Tuned Porsche 997 Turbo Cabriolet, The Germans Know Better
Not only that German cars rule but it looks like German tuning companies, do too. I’ve just laid my eyes on the newest Porsche 997 Turbo Cabrio, tuned by the guys at TechArt and all I can say is aside performances I’m in love with the looks. With 630 hp from a modified Boxer 3.6 liter engine this beauty only takes 3.5 seconds to reach 100km/h while the top speed is 345 km/h.

TechArt offers two kit versions, Aero Kit I and Aero Kit II, with both to include a front spoiler, a new bumper, a redesigned wing on the extendable rear spoiler, lateral air outlets and aerodynamic side sills. Other improvements include a 25mm lowered suspension for better handling and an adjusted PSAM shock absorption system that includes the VarioPlus threaded chassis. Read Article

Sexy car and it's a chick magnet, but I would die driving this car with that much power.

Technicly RUF isn't a tuner, but a manufacturer.

I live in Aus and we get none of the techart/gemballa/ruf/brabus/carlsson/etc treatment. You'll see the odd set of rims made by the tuners, but no one with proper work done to their cars.

They need to open some workshops in Australia!!
