There’s something extremely gratifying about seeing the parts of this Carrera GT laid out on the floor awaiting its service. It’s like watching a supermodel undress and waiting to get to the beauty that lies beneath the outer layer. The care and extreme ability that goes into actually performing a service like this is intense and only the most skilled technicians will ever be able to get their mitts on it. The service is part of a four-year service that is required by Porsche and it seems to include everything: from cleaning all the oil hoses out with compressed air to checking the horn (complete list below). Check out the extreme level of detail Porsche went through to make sure every part looks as good beneath the skin as it does from the outside. A few of the pics are below but make sure to check out Team Speed for the rest of the visually intense post.
