TECHART GTstreet RS et TECHART GTstreet Cabriolet
Dans le monde du Tuning Haute-Performance, rien que le fait de prononcer le nom de TechArt signifie business avec un énorme B.
Basé en Allemagne, et loyal à Porsche, TechArt, que nous avons eu la chance de rencontrer à Genèvre un peu plus tôt cette année, vient de dévoiler 2 nouvelles 911 monstrueuses et magnifiques.
Commençons avec la plus impressionnante des deux, la TechArt GT Street RS, une Porsche GT2 tunée pour être une terreur de la route.
En mai dernier, lorsque nous avions la GT2 en Europe, nous avions eu le souffle coupé par ses performances, proche d’une Carrera GT. Nous pensions déjà que 530hp sous le capot était impressionnant, mais là, TechArt a décidé d’apporter une petite pincée d’épice à ce moteur, qui développe cette fois, accrochez vous… 700hp et un couple impressionnant de 860Nm…Oui, oui, vous avez bien lu 700hp !
Bien sûr TechArt a aussi apporté quelques modifications sur l’aspect extérieur.
Maintenant, si vous êtes plutôt de ceux qui aiment conduire avec style, et classe, vous devriez vous pencher sur le cas de la TechArt GT Street Cabriolet, basée sur une 911 Turbo Cabriolet, une des plus puissante voiture convertible au monde, et qui propose 630hp sous le capot (contre 480 pour le 911 Turbo Coupé) et un couple de 820Nm ! Vitesse maximum ? 345km/h et un 0 à 100km/h en seulement 3.6 secondes…

TECHART GTstreet Cabriolet
uncompromisingly sporty.
With its unmistakable characteristic look, the latest GTstreet model from TECHART Automobildesign marked the world premiere of its car design at the Geneva Auto Salon 2008. The new TECHART GTstreet Cabriolet is based on the Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet and combines beauty, sportiness and dynamics.
Uncompromisingly sporty, suitable for everyday use.
With its GTstreet Cabriolet,TECHART focuses on this traditional philosophy. Since 2001, then based on the Porsche 911 Turbo model series 996, TECHART GTstreet vehicles have been among the fastest and highest performance street vehicles in the world.
An original look and breath-taking performance.
The TECHART GTstreet Cabriolet shares something visible and tangible with its successful predecessors – their genes. The
water-cooled six cylinder boxer biturbo engine with TECHART TA 097/T3 and components such as the TECHART sports air filter insert, the carbon engine styling kit, the carbon sports exhaust system, the high performance intercooler, the stainless steel exhaust manifold, the turbocharger T30 VTG, the high performance valve exhaust system with sports catalytic converter, the black chrome tail pipes and Motronic 097/T3 all add up to create the most powerful convertible yet with power of 463 kW (630 hp) and torque of 820 Nm at 4,500 rpm.
Unbroken power and super-fast implementation characterise the TECHART GTstreet Cabriolet with its top-class power transmission from the four-wheel drive system to the optional six gear manual shifter with modified transmission, the TECHART switch path reduction and ball bearing gear cables. This enables the model to reach top speeds of 345 km/h, going from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds.
The TECHART VarioPlus threaded chassis is part of the convertible as well as the TECHART GTstreet and builds on the electronically adjustable PASM absorption system of the 911 Turbo. The possibility of lowering the vehicle up to 25 mm can be individually adjusted as can the absorption system, which can be changed from ‘normal’ to ‘sport’ with
the press of a button.
The 2+2 seater convertible is fitted with the TECHART GTstreet aerodynamics kit. The GTstreet front apron with an extendable carbon fibre splitter creates downforce with the front axle and provides the radiator and front brakes with more fresh air. The TECHART GTstreet carbon fender is 10 mm wider than the series fender and therefore forms an optical feature of the convertible.
The TECHART GTstreet rear apron with integrated carbon diffuser also adds to the high degree of downforce on the back axle and sets off the convertible with its integrated black chrome tail pipes.
Uncompromisingly sporty and seductively elegant.
This defines the interior of the TECHART GTstreet Cabriolet. The leather upholstery is available in black and phantom grey
with coloured decorative stitching – with matching 3-spoke steering wheel with air bag. The optical package in red/phantom grey/carbon or matt black rounds off these additional extras. The unrivalled charm of the look attracts drivers and onlookers alike – whether on the fastest racetracks of the world or in the rush hour traffic.
