The Porsche 911 became a legend thanks to its incomparable boxer sound and its driving performance. You can usually say “Porsche-PS” x 1,5 to compare them with the competition from the premium segment. It is not for nothing that various Porsche 911 generations have won countless races on all racetracks around the world, and are still at the top today when it comes to long-distance competitions, such as the 24 hours at the Nürburgring. However, it does not seem to have reached this Porsche tuner from the USA that the XNUMX is a myth that does not exist a second time in the sports car world, because it actually dared to create a large-volume one LQ4-V8 to transplant from the Corvette in the exclusive Swabia.
Frankenstein-Porsche with V8!
But apparently there are more crazy tuners in the US than before 6-liter V8 from the Corvette C6 entered the Porsche, according to the vehicle registration document it was already one 430 PS strong V8 of unknown origin in the convertible. The Corvette V8 was recently transferred to the vehicle, crowning the savage creature.
It would be too good to be true if that were the only modification to the vehicle because in addition to the Engine swap also became the front part of one 996.2 Turbo attached as well 19 incher from the successor model 997. In order to push the already deep 911 even closer to the asphalt, a coilover installed by Yellow Speed Racing. But that's not all, because there was also another one electronic power steering Moving into the convertible from Zuffenhausen. We don't know whether to laugh or cry when we see the license plate of the car that says "NOFLAT6“Is to be read.
In our opinion, the copy is one of the worst disasters you can have with a Porsche. The heart of every Porsche fan is bleeding when he reads through the modifications that have been made to the Carrera Cabriolet.
In the interior everything remained standard.
We have no information about bizarre modifications in the interior of the 911. In our opinion, that's probably a good thing, because the engine swap alone makes the vehicle as good as worthless.
LQ4-V8 with 6 liters displacement drives the 911!
We will now go into more detail about the drive of the 911, because the V8 naturally aspirated gasoline engine with 6 liters displacement, which comes from the Corvette C6, completely ruins this youngtimer from the year 2000 from our point of view. Various parts on the V8 engine have also been modified so that nothing is standard on the drive. The power is transmitted via a Six-speed manual gearbox to the rear wheels.
Our Conclusion about this Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet:
It doesn’t matter if said 430 PS slumbering in the engine compartment, or whether further modifications have tickled various horses out, we simply cannot warm up to such a project. If you feel different, or if you are simply curious, then you can take a look at the corresponding picture gallery that we have provided for you. We know of course that "Beauty is always in the eye of the beholder". However, we have examined the vehicle extensively and have come to the conclusion that it definitely belongs in our tuning fail category because WE do not consider it beautiful. What is your opinion about this? Beautiful or not so beautiful? Please leave a comment here!
Of course, that wasn't the end of it!
