Rezvani's Latest Car Won't Stop Bullets, May Stop You In Your Tracks

Rezvani is also the company you go to if you need a backpack that flips around to the front to become a bulletproof vest or a bulletproof glass table.

But Rezvani Motors is opening up a new design house, Rezvani Retro, to focus on something completely different: modified Porsche 911s. The brand has just fully unveiled its custom 911 offering, the Rezvani Retro RR1.

Rezvani Retro is planning a limited run of 50 RR1 vehicles. The base vehicle is the current 992-generation Porsche 911 chassis. The brand describes the bodywork as an homage to the legendary Le Mans-winning Porsche 935 race car from the late 1970s. Vehicle No. 1, built for a local California client, bears the classic Martini livery. Rezvani Retro describes the RR1 as having "timeless looks" with "today's engineering."

The RR1's body is mostly carbon fiber; the Rezvani Retro retains the stock Porsche 911 doors on the driver's and passenger's sides. It comes in two versions, the RR1 600 and the RR1 750.

The RR1 600 uses a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter flat-six engine. Rezvani Retro bases it on the 992 Carrera. It's rear-wheel drive and can pair with either a six-speed manual transmission or a seven-speed PDK. As the name suggests, the RR1 packs 600 horsepower. The Rezvani RR1 600 can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.0 seconds.

Rezvani Retro bases the RR1 750 on the Porsche 911 Turbo S. It gets a turbocharged 3.8-liter flat-six pushing out, as the name suggests, 750 hp. The RR1 750 is all-wheel drive and is only available with the PDK transmission. Rezvani Retro says it can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in a blistering 2.0 seconds.

As you might expect, custom-building a Porsche 911 is not an inexpensive endeavor. A Rezvani Retro 911 build starts at $195,000 before options. And unlike many restomods, the base vehicle isn't a spec chassis or an aging donor car. It's the current Porsche 911 Carrera. If you haven't been monitoring Porsche 911 prices since the tariffs kicked in, brace yourself for some sticker shock. The current base Porsche 911 Carrera starts at $132,300. Add in Porsche's $2,350 delivery, processing, and handling fee, and you get an absolute minimum base price for an RR1 build of $329,650.

Mind you, that's before you get to the options menu. This time around, superspy gadgets like smokescreens and tear gas dispensers aren't available. But Rezvani does have all kinds of kit to turn the RR1 into a track monster.

If this all seems vaguely familiar, Rezvani actually announced the RR1 early this year. The initial debut included some basic specs and a handful of digital renderings, because an actual car hadn't been created yet. The one here, however, is the real deal. Whether features like bulletproof doors will be offered later remains to be seen.
