Fifteen Eleven Design's Porsche 914 packs close to 400 hp.
, this modified Porsche imbues the automaker's entry-level sports car of the 1970s with the powertrain from a more modern mid-engined Porsche: the 3.8-liter flat-6 from a 987-generation Cayman S., but the base flat-4 engine proved more popular. The Cayman engine makes more power than both, with an estimated output of 380-400 hp. That power is sent to the rear wheels through a 6-speed manual transmission.
The suspension is Cayman-derived as well. Fifteen Eleven redesigned all of the suspension pickup points for this, and also added some structural reinforcement.
The interior features Recaro bucket seats and leather trim. Fifteen Eleven also redesigned the rear bulkhead between the cabin and engine compartment to add more legroom. The company says it will make cars with both lefthand and righthand drive. Order books are now open, with a starting price of 350,000 British pounds . Fifteen Eleven hasn't discussed U.S. availability, however.
