Fifteen Eleven Design has unleashed a radical reimagining of the basic Porsche 914, reworking the modest mid-engine Targa right into a motorsport-grade restomod with severe efficiency credentials. Now obtainable to check drive at HK Motorcars within the US and Fifteen Eleven’s EU web site, this reborn 914 pairs old-school silhouette with cutting-edge engineering.
Below the hand-laid carbon fiber bodywork sits a flat-six from the 987 platform, tuned to supply as much as 400 hp relying on configuration. Patrons can select between a 3.8L or race-prepped 4L possibility that includes solid pistons, metal internals and Life Racing electronics. Energy is delivered by way of a six-speed guide gearbox, whereas suspension is dealt with by three-way adjustable Reiger coilovers, tech usually reserved for WRC vehicles. The setup features a totally re-engineered chassis with T45 tubular reinforcements and Brembo brakes for track-ready stopping energy.
The design nods to Porsche’s motorsport historical past with “Moby Dick”-style lights, an aggressive ducktail spoiler and customized 18-inch Fikse Fuchs wheels. Inside, drivers will discover a bespoke inside trimmed in leather-based and Alcantara, race bucket seats and a revised bulkhead for added legroom. Manufacturing is anticipated to be restricted to 50 models, excluding potential one-off collaborations.
