These days, if you happen to be fortunate enough to own a 964 or 993 generation of Porsche 911, and are sitting on a heap of cash, you have tons of customization and restoration companies that can make your car more unique and more powerful. Between Singer, Accumoto, RWB and more, the space seems quite packed. So why…
The Porsche 911 GT2 is the most extreme of all the Porsche 911s, and the 993 generation is the one that started the trend of roided-up, rear-engined, rear-wheel-drive Porsche insanity. Like any barely-road legal car it belongs on the track, but somehow it looks fantastic on the street.

Jochen Bader is a total Bad-ass. Long a proponent of juicing up classic cars with modern powerplants and seeing what'll happen, he (and his team at Bader Racing) took a GT3-spec Porsche 3.6-liter mill from a 993-era 911 and slipped it into a Karmann Ghia.
