The New Porsche 911 Targa Gets A Makeover By Ares Design

Ares Design, an Italian coachbuilder, has recently finished working on a new project based on a Porsche 911 Targa. At a first glance, Porsche 911 Targa seems to be a regular model. Ares, on the other hand, has installed a custom carbon fiber body package that extends the car's width by 8 cm (3.1 inches) in the front and 4 cm (1.5 inches) in the back, giving it a more aggressive position on the roads.

The silvery vents now installed in the front tire arches are a clear indication of the fresh bodykit. Ares has also added silver trim to the front bumper and side skirts, which contrasts well with the silver wing mirrors, Targa's top, and wheels.

Luxury Italian coachbuilder also experimented on the interior, which has been reupholstered in a brown hue with Ares Design insignia stitched into the headrests. This luxurious new leather is carried over to the seats, dash, door panels, and steering wheel, which also bears the Ares Design logo.

Thanks to the addition of a sports exhaust system, the car's 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six engine now produces an additional 60 horsepower. Ares Design has decided to work on the Porsche 911 Targa for the second time, after the debut of its one-of-a-kind 911 GT3 Targa in 2018. It was a 911 Targa 4 GTS with 991.2 GT3 and GT3 RS bodywork, not a GT3.
