HR Gemballa Avalanche Roadster Porsche GT



Already this year has seen Gemballa release the GTR 800 EVO-R Porsche 911 variant, two Cayman S variants and a Cayenne Turbo concept, among others. Now we can add yet another creation to the list of what has to be one of the busiest tuning shops on earth: the HR Gemballa Avalance Roadster Porsche GT.

Producing a respectable 600hp at the crank, with torque peaking at 840Nm, the Avalanche Roadster manages some quick sprints: 0-100km/h (0-62mph) takes just 3.5s. Top speed will carry the dial all the way to a reading of 320km/h (198mph). A special H&R stainless steel coil-over system has been custom built for the car, adding handling to match the potential for speed.

Inside, the standard treatment of Alcantara and nubuck leathers and carbon fiber give a suitably luxurious yet high-tech experience to those lucky enough to take a seat in the Avalanche. Outside, the Roadster sticks with the latest trend of throwing a rat-rod reminiscent coat of matte-black paint over a seriously fast car. The front fascia and side skirts add to the aggressive stealth-fighter look, and viewed from behind the dual-exhausts shout race car to the eyes and sing it to the ears.

The body work isn’t all for show, however: bigger intake scoops feed more air to the even-boostier turbos, the rear fascia features an integrated diffuser, and the exhaust has been moved to the center to avoid disturbing the airflow and thereby losing downforce.

The rear shot looks great, very interesting with the roof cut off. I like the CGT exhaust, but still a bit much, especially for a convertible.

Beautiful car ! I've always loved the Gemballa cars but I think the exhaust definitely fits the Mirage GT a lot better!

This Gemballa isn't all that bad. Much better looking than the coupe version for some reason. Must be the matte black paint.

the bumper looks a bit busy, but the overall aesthetics do flow.
