Unleash the Stealth Beast: The 790-HP TechArt GTstreet R Touring Revolution

When whispers of TechArt's latest project began circulating, aficionados of high-performance tuning braced themselves for another spectacle. Yet, what emerged was something unexpectedly sublime. Meet the TechArt GTstreet R Touring, the less extroverted sibling in the GTstreet R lineage, which first made waves back in 2021. Blending powerful performance with refined aerodynamic styling, this machine is TechArt's homage to enthusiasts who crave speed without shouting about it.

Understated, Yet Unmatched

The GTstreet R Touring iteration draws its DNA from the formidably fast Porsche 911 Turbo S, albeit with a twist in the narrative. TechArt, a German powerhouse in tuning, has opted for subtlety over extravagance in this model. Aero kits, once a bold statement, have been toned down to match Porsche’s own GT3 line’s naming convention, appealing to those who prefer their high-speed thrills with a side of elegance.

In line with its family lineage, the Touring model retains the carbon fiber body kits that are a hallmark of the original GTstreet R, with customization options aplenty for the discerning owner. However, it's the replacement of the signature multilayer wing with a sleek carbon fiber ducktail spoiler that speaks volumes of TechArt's design philosophy for the Touring - 60% lighter than its standard counterpart yet equally compelling in its function.

The Power Beneath the Surface

The heart of the GTstreet R Touring is where TechArt's wizardry comes to life. With two tuning options, this beast can be sedated to a mere 700 horsepower or unleashed to its full 790 horsepower potential, courtesy of the TA092/T2.1 upgrade. This setup propels the car from 0 to 62 mph in a breathtaking 2.5 seconds, with speeds topping out at 217 mph. Enhanced cooling ducts and an optimized transmission ensure that the car's power is as manageable as it is monstrous.

Beyond brute force, TechArt has meticulously engineered the GTstreet R Touring for the apex of handling. A widened track and lowered suspension come standard, with an optional adjustable coilover kit for those seeking to tailor the driving experience to their unique preferences. Complementing this are the lightweight 20-/21-inch Formula VI forged center-lock wheels, rounding off a package that's as visually arresting as it is technically proficient.

Exclusivity Defined

Amidst the power and the glory, the GTstreet R Touring speaks a language of exclusivity. Capped at just 25 examples, this model is set to be a rare gem within the GTstreet R family. Each example carries a starting price of 98,250 euros, a figure that excludes the cost of the Porsche 911 Turbo S it's based upon. It's not just about the performance or the aesthetics, but the privilege of owning a piece of automotive artistry.

For those poised to claim their GTstreet R Touring, deliveries are slated to begin in May 2024. It is not just a car but a statement - of style, sophistication, and unrivaled power. TechArt has once again redefined the boundaries of high-performance tuning, crafting an experience that's as compelling in its subtlety as it is in its speed.
