The
2009 TechArt GTstreet R is the direct successor to the Techart
GTstreet RS presented in spring 2008. The GTstreet R is
based on the Porsche
997 Turbo.
The TechArt GTstreet R is fitted with the TechArt performance
kit (TA097/T3 if you're interested) which means an engine output
of 660 horsepower (485 kW) and a maximum torque of 860 Nm @
4,600 rpm. The GTstreet R with Tiptronic S can accelerate from
0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) in just 3.4 seconds and with manual transmission
it only takes a tenth of a second longer. The top speed is in
excess of 214 mph.
The performance increase comes courtesy of new turbochargers,
large carbon
fibre inlet pipes, special intercoolers, a sports exhaust
system combined with high-performance manifolds and an improved
sports air filter.
The body and chassis modifications make for balanced downforce
on the front and back axles, while a specially adapted TechArt
VarioPlus coil over suspension system guarantees excellent handling
at high speeds and ensures extra driving stability and safety.
The aggressive styling of the bodywork includes a new aero-bonnet,
headlight trims and mirror trims, deeper sill panels and carbon
fibre roof spoiler characterize the dynamic design of the car.
Air intakes on the front spoiler and rear wing provide ventilation
for the engine, while the rear apron with its carbon fibre diffuser
and air ducts leading to the intercooler are additional special
features of the comprehensive TechArt GTstreet R aerodynamic
package.
The interior of the TechArt GTstreet R features a fully tailored
interior which can be designed to suit the customers tastes.
Striking decorative stitching and sporty highlights in individual
color combinations can be mixed with additional accessories
such as the non-slip TechArt 3-spoke sports wheel, aluminium
pedals and much more.
