Since 2006, Gemballa has been building custom interpretations of the Porsche Carrera GT supercar, making it perhaps the foremost Carrera GT tuner in the world. For its latest iteration, Gemballa has decided to relax the power output and focus on a decisively seductive gold finish.

Some of Gemballa's GTs have put out as much as 750hp (560kW), but the Gold Edition is satisfied with 670hp (500kW) on tap. That's still about 50hp (40kW) more than the stock Carrera GT, however, and with 465lb-ft (630Nm) of torque it's sure to be a fun ride in any gear.

Gemballa's claimed performance stats back that up: 0-62mph (100km/h) takes 3.7 seconds, and it'll hit 124mph (200km/h) in just 9.7. Both of those figures shave two tenths of a second from the stock times, and the power boost takes top speed up to at least 208mph (335km/h).

Beyond the power mods, the Gold Edition adds lots of exposed carbon fiber accents, a gold-on-white color scheme and custom alloy wheels. A hydraulic height-adjustable coilover kit is also supplied to improve handling, as well as protect the car when any steep bumps need to be conquered.

Inside, there’s a mix of Alcantara and leather trim as well as carbon-fiber and aluminum accents

agreed. gold and white in moderation would have done this car wonders... the over accentuation of gold here makes it seem like bird man and lil wayne took it to "west coast customs" in colab with Xzibit and trashed it.

the interior isn't bad but seriously... gold package on a porsche could have been done a HELL of alot better

That looks HORRIBLE, looks like some ghetto ass hoodlum took a marker and painted stuff gold. WHAT THE FUCK? Looks just like half the Legends driving around except this is a CGT.

That is sexy as hell. The Carrera GT is the only Porsche I would even consider buying and I love the gold/white concept.

Gemballa's been overdoing it since the 80's. Another fine example here.
