February 27, 2009 | CATEGORIES: Porsche

A few years ago Porsche decided to stop production of their popular Porsche Carrera GT but the car still gets a lot of interest nowadays. A lot of car tuners came out with different versions of Porsche’s supercar and the one made by Gemballa called “Mirage GT” is one of the most popular tuning packages for the GT because it has an aggressive body kit and a lot of color combinations and soft finishes. The tuner made a new version called “Mirage GT Carbon Edition” and even though they don’t offer too many details, the package seems pretty great. It has a lot of carbon fiber elements and a two tone Pearl Wite and Black paint. Gemballa announced some performance specifications for their latest project and the Mirage GT Carbon Edition is equipped with a 670 HP engine and could accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.7 seconds.

The guys from 9ff have a huge need for speed and they spent the first half of 2008 to improve the 987 HP engine for Porsche GT 9. With this engine the car is even faster than a Bugatti Veyron and it’s maximum speed was 409 km/h. Going over 400 km/h is an incredible achievement but the guys from 9ff wanted to create the fastest car in the world. The record, 411.71 km/h, held my an Ultimate Aero SSC was almost imposible to brake so the guys from 9ff spent the rest of the year improving the GT. The new version is called GT9 R and it’s engine can develop 1120 HP and a torque of 1050 Nm. The guys from 9ff kept technical details secret but this car could be the fastest street car in the world.
