Design and Features
The TechArt Coupe/Cabriolet features a bodykit with high-downforce front and rear spoilers, a rear diffuser, side skirts, and mirror and headlight housings. The car is fitted with TechArt Formula alloy wheels ranging from 18 to 20 inches, and ContiSportContact 2 VMax tires. A full range of interior customizations are available and tailored to customer taste. To aid the car's performance, a range of suspension kits, depending on the wheel and tire combinations, can be installed. The basic kit lowers the car by 25 millimetres (1.0 in), while the most advanced kit, the TechArt Vario sport suspension, uses Bilstein adjustable rebound shock absorbers and variable ride height control which can lower the car up to 35 millimetres (1.4 in). The engine upgrades utilize custom exhaust, reprogrammed ECU chips, and performance air cleaners to add 15 horsepower (11 kW) to either the basic 3.6L Carrera engine or the larger 3.8L Carrera S engine, resulting in final outputs of 340 horsepower (254 kW) and 370 horsepower (276 kW), respectively.
