TECHART is the world’s number one Porsche Tuner, combining high-tech design and manufacturing with the highest quality materials to present a truly unique vehicle that defines you.

The GTStreet R is based on the PORSCHE 911 Turbo S, and keeps that model’s 3.8-litre flat-six, seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and four-wheel drive. However, a remap, new turbos and a new exhaust liberate an extra 138bhp and 125lb ft of torque, pushing the totals to 710bhp and 678lb ft. The result is a claimed 0-62mph time of 2.7sec – 0.2sec quicker than Porsche’s figure for the Turbo S – and a top speed of 211mph (up 6mph).

Its carbonfibre bodywork, massive double-decked rear wing, GT3 RS-style front wheelarch vents, wider arches and the new intake scoop atop the engine cover may all look exuberant, but this car has substance to back up its wild appearance.

There are 24 numbered, limited-edition “prints” of this artwork remaining for sale, from a total edition of 25.
