Porsche Ares 992 Targa

The Italian company Ares Design has done one of the best restoration and modification projects. This is another masterpiece of this company, Ares 992 Targa, based on the 2018 Porsche 991 GT3 Targa.

The car is elegant, with a lot of style and is characterized by everything that can be expected from Ares. Like the Ares 964 Turbo introduced earlier this year, the Ares 992 Targa is a unique project. The car is equipped with a new carbon aerodynamic body kit designed by Centro Style, which is tastefully integrated into the body.

The car is slightly wider, 3.14 inches (8 cm) at the front and 1.57 inches (4 cm) at the rear, compared to the 991 GT3 Targa. The interior is completely upholstered in the highest quality leather, as well as the basic model, and new decorations have been added to increase the overall impression.

The upgraded Ares 992 Targa is powered by the same Boxer 6 engine as the 991 GT3 Targa but with 60 hp more. The car also has a new exhaust system.

The owner of this unique model is not known, nor how much the upgrade will cost.
