Porsche Carrera GTPhotography coming soon
The last truly analog hypercar. V10, manual gearbox, no electronic aids. The engine was originally designed for a cancelled Le Mans program.
History
The V10 engine was developed for Porsche's aborted LMP1 program. When the race program was shelved, the engine found a home in the most raw, unfiltered supercar Porsche ever made. Its ceramic composite clutch was notoriously tricky to operate.
