I know, but why release pics of it without finishing the paint job? I think it will look much better when all painted, just do not care for the side skirts.

True. I would like to see the finished product though and not some car in the middle of transformation.

obviously, you and the rest of us


the pic is from supercars.net I assume someone saw it while in the process outside a shop and snapped a pic and posted it.


Can't wait to see this car complete

They could still be moldiing the side skirts to the car so it looks flush with the body. You never know. I think when its painted it could look good. And the roofscoop looks functional to me because if you look at the second picture without the roof, you see that open duct coming up from the engine where the roofscoop would attach.

I think you may be right about molding them to be flush with the body.

a couple scetches:

they look similar in a lot of regards to the concept pics. front bumber is too busy on concept but much better from actual pics.

I like the look, but unless I had a stupid amount of money and could afford two , I wouldn't change an already beautiful car.

I would love to see a completed project, but I really do like where this is going. I love the roof scoop, as long as its functional. I think the car looks less classy, but far more aggresive, and I can't wait to see the finished product.

Well I like the rear wing very much...that should be very useful on track giving the GT some more control and stability at high speeds...things yet owned by the car and extremelised by Gemballa. WOW
Do someone has some serious info about the engine...a part for the 1000 hp ?

Thats quite a good points. Buy two, keep one stock, do this to the other for a track monster. I could not even begin to think of this car with 100 hp, ok you got me, yes i could, and it puts a smile on my face. I remember jeremy clarkson said it pulls harder than any other supercar over 100 mph. he said how it just pulled and pulled, and this is with 605 hp. imagine what this could with the extra 395 hp and the power of twin turbos! WOW!

I am a Techart guy 100%, so that might make me completely biased on this topic but I will go ahead and give my opinion. Gemballa is known for there over the top designs, taking Porsche's to the extreme and sometimes beyond that. In my opinion there over the top attitude cheapens the cars immensely, it takes away from the flowing lines and simple beauty of the car, simple as that. I see the Techart CGT and I look at this, TA gives an already jaw dropping supercar a few light accents and that is it, gemballa on the other hand has to add ducts and vents, roof scoops and on and on. I just dont think any of it is neccessary. So if you didn't guess by now haha I don't like it.
