Porsche Carrera GT

The Porsche Carrera GT is a high-performance limited production sports car produced by Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG. Styled by Harm Lagaay, the Carrera GT was initially unveiled as a concept car at the 2000 Paris Motor Show, using a 5.5L V10 originally built for Porsche's Formula One exploits. The concept was styled by Jason Hill and was so well-received that Porsche made the decision to produce the car. The production version of the car uses a 5.7L M80/01 V10 mated to a 6-speed manual; this is the only road-going Porsche model to use a V10 engine. Production began in 2004 and ended in 2006, with 1,270 cars produced. Today, the car is one of the most highly-collectible Porsche models.
