Swiss innovative car tuning company Rinspeed tuned another Porsche. This time they gave the Porsche 997 Turbo a new look and new power.
The Rinspeed Porsche 997 Turbo Le Mans 600 sports 600hp. The engine tuning includes special VTG turbo chargers, a new Carbon air intake ram-air system with sport air filters, improved intercoolers as well as a high performance exhaust system with metal catalytic converters.
These modifications make the Rinspeed "Le Mans" one of the fastest street legal sports cars. The sprint from 0-100 km/h is achieved in just 3.3s, the 200 km/h mark is reached in 10.9s and the top speed is clocked at 343 km/h.
Rinspeed tuned a 997 Turbo back in 2005 called Indy.
