Custom aftermarket Porsches are hardly a rarity these days. With companies like Singer, Canepa, Bisimoto, Tuthill, Rauh-Welt Begriff, and many others offering their own unique interpretations of the iconic 911, the market is full of standouts. But if you're familiar with the world of modified Porsches, there's one name that can't be overlooked:
Gunther Werks
.
Since arriving on the scene in 2017, Gunther Werks has quickly established itself as a top-tier
Porsche
tuner. Early builds like the 400R and Project Tornado gained major attention in the collector car world for their distinctive design, powerful performance, and meticulous craftsmanship.
Eight years on, Gunther Werks remains one of the most respected names in the American Porsche aftermarket scene. With new projects launching regularly and a continually growing list of customization options, buyers have no shortage of vehicles to choose from.
But unless you're ready to drop seven figures on a rare Gunther Werks build, it's hard to grasp what the ownership experience is really like. So, we decided to find out for ourselves.
West Coast Editor Chris Rosales recently visited Gunther Werks' headquarters in Huntington Beach, California. The team graciously offered a full tour of their expansive 24,000-square-foot facility—everything from the customer lounge to the assembly line itself.
Words barely do it justice. But if you have the means to commission a custom Porsche from Gunther Werks—do it.
