Porsche 997 Turbo

The vehicle in detail

Mistaking this Carrera white Turbo for a ‘regular’ Porsche is a hard mistake to make. The front spoiler and splitter, side skirts and rear bumper together with the wing have been replaced with Techart’s more aerodynamic variants and in this example also combined with a series of details in carbon fiber such as wing blades and air intakes on the rear fenders together with Techart’s Formula sport rims. It’s an aggressive thing to lay eyes on. A contrast is glimpsed through the window, which is revealed when you open the driver’s door. One step over the carbon fiber entry strip and you are welcomed by a full leather interior in Terracotta with continuous elements in white. Details that, like the rest of the car’s modifications, have been made by Techart. In front of the driver is a facelifted steering wheel with real paddles and a steering wheel rim in alcantara. The paddles have been programmed to the car’s Tiptronic box, which has also received Techart’s software. Together, an upgrade that is welcomed. The sports seats together with the headliner break the color palette and get black in this otherwise orange-red interior.

But neither the exterior nor the interior are the highlights here. That honor goes to the powertrain. The 3.6L six has received a larger turbo unit and together with a sports exhaust and an upgraded cooling system and software, the car delivers 620hp and 800nm ​​to all four wheels. Numbers that carry with them a certain respect when you press the right pedal. A wonderfully unique car in wonderful condition and with binders of documentation.
