Geneva: 2007 TechArt GTstreet (997 Turbo)


TechArt, purveyors of of superfast Porsche-based grin machines, are set to rock our world in Geneva with the next iteration of the 911 Turbo-based GTstreet. The last GTstreet appeared in 2001 and was based on the thoroughly capable 996 Turbo. With the new 997 now in the marketplace, the labcoats at TechArt apparently felt the time had come to knock everyone's socks off anew.

Power for the hornet-colored missile is a fairly adequate 630 horses coupled with 600+ lb-ft of asphalt-shredding torque. Zero to 62 mph arrives in 3.2 seconds; 124 mph comes a little more than than 7 seconds later, and the car will continue to accelerate until the speedo hits 214 mph. A new aero body kit helps keep it planted to the pavement at the extreme speeds it's capable of.
