TECHART GTstreet Cabriolet – a 630hp drop-top 911 turbo

TECHART GTstreet Cabriolet

TECHART will hold the world premiere of its latest creation, the new GTstreet convertible, based on the new Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet.

Since that powerful 480 horsepower engine was too slow, TECHART increased to a crazy 630 horses with the top speed now reaching 214mph. While TECHART did not say anything in the press release about how they modified the engine or what the new 0-60 time is, we’re definitely sure it’s significant improvement over the 3.8 seconds of the standard 911 Turbo convertible.

Honestly, this doesn’t look like a world premiere to us. Heck, this car is almost the exact same thing we saw at the Essen Motor Show. Come on TECHART; at least take it over 650 horses and do something different. Even the original GTstreet produces 630 horsepower.

In hall 2 of the 78th International Geneva Auto-Salon, the world premiere of TECHART Automobildesign will be unveiled. Here, the new TECHART GTstreet convertible will be presented to the press and international public; the car is based on the Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet.

Uncompromisingly sporty, unreservedly suitable for everyday use. TECHART is continuing this traditional philosophy with its GTstreet convertible. Since 2001, when the Porsche 911 Turbo model from the 996 series was used, vehicles bearing the TECHART GTstreet logo have been among the fastest and highest performing road-worthy sports vehicles in the world.

The new TECHART GTstreet is continuing this impressive trend, based on the current Porsche 911 Turbo generation. At the world premiere on 4th March 2008, this convertible model will stand alongside the GTstreet Coupé, which was officially launched in Geneva in spring 2007 and caused a real sensation.

Unmistakable characteristic appearance and breath-taking performance. The TECHART GTstreet convertible now develops 463 kW (630 hp) and can reach a maximum speed of 345 km/h.
