Key Takeaways

Rezvani just dropped the automotive equivalent of a time machine with a turbocharger.

The RR1 doesn’t just nod at the legendary Porsche 935 – it grabs that iconic silhouette and drags it screaming into 2023.

Porsche DNA, Rezvani Attitude

Underneath that carbon fiber bodywork beats the heart of a modern Porsche 911 (992).

Your donor options read like a performance menu that ranges from “very fast” to “possibly illegal.”

Choose your weapon:

  • 3.0L turbocharged flat-six delivering 550-600 hp through either a 7-speed manual or PDK to the rear wheels
  • 4.0L naturally aspirated flat-six pushing 565 hp with a 9,200 rpm redline and your choice of 6-speed manual or PDK
  • 3.8L twin-turbo flat-six monster generating 750 hp (track) or 715 hp (street) with PDK and all-wheel drive

The top-spec variant hits 0-60 mph in 2.0 seconds. Physics apparently received a memo to make an exception.

Carbon Fiber Everything

Every body panel is carbon fiber, sculpted to evoke the 935’s racing heritage while housing modern mechanicals.

The staggered wheel setup (20×10 front, 21×13 rear) plants this beast firmly on the tarmac.

Optional carbon fiber turbofan wheel covers complete the period-correct aesthetic without the period-correct understeer.

Suspension gets the full treatment too – adjustable setups for street or track use, with optional Ohlins coil-overs for those who know the difference between damping and dampening.

Exclusivity Has Its Price

Production caps at 50 units. Exclusivity guaranteed.

Entry price starts at $149,000 – and that’s before you supply the donor Porsche.

Do the math: base 911 Turbo S ($216,100) plus conversion ($149,000) equals the price of a modest home in most states.

But you can’t drive a house at 200 mph with a Martini livery.

Restomod Done Right

What makes the RR1 compelling isn’t just its numbers – it’s the execution.

The manual transmission option proves Rezvani understands its audience. Drivers who choose this car want engagement, not just bragging rights.

Rezvani’s approach strips away the clinical precision of modern supercars and replaces it with something more visceral.

It’s what happens when engineers are allowed to build cars for drivers instead of focus groups.

Limited production, unlimited character, and a design that turns more heads than a tennis match. The RR1 delivers exactly what the supercar world needs – personality with the performance to back it up.
