I’m not exactly a fan of tuning, but usually do an exception if we speak of the classic German or Japanese tuning with fine style and nothing bizarre.

The guys GTSpirit have a fantastic collection of thirty-tuned Porsche Panamera with more or less success, since it depends on the subjective view of the reader, or in this case the editor.

I’m not saying I would not stay with each of them, but I go very little fanfare and some may go a tad left over.

After the jump you thirty.

The future Porsche 911 could carry a seven-speed manual gearbox 0

Posted on June 19, 2011 by Justin Ridge

Porsche 911A Porsche 911 with seven-speed manual gearbox … rumor or reality?

The Internet rumors are quite tiring me, but when the rumor comes from the U.S. edition of Car and Driver the thing has a good chance of being true.

So far several automatic gearboxes have been offered for sale with seven, eight or even nine relations , but manual changes have stalled the six speeds. Apparently the manual gearbox Porsche seven-speed is directly derived from the dual-clutch automatic gearbox Porsche PDK is not a new development or anything like that.
Thus, Porsche offers its range of dual-clutch automatic transmission, automatic traditional torque converter and manual six or seven speeds. Almost anything…

Why seven speeds now? Apparently the only function of this “overdrive” modern is to save fuel and make the new Porsche more comfortable (less noise, less vibration, less fuel stops) on long journeys by road and highway.

The Porsche purists can now start pulling their hair go … times change and who is not board the train stays on the ground. Now Porsche addition to freak us convey feelings and also must travel at 110 km/h on the motorway at 2,000 RPM consuming 8 liters and in absolute silence. Who cares if it makes a few extra pounds to the car?

Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0 Limited EditionThis car is the peak of 997, and it takes many components. Most impressive, the engine is the same flat-six cylinder and four liters atmospheric, but this time developing a brutal power of 500 hp at 8,250 rpm and 460Nm at 5,750 rpm. Curra Porsche really much atmospheric engines, get stratospheric figures of 0-100 km / h in 3.9 seconds and a time of 7:27 Nurburgring (unofficial figure yet, I guess that will fall)

To achieve these figures, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS Limited Edition 4.0 is using a severe thinning process. The needle of the scale stops at the 1,360 kg although this has to make some concessions such as plastic windows and moon, carpeted floor mats and testimonial, etc. As usual, the carbon fiber also makes its appearance in Replacement of metal parts like the hood.

Backet racing , rainbow roll, tires Michelin slick … kind of doubt which is the natural habitat of this Porsche ?
