Gemballa GTR Biturbo

The poise and balance of a Boxster coupled with an engine more powerful than God - top stuff

---

We like Gemballa. They take run of the mill Porsches and modify them pretty extremely yet manage to retain pretty good taste. Given the number of items on each car that they replace or modify, it's a wonder that the cars don't end up looking like the worst examples of Southend boltonarama.

Their latest creation is the GTR Biturbo roadster - a monstrously powerful Boxster conversion. If you love the handling and balance of the Boxster, but want some offensive levels of power then get talking to the Gemballa boys.

They offer many options for creating your own version of the beast, but the basic ingredients are new skirts, bumpers, spoilers, bonnet and paintwork. Thrown in a dash of uprated suspension, a pinch of 6 cylinder braking and you've got yourself a unique car.

That's before you lift the engine cover to discover the Gemballa 3.6 biturbo unit. A subtle 500bhp nestles there ready to do as you command. Power is transmitted through a manual box or a reinforced Tiptronic 'box.

Well its not for me this car. If I had one it would just have the engine and stuff all the styling mods.

But 500bhp? Sounds damn good. The sort of of car that when being accused of hairdresseriness rips off your head and stuffs it up your

would a car this powerfull still be usable as my daily driver.
I certainly like the looks.
How about the chassis probably needs massive reinforcing.

Still would love to have it, mind you in silver the car looks much better.
