At Autohaus Middle East, we pride ourselves on working with the finest performance brands in the world—and the recent achievements of the SSR RS across the GCC are a clear reflection of what that partnership can produce.

In collaboration with our performance partner, SSR Performance, the SSR RS—based on the Porsche 992 GT3 RS—delivered back-to-back record-breaking lap times in both Bahrain and Dubai. These milestones were achieved using the complete SSR RS upgrade package, developed in Munich and supported regionally by Autohaus ME.

Record in Bahrain – Fastest Street-Legal Porsche
On January 2, 2025, during the Pure Drives Track Day at the Bahrain International Circuit, the SSR RS clocked a blistering lap time of 2:05.773, making it the fastest street-legal Porsche to ever lap the circuit. Behind the wheel was Keanu Al Azhari, whose consistent track performance has become a benchmark in the region.

Time Attack Dubai – Leading the Pack Again
Just weeks earlier, in December 2024, the same car dominated the Dubai Autodrome National Circuit, posting an equally impressive time of 1:02.837 during the Time Attack event. Once again, Keanu delivered precision driving, reinforcing the engineering excellence of the SSR RS.

These results not only celebrate technical innovation, but also highlight the growing reputation of Autohaus ME as the go-to destination in the Middle East for elite performance tuning and motorsport-grade upgrades.

We are proud to serve as the official regional representative for SSR Performance, supporting clients who demand nothing but the best from their track and street machines.
