01 / THE STORY

History & context

The Porsche 992 Targa Ares is a remarkable one-off creation crafted by ARES Moden, exemplifying the perfect blend of Italian artistry and German engineering. Designed to be truly unique, this masterpiece embodies the philosophy of ARES, where bespoke automotive excellence takes center stage. The car’s transformation begins with a breathtaking carbon fibre aero kit, meticulously crafted by the Modenese Centro Stile. This custom kit significantly enhances the car’s aesthetic appeal while also improving its aerodynamic efficiency. The front of the Targa is widened by an impressive 8 cm, while the rear sees a 4 cm increase, giving the car a more aggressive and muscular stance. These modifications not only enhance the visual presence but also contribute to improved stability and handling, particularly at high speeds. ARES Modena has spared no effort in refining the interior as well. The cabin has been completely reimagined, exuding luxury and elegance. High-quality leather upholstery envelops the seats and interior panels, offering both comfort and style. New decorative elements have been meticulously integrated, reflecting ARES’ dedication to craftsmanship and attention to detail. The result is an interior that feels both modern and timeless, a perfect complement to the car’s striking exterior. However, the Porsche 992 Targa Ares is not just about aesthetics. Under the hood, the unmistakable Boxer 6 engine has received a meticulous performance upgrade. ARES engineers have fine-tuned the engine, extracting an additional 60 horsepower compared to the stock model. This significant power boost is complemented by a newly fitted sports exhaust system, which not only enhances performance but also delivers a richer, more aggressive sound profile, making the driving experience even more exhilarating. For ARES Modena, creating one-off masterpieces is a passion, a tradition that caters to true automotive connoisseurs. The Porsche 992 Targa Ares proudly joins this elite collection, a testament to the brand’s dedication to pushing the boundaries of customization and performance. As a singular expression of style and power, it stands as a tribute to the spirit of innovation and individuality.
