Electric Porsche 911 that Irritates Purists, but They Have Nothing to Worry About

Is it better to leave classic 911s unchanged, preserving their original charm for future generations? Some undoubtedly think so. But for every purist holding on to this idea, there are increasingly more people interested in the restomod scene, those seeking the iconic look of these cars but wanting something more modern under the hood.
