Have you ever wondered what the Porsche Carrera GT would have looked like had its maker taken it endurance racing? With its ground-scraping splitters, swollen air intakes and enormous active rear wing, Gemballa’s audacious take on the vivacious V10 supercar, christened the Mirage GT, paints the perfect picture. We appreciate that taking one of the most prized supercars in the world and, for want of a better word, defacing it will horrify many of you. But in an automotive world where standing out from the rest is increasingly important, there is a place for these ultra-rare, opinion-polarising creations now so more than ever – after all, there were more than 1,270 Carrera GTs built, while just 25 of them received the Mirage GT makeover.
