OK..."motor" aside, I'd like to see more pics of that thing. The rear quarters look huge, euro rear bumper of some kind...different wheels?

I'l love to see more angles of the body.

Oh yea, and specs of the torque would be good too

Default Huh?

What's the point of a 993 that's not air cooled?

What a waste..... They should have killed a 996 instead!

Couldn't agree more!

Half the pleasure of driving it is the sounds...guess you have to settle for a CD soundtrack in that thing.

Looks like A$$ too with the different rims front to back.

soon we will see more of this types of these mods used in classic cars.

the idea is that if everybody goes electric, at least it can be kept interesting by using classic bodies.

In a Porsche however...... im not so sure.
Maybe if there was no more gasoline in the world then yeah, i would do this mod to my 993.

My guess they choose a 993 is because they wanted the best looking Porsche.

If every car in the world had to be electric i would do this to a classic 993 to separate myself from all the hondas and hyundais etc...

Why do they have different rims front and back? I'll bet that thing is fast 0-60.

I'll run this past my cousin (910 builder, and ex-Tesla) to see what the real world performance is.
