Gunther Werks will debut a 1,000-hp Slantnose-inspired Porsche build at The Quail during Monterey Car Week, limited to just 26 units.
Gunther Werks has carved out a reputation in the automotive world for reimagining air-cooled Porsche 911s into track-inspired, road-worthy carbon-fiber masterpieces. Their bespoke builds have become synonymous with rarity, performance, and extreme attention to detail amongst buyers and collectors—and this year, they’re arriving at Monterey Car Week with something that pushes their creativity even further. The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering is right around the corner, and that’s where Gunther Werks is set to unveil its first-ever Slantnose-inspired commission, an homage to one of Porsche’s most polarizing yet legendary designs.
The new project draws inspiration from the iconic Porsche 935 and the infamous Slantnose road cars of the ‘80s, but this one is unmistakably modern. The car’s fighter jet-like profile and carbon-fiber bodywork signal a big leap forward in both form and function. With only 26 units planned for production, it’s a statement piece for drivers in search of something truly unique. And with 1,000 horsepower on tap, it’s about capturing the brutal essence of what a reimagined Porsche can be when every limit is pushed.
Gunther Werks has taken everything they’ve learned since their very first build and funneled it into this four-wheel masterpiece. That includes signature craftsmanship, absurd performance upgrades, and obsessive attention to detail. While we’ve seen them redefine what an analog driver’s car can be, this new Slantnose-inspired project sounds like their most ambitious move yet, both visually and mechanically.
The official reveal is set for Friday, August 15, at 9:12 AM at Gunther Werks’ display at The Quail. Whether you’re a Porsche purist or just someone who appreciates wild engineering with an analog soul, this is a debut worth circling on the Monterey Car Week calendar.
