Road & Track casts the GXR-Evo as Gunther Werks’ most extreme 993 yet — a limited-production, track-focused restomod revealed against Monterey Car Week and built to bring circuit thinking onto public tarmac.
Lucas Bell notes another 210 pounds stripped from the Coupe, a 2,386-pound dry weight, and a revised carbon body with new splitters, dive planes, and a high-downforce wing large enough to replace the rear window with a shark-fin.
Power is a Rothsport 4.0-liter flat-six with slide-valve throttles and quarter-window intakes, 455 horsepower, a modified G50 six-speed, and a straight-pipe exhaust. Race hardware follows: double-wishbone front suspension, three-way remote-reservoir dampers, Brembo Pista brakes, air jacks, Motec displays, a Racetech carbon-Kevlar seat, six-point harnesses, and an eight-point cage.
Only 15 will be built. Each owner also receives a bespoke racing simulator. Read the full story on Road & Track.
