    Re: Porsche Carrera GTZ

    There is no GTZ...I suppose this is just some sort of a joke or the car is tuned.

    If it is a joke, the owner really has no humor and if this car is tuned, the owner is crazy.

    I know that there is no such a thing as GTZ. It's just a name that owner choosed for this kind of tuning

    One Carrera GT got a design treatment by ZAGATO for a swiss collector. Look at the side you see the Z, which stands for ZAGATO.

    Ok, in looking closely at the body panels, I think it is an actual CGT that was given a new front and rear bumper and engine lid cover.

    Look at the exhaust pipes. Some tuning involved.

    Re: Porsche Carrera GTZ

    I find this to be a very interesting variation of the original theme, especially the roof element behind the b-pillar. Obviously Zagato built it for a Swiss collector, only altering the outer body panels (roof, fenders) but retaining the mechanical components in regular state.

    Yeah it's obviously a Zagato intervention. just another example of people that have more money than taste.

    Re: Porsche Carrera GTZ

    I know the car and I know the guy. He is a petrolhead. I'm upgrading a modified Mk6 Bentley for him. The car has a roadster body and a 8 cylinder Rolls Royce under the hood ! He want a better handling to be able to use the 300 hp of the engine safely...

    He built convertibles in the eighties for Renault, British Leyland and Ferrari.

    He is also a formal race driver...
