Porsche based GT9: details and pricing

I was one of those who thought that the Bugatti Veyron would always be the ultimate supercar, but I was mistaken as the Porsche-based GT9 will have enough power to make the Veyron seem slow.

Not only does the GT9 have the power but it also has the looks, this is thanks to the work by German tuner 9ff.

The tuner has been developing the GT9 for many years, but this is the first time that we have been able to give you details and pricing of the supercar.

The front of the car looks much like a 911 GT3, but the chassis used is very different as it has been constructed from carbon and kevlar fibre, this is lightweight but very strong.

The GT9 sits low at just 1.18 metres tall; the bodykit makes the car look low to the ground. Both of these features help the car achieve a top speed of 254mph, that’s just 1mph more than the Bugatti Veyron.

The engine used is a from the 996-generation Porsche 911 Turbo however; this powerplant has seen an upgrade. The turbos have been reworked; there is a gold-finished induction plate as well as dry sump lubrication.

All of this helps the engine push out 973bhp and a 0-60mph time of 3.4 seconds.

There will only be 20 of these GT9’s made, with a price tag of £394,000.
