 | The Porsche Carrera GT is a mid-engined sports car that was manufactured by Porsche between 2004–2007 in Leipzig, Germany. Sports Car International named the Carrera GT number one on its list of Top Sports Cars of the 2000s, and number eight on Top Sports Cars of All Time list. |
 | The Carrera GT is powered by a 5.7 litre V10 engine producing 612hp. Porsche claimed the car would accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 3.5 seconds with a maximum speed of 330 km/h (205 mph). By the end of production on May 6, 2006, 1,270 GTs had been sold, 644 units sold in the US and 31 units sold in Canada. In the UK, 49 units were sold. |   |
 | Technology includes a pure carbon fiber monocoque and subframe, dry sump lubrication and inboard suspension. At speeds above seventy mph, the Carrera GT raises its rear wing into the airstream to reduce lift. Both its front and rear suspensions comprise pushrod actuated shock absorbers and dampers with anti-roll bars. Original base MSRP was around $442,900 in 2005. Today that would be a bargain. A low mileage concours example would fetch $ 1m+ |
