The FIA GT1 class of race cars from Le Mans can be remembered by the large number of manufacturers that have entered iconic models such as the Toyota GT-One, the Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR/CLR, the Nissan R390 GT1, and the Porsche 911 GT1.

Obviously, homologated road-going examples of these vehicles exist but are incredibly rare, often in the hands of wealthy collectors who see them more as investments than actual machines.

But if you’re one of those wealthy enough to buy a GT1-inspired road car, look no further than the Tuthill GT One, a gorgeous restomod loosely based on the 911 GT1 racer.

Technically, this isn’t a restomod in any way as this is a commissioned build, but Tuthill has decided to give it a 22-unit production run, which will require at least 3,500 build-hours as each car will be personalized.

This entirely carbon-fiber body was designed by Florian Flatau, and meshes modern elements with classic race-car styling.

While it won’t use the same mid-mounted 3.2-liter, twin-turbo 9R1 flat-six as its race car inspiration, Tuthill says it offers two variants of a 4.0-liter flat-six.

The first is a high-revving, naturally aspirated motor inspired by its 911K. This should produce a little over 500hp. The second is a forced-induction variant that will push out in excess of 600hp.

There are two choices of transmissions: either a seven-speed dual-clutch or a seven-speed manual.

It seems to be full of motorsport-grade components, apart from the road-oriented Michelin Pilot Sport 4S rubber.

It has twin-wishbone front and rear suspension, carbon ceramic brakes, bespoke brake calipers, optimized underbody and surface aerodynamics, an FIA-based rollover protection system, full carbon-fiber doors, and an optional aero package for track use.

The total weight? A featherlight 1,200kg. And we’re sure that for the lucky 22 customers, their bank accounts will be feeling a little lighter after getting one as no price has been announced.
