Kalmar Porsche 7-97 (911): Classic look with modern technology!

Kalmar Automotive recently presented his 7-97 Classic, which is based on the Porsche 911 of the 993 generation.

The restomod combines in a fascinating way the look of a classic sports car with the latest materials, innovative technology and a powerful engine.

Carbon meets retro charm

At first glance, the 7-97 Classic impresses with its completely new body made of lightweight carbon. Painting in Sunoco Blue underlines the mix of retro charm and modern touch. Subtle details such as modern headlights, black Fuchs rims with blue accents, a new engine cover and black exterior mirrors complete the overall picture.

Unique features set it apart

The inner values ​​of the 7-97 Classic are what make it so special. Kalmar uses its own, internally ventilated ceramic discs, which are hard to find in many other restomods.

Furthermore, the conversion features an adaptive Suspension with front axle lift system, various driving modes, traction control and a smooth underbody for optimized aerodynamics.

Powerful engine and luxurious interior

Under the hood is a 4,0-litre six-cylinder boxer engine with a whopping 411 hp and 420 Nm of torque, which turns up to 7.500 rpm. Although a current GT3 With 100 more horsepower, it offers even more power, but the 7-97 Classic scores with a weight of just 1.200 kg. Thanks to the weight savings, it promises a breathtaking driving experience despite fewer horsepower.

And the interior leaves nothing to be desired. Recaro Sportster CS seats in black leather with blue contrast stitching ensure optimal support. Black leather with blue stitching runs across the door panels, the steering wheel and the dashboard. The interior is rounded off by accents made of Alcantara in blue on other parts of the dashboard, pillars and headliner.
