9ff reveal surprise 900 hp version of the Porsche Carerra GT

Yes, the 900 stands for 900 horsepower. That's simple enough to decipher. But the extra 'T'? Maybe it's for tornado, considering the kind of turbocharging that is taking place here.

The details don't say whether its the same V670 turbochargers, those "variable turbine geometry" thingies, from the 9ff GT2 670 but something scary is taking place in that engine bay. The twin turbos added to the Carerra GT give the 9ff GTT 900 about 300 more hp than the production version.

Coming in what appears to be a less-than-flaming red, touched by matte black accents, 9ff kept this car a secret until it was revealed at the Essen Motor Show. The car also comes with a reworked bodykit featuring cut-out front wheel wells and a fixed rear wing.

No details on pricing or whether this car will actually ever be for sale. Hard to imagine there not being any regulatory hurdles involved for making it street-legal. It may just be for show.

Forget the wheels, they just ruined the only decent looking Porsche!

I say it still looks good, because the charm of the Carrera GT is not the design, but the performance! 900bhp FTW! :)

I still think that the Carrera GT is the most beautiful of the 3 supercars that came out in the that boom (SLR,Enzo,MC12).

No the SLR is the best looking super car on the road.

Ok what about the performance numbers? only 900 hp ..? 0-60 / top speed / torque ... etc

note to self, flat black on lipstick red doesn't work... no matter how cool the car.

Gotta love the color. Pinkysh.

It's great! But the interior color doesn't go with the outside. Dying for the performance specs! Ans I hope th eturbo's don't muffle the greatest engine sound around!
