The 2012 Porsche 991 GT3 could look good with some genuine wide-body wheel arches...

The Porsche 918 Spyder is powered by a high-speed V8 developing more than 500bhp and running at maximum speed engine of 9,200rpm as well as electric motors on the front and rear axle with overall mechanical output of 218bhp.

The V8 combustion engine is a further development of the highly successful 3.4-litre power unit already featured in the RS Spyder racing car and positioned mid-ship in front of the rear axle, giving the car the right set-up for supreme performance on the race track through its excellent balance.

Power is transmitted to the wheels by a 7-speed PDK gearbox also feeding the power of the electric drive system to the rear axle. The front-wheel electric drive powers the wheels through a firm transmission ratio.

The 90-degree V8 racing engine with a displacement of 3.4 litres generated 478bhp with the air-restrictor prescribed for 2008. The version used in the ALMS since mid-2008, which comes with direct fuel injection (DFI), generates as much as 503bhp. Distinguishing features of the long-distance engine are its low weight and low centre of gravity.

Two interlocking transmission shafts, each linked to a separate clutch, allow for power-shifting without torque interruption. The central module in this transmission is the dual clutch from ZF Sachs. A dual clutch system can be used in all passenger cars, especially high performance vehicles.

"...so Mr Andreas Preuninger, how about a 2012 Porsche 991 GT3 with a 3.4-litre V8 developing 500bhp, with a 9,200rpm red-line and a 7-speed PDK gearbox!"
