkervoort Ambassadors in the pre-sale period.
