Joe Rogan, a dyed-in-the-wool Porsche fan, has expanded his collection once again, this time with a bespoke build crafted by The RSR Project. Revealed recently, the car has been nicknamed “Silver 2,” and it embodies the boutique builder’s philosophy of creating modern tributes to Porsche’s racing legends. While unmistakably a 911 at its core, the car’s execution is far from ordinary, blending concours-level craftsmanship with the kind of visceral driving experience Rogan is known to seek out.
From the outside, Silver 2 presents as a faithful homage to the classic RSR era. Its gloss-silver paint finish gives the impression of raw metal sculpted into Porsche’s timeless silhouette. The stance is punctuated by wide steel flares, a massive ducktail spoiler, and a center-exit exhaust that leaves no doubt about its motorsport inspiration. Rolling on period-style Fuchs wheels wrapped in Michelin rubber, the car manages to look purposeful even while standing still, the kind of machine that appears ready for track duty before the ignition is ever turned.
The cabin continues this theme with a stripped-back and re-trimmed interior designed to capture the 1970s racing vibe. Black fixed-back bucket seats dominate the cockpit, secured with bright red lap harnesses. A cross-woven insert pattern, unique to this build, is carried across the dash to add texture and character, while lightweight carpeting and simple finishes keep the focus on driving. The overall impression is one of precision and restraint, a space that feels equal parts authentic and bespoke.
Every RSR Project creation begins with a 3.2 Carrera donor car. From there, the shell is transformed with steel flares, fiberglass panels, and a long-hood profile that recalls the legendary 2.8 RSR. Mechanical work is no less intensive: engines and transmissions are rebuilt from the ground up, suspension and brakes are upgraded, and the result is a car engineered to be driven hard, not just admired under show lights. Silver 2 follows this formula exactly, promising Rogan a driving experience as authentic as its styling.
This latest addition joins a garage already rich with Porsche history. Rogan’s 1993 964 RS America, finished in red, remains one of his most cherished cars. “I have a Porsche, the 1993 RS America. It’s the rawest car I have… it only has like 300 horsepower… no power steering, no air conditioning… and it’s so fun.
Every mile, every little thing, you’re feeling it in your hands,” he once said. Alongside it sits a SharkWerks-tuned 997 GT3 RS with a 3.9-liter engine, a car frequently featured in his conversations and videos, as well as a rare 993 Gunther Werks 911, one of only 25 built, which Rogan describes as extreme and visceral.
Silver 2 doesn’t replace these icons but complements them, giving Rogan another distinctive Porsche that reflects both his taste and The RSR Project’s dedication to building cars that live up to their motorsport roots.
