Although sports car accidents are common, porsche Carrera GT crashes are the first. There was once a Carrera GT that spontaneously combusted at the Shanghai International Circuit, and a GEMBALLA Mirage GT hit the light pole during the test drive, so this ordinary version of the Carrera GT was the first collision in the mainland. The accident occurred in Shanghai, which is also the carrera GT with the highest appearance rate in China, with a global limit of 1270 vehicles and a single digit number in the mainland.
The Carrera GT is not easy to open, equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission, the clutch is racing-grade, not to mention the smooth it, can ensure that it does not turn off, and it is very good to hang into every correct gear. The Carrera GT is a supercar close to a car, there is no electronic stability control, without stability control, there is no computer program to make up for the driver's mistakes, such as you drive it to turn deep on the accelerator, the whole car will rotate, then it is out of control.
In fact, before the Porsche Carrera GT was launched, Porsche test drivers said that this was the first car in my life that scared me when driving. The powerful power can not be driven by the average driver, indeed, its core is the 5.7-liter V10 engine, which can burst 605 horsepower and 593 Nm of torque, to know that this is a car released in 2003, this power level is really scary.
The Carrera GT is the only manual transmission in the "Three God Cars" in 2003, and it is still rear-wheel drive, which is very challenging to drive, which also makes the Carrera GT car accidents frequent. To play with its full performance, it's best to hit the track, but you'll have to be skilled. It is also difficult to control, many buyers have owned it for a period of time and then sold it, and they are even more reluctant to buy it. The car was a U.S. version that drove only 2,000 miles, or 3,200 kilometers, and 670 were bought in North America and 50 in the United Kingdom.
The Carrera GT is also unique in that it was the first Porsche to adopt an automatically adjustable rear wing, the whole vehicle used a carbon fiber frame, and even the transmission clutch was carbon ceramic, weighing only 1.38 tons. The lap time at the Nürburgring North Loop that year was 7 minutes and 28 seconds.
The unique feature is also the wheel hub, the wheel hub uses the central locking hub commonly used in racing, and the color of the left and right wheel bolts is not the same, one side is red and the other is blue, but also because the rotation direction of the bolt is different, which is convenient for differentiation.
Although the Carrera GT is a road car, the interior also has the style of a luxury car, with air conditioning, a stereo, a leather-wrapped interior, and wood from a luxury car. The wood part is on the gear lever, and the material is birch, just to reduce weight and is not easy to conduct heat.
There is currently no Carrera GT for sale in the domestic secondary market, and the price of new cars started from 6.45 million that year, and now used cars are around 8 million. The price is around 8 million. In November 2015, the Mirage GT, which hit the light pole, spent a year overseas repairing before returning home, and the Carrera GT, which crashed more badly, may take longer.
