911 GT3 Touring Package Techart

Just over a year after it was revealed, the Germans at Techart presented a package of improvements for one of the most radical versions of the iconic sports car from the Zuffenhausen house. That was the time it took for the specialist located in Leonberg to adjust all the details of the aerodynamic kit that is already offered to new owners of the new Porsche 911 GT3.

The package adds extra aggressiveness to the two-door model, as well as to the special version of the 911 GT3 Touring Package, thanks to the exposed carbon fiber covering some of the bodywork, which will go on sale next summer. Of course, the addendums do not lose the main essence of the model, but they represent an important visual reinforcement that makes it stand out from any angle. From the front, it powerfully draws attention to the 15 millimeters of extra width that it gains in the front fenders, now with screens integrated in the height of the wheel arches and with the seal of the tuning specialist.

Of course, the front bumper that gives away this GT3 for its large air intakes and distinguishes it from the rest of the versions, is also made of lightweight material, such as the spoiler that extends across the entire lower lip and rises at the ends. , prominent enough to visually connect with the side skirts. The rear-view mirror housings reveal the attractive material matrix, as does the rear spoiler that integrates the aerodynamic diffuser and the two centrally positioned tailpipes.

Techart left nothing to chance, offering different finishes to the taste of customers, betting on matte or glossy finishes, and even the possibility of replacing all the pieces and making the creation even more exclusive by using forged carbon. The carbon package is completed with a new, specific rear spoiler of the same voluminous size as the series model, which, in addition, has an additional air intake on the tailgate, above the name and the tail lights. Underneath it, a piece of glass has the letters of the name of the preparer with a three-dimensional appearance.

Of course, for an extra price, forged alloy wheels can be mounted in the purest style of maximum competition, with central locking nut and an attractive turbine design. They are the 'Formula VII', and Techart warns that it will also offer them in the new 911 Carrera GTS. Measuring no less than 20 inches at the front and 21 inches at the rear. If the exterior aesthetic becomes imposing and brutal, the interior atmosphere could not be less. For the most demanding, the German tuner's catalog contains everything desirable and more, with leather and Alcantara upholstery, for example, for the steering wheel, as well as decorative carbon moldings. The only thing that has been respected is the 6-cylinder, 4.0-liter boxer engine that delivers a maximum power of 510 hp, although it doesn't take long to be retouched.
