Model description: It is possibly the dream of many car enthusiasts - the blend of the classic German sports car Porsche 911 Turbo and the French Citroen DS.

So far such a car existed only in the heads of these car enthusiasts, but thanks to the US team of “Brandpowder” this dream was materialized, even if only as a computer animation. Without loosing the own character of each car, the creative heads merged both striking silhouettes perfectly together. Result was a car with the front of the German sports car and the rear of the French icon painted in an orange shade; typical for Porsche.

At the sight of this combination the obvious question arises; since the 911 is powered by a rear-mounted, air-cooled engine and the Citroen houses its engine in the conventional forward location; where would the engine be positioned in a merger of the two? Hereto Brandpowder declared that the engine would be positioned in the rear of the car. But instead of using an air-cooled one, as it was with the Porsche, they would use a water-cooled drive.

The merger of a Porsche 911 Turbo and a Citroen DS caused such a sensation and was such perfectly with background information staged, that a range of leading car journals took up the story in 2013. But it is not known how many of them felt for the computer-animated pictures and really thought that such a car was or will be made.
