Its insane how Tuthill Porsche went from lightweight and quirky E/G-models straight to prototype-class 911. An insane and bold leap indeed.

[@Russell_and_Rosko]

They've run and supported some of the most successful cars at the highest level Porsche rally racing not including a facility to teach hpde on multiple types of terrain. They mirror well known tracks from around the world on a frozen lake that are scaled accurately. If there was ever a company to take on such a challenge (gt1 repro/resto), the Tuthill gang certainly has the proper accolades. Hardly quirky imo. 11k from an aircooled motor? These guys are at the top.

Not that I don't think your statement has merit, but I love the look, the idea of using a Le Mans shape and the overall execution of this machine looks phenomenal. This excites me far more than another unobtanium car that is frankly ugly and undesirable. Look at the shape of this thing, the 80s/90s wheels and my god could you imagine seeing this come down a mountain pass. My god this thing is wallpaper material. And thank god it's done by Tuthill.

This absolutely looks like the 1996 Mobile 1 Porsche 911 GT1 Le Mans Race Car! OHHHH I WANT TO BUY THE 96, 97 AND 98 ROAD VERSIONS! I've been drooling over these cars since my teenagehood!

[@rahulsudhir666]

A yellow one was just on sale a couple of days ago at Monterey Car Week. It apparently sold about 2-3 mill USD below the expected price. This wasn't a Straßenversion though.

[@AgeofJP]

literally my #1 dream car since I played NFS Porsche when I was 6 years old...why did my child self have to fall in love with a car that's among the rarest of them all and practically unavailable even with unlimited money? The 98 model is by far my favorite, and because it didn't count as a new car they could "cheat" with the homologation...only ONE road version exists of that car, owned by Porsche themselves and located at the Porsche museum in Stuttgart. Maybe you could get one of the 4 race cars for an unreasonable price and homologize it independantly...the most literal DREAM car I can think of, where even in my dreams I have to be creative to get one because money alone won't suffice

[@GoodBoy-io6fd]

​@@AgeofJP We both lke the 911 GT1! Do you mean the game released in 2000 for the Sony Playstation Need For Speed: Porsche Unleashed that also featured the 959 and the legendary 1970 Porsche 917K? Your were just 6 at that time? I was maybe 14 at that time so I AM EIGHT YEARS YOUR SENIOR! 1998 Street Versioni of the 911 GT also called as 911 GT1-98 is my favourte 911 until this day like you! That one Street Version was the only requirement by the FIA for the 1998 Season of the Le Mans 24 Hours to allow them to Race so only 1 911 GT1-98 was made. Yes, it is now in the Porsche Museum in Germany in a plain white color scheme! I like to talk to Porsche once I become a MULT-MILLIONAIRE and ask them to make me a dozen each of the 1996, 1997 and 1998 street versions! Porsche should make a 2027 992 version of the 911 GT1 same shape, low, flat and long BUT WITHOUT THOSE SHARK FINS AT THE BACK!

[@AgeofJP]

@@GoodBoy-io6fd it was the PC version of that game which was pretty different, went a little more into a sim-racing direction with the physics and tuning system, had more content...and it looked alot better. It both got me into gaming and made me a lifelong Porsche fan...it even had a modding community that my father teached me to navigate even at that age. I was browsing modded cars, downloaded and installed them LITERALLY before I could properly read. So yeah the game had all the cars you mentioned and then some, I think there were more Porsche that were included than excluded. And a very vivid memory I have from my first session in the game is driving the 993 that was unlocked from the start and chasing that one car that was leading every race and looked totally alien compared to all the others...a dark blue 98' GT1 and it was like a phantom at first, because I hadn't unlocked it I could only see it for moments on the track at the start of exhibition races until it drove away. That's why I know I "love" this car...because my experience with it was literally the stuff of romance. And it completely became the ideal of a car to me...if anything could be changed it's somewhat the front but everything else is just perfect to me. The front looks deceivingly friendly but still very slick, the side profile is curvy like a woman's body (a hot woman), downright sexy, and the rear has to be the most evil looking car perspective on any car I've ever seen. Like, I don't know who decided "instead of the 911 bumper let's just have no bumper" but I thank him because that black void is such a menacing look. I always loved these shark fins btw...the 935 Moby Dick was another car I fell in love with for that very reason. In terms of car love I guess you could consider shark fins a fetish of mine. And yes for basically ever I am hoping that the next Porsche hypercar would be a new GT1...get the person who designed the relatively recent 935 tribute redesign to do it, that one was superb. It'd be a shame if they don't revive this beauty before EU regulations move in even harder on combustion engines

[@GoodBoy-io6fd]

@@AgeofJP WE HAVE OUR OWN LIKES! Everyone is complaining about that shark fins! Many takes it as an ugly addition n aero dynamics because in the past we can get so much down force and go faster in turns even without those shark fins! The Sharkfins made The Aventador SVJ, Veneno and Huracan STO a bit ugly. The LMP-1, LMP-2 and Hypercar Category with Sharkfins ARE ALL UGLY RACE CARS! The Hypercar Class which is suppose to be road cars super cars and hyper cars to be allowed to enter the highest level of racing but it was ANOTHER LE MANS PROTOTYPE ONE APPEARANCE THAT IS JUST A DETUNED RACE CAR! People are clamouring to bring back the design of the beautiful race cars of the past in the Group C and GT1 category! We can get better aero dynamics, handling and down force without the use of those shark fins! Look at the speeds of cars from 1960 to 2000's before the shark fins emerge in the 2010's, those race cars can reach 400 KPH and can also enter and exit turns fast! I want FIA and WEC to remove those shark fins once the fastest road going cars or street cars will be allowed in the Hypercar class and will never look like the LMP-1! Someone here in youtube had a rendering of a 992 911 GT1 but not too much of a look of a long, low, wide and flat GT-1 Race Car. I nevew knew that there was a modding community of the Need For Speed: Porsche Unleashed on PC in the years 2001 and so on! OHHH, I WANT TO TELL YOU THAT YOU ARE TALKING TO A LAMBORGHINI FAN BOY!

This stunner is just as mad as the GT1 - because Porsche did build those racecars for the street only because of the race regulations. It's just crazy if you think about it. But Tuthill took that shape and created a retrofuturistic amazement out of it. What a car! 😲

IDK anything about tax law in the UK but taking into account production cost, research and development (for this car and future projects) that doesn't leave a lot of meat on the bone with that 33 million.

[@Drgoldthumb]

I know right… And how much of the budget did they spend on just taking it to Monterey with that booth!?!? Must be more of a loss leader to grow the brand

[@JayDomnic]

Hopefully they can recuperate it from periodic mandatory maintenance and service upgrades. Then again I think £1.5m is base price probably not factoring in specific customer requests such as paint/leather/infotainment etc. The twin turbo upgrade will cost more.
