Porsche Carrera GT

People say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. A video of the remarkable Turquoise Green Metallic Porsche Carrera GT has appeared on TheTFJJ YouTube channel.

The Porsche Carrera GT is powered by a 5.7-liter V10 engine with 603 hp (450 kW) and 435 lb-ft (590 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission. It reaches 60 mph in 3.5 seconds with a top speed of more than 205 mph (330 kph).

It is equipped with large engine cooling vents located in the middle of the rear axle, electronically operated rear wing and 19 and 20 inch 5-spoke alloy wheels with 380 mm SGL Carbon brake discs.

The car was driven on wet British country roads, and some parts of the interior can be seen in the video, such as a dashboard trimmed in soft leather. Due to the weather, the removable roof was in place.
The car is made of lightweight carbon materials, and the design is based on Le Mans race cars, so the ignition is on the left.

At the Nürburgring Nordschleife the Porsche Carrera GT set a lap time of 7 minutes and 28 seconds.
