When too fast still isn’t fast enough, who you gonna call? We suggest the torrid tuners at Germany’s TechArt, whose stand at the 2007 Geneva motor show includes its brand-new TechArt GTstreet. Based on the already screaming-fast 997-series 911 Turbo, this sequel to the 2001 TechArt GTstreet (which was based on the similarly screaming-fast 996 911 Turbo) offers similar modifications to amp up the scream factor even higher than can be mustered by the base Turbo’s meager 480-hp flat-six. Specifically, the twin-turbo 3.6-liter engine has been injected with an additional 150 horsepower (!) for a total of 630 at 6800 rpm, and torque 
rises in similar measure to 605 pound-feet at 4500 rpm, from the standard Turbo’s 505 (with overboost).As such, TechArt claims the GTstreet should hit 62 mph in a scant 3.2 seconds (a modest claim, considering we’ve done 60 mph in 3.4 seconds in a standard 911 Turbo) and 124 mph in just 10.9 seconds on its way to a top speed of 214 mph. And it sure looks fast, too, with sexy black wheels, a lowered suspension, and a more aggressive body with contours honed in a wind tunnel, offering what TechArt calls “an optimal
symbiosis of aerodynamic downforce, minimized drag, and striking design.” And lots of orange paint.
