Porsche 911 GT3 Snowmobile by Magnat

The Porsche 911 GT3 was designed from the track, but Magnat has introduced a new package which gives the car a few creature comforts.

While the exterior styling tweaks are fairly limited, the company focused on creating a luxurious interior with leather, Alcantara and high-gloss painted trim. Last but not least, there's also a 2,100-watt sound system.

In the performance department, Magnat enlisted Wimmer RS to install a revised ECU and sport exhaust system. Thanks to these modifications, the engine produces 462 PS (340 kW / 456 hp) and 451 Nm (333 lb-ft) of torque which enables the 'Snowmobile' to hit a top speed of 317 km/h (197 mph).

Press Release:

SNOWMOBILE Porsche GT3 made by MAGNAT

That a Porsche GT3 - since 1999 built in first generation 911 Porsche sport version with water-cooled engine (now it is available in 4th generation!) - ever and always may be found on race tracks, was possibly planned by the manufacturer; but, otherwise, this does not apply at all to the successor of the legendary Carrera RS, which conception was also focused on essential things only. Presented in the following example of an unblemished driving machine shows perfectly that a "snow mobile" (so called because of its white car body painting) may also be provided with a first class car Hi-Fi equipment.

Thanks to the motor electronics adaptation, the modified exhaust system including sport catalysts and suction tubes optimization - all coming from Wimmer racing sport techniques in Solingen, Germany, and is called RS step 3 - the GT3 has been pepped up to a power performance of 462 hp, max torque of 451 Nm and Vmax of 317 km/h (197 m/h).

The wheel-tire-combination Ultraleggera HLT CT by OZ in 8.5 and 12x19 in. with Yokohama Advan Sport in 235/35-19 and 305/30-19 provides perfect contact with asphalt.

Individuality in the interior. Magnat has re-engineered the whole internal space of the car in finest craftsmanship and highest quality. Leather, Alcantara and high gloss paintwork let the GT3 shine in its unique design, the dynamic diamond patterns setting sportive and, in the same time, exclusive accents.

The 2,100 watts sound system has been adapted by Magnat especially for the GT3 interior. The original loud speaker brackets have been technically overhauled, offering sensibly better sound blasting qualities in comparison to the serial sound installation. There have been employed Magnat Selection series loud speakers, letting the inner space sound like a concert hall because of their anodized PP membranes, high performance voice coils and the 1" textile tweeters. Especially for the GT3, Magnat has developed a down-fire subwoofer casing with 10" woofer. Normally, this woofer principle is being used only for high quality home cinema installations, but it matches fine with the impressionating sound acoustics. The heart of the sound equipment is formed by the Magnat Black Core 5 channel amplifier providing its total power of 2,100 watts for sufficient power reserves and music pleasure while enjoying to drive the GT3.
According to an old German, it is a sound that makes music. Besides, it is justifiable to say: It is a fine Magnat sound that makes music...
