In 2013, a passionate Swiss Porsche collector, former racing driver, commissioned the Zagato Atelier to build a carbon fibre body for his Carrera GT, following the classic approach, very trendy between the 40s and the 60s, when special bodyworks were prepared with the purpose of racing or participating in elegance contests. Being the GTZ a tribute to the German manufacturer and since its technical specifications hadn't been altered, the work of the designer intended to further improve the airflow around the body, remoulding the rear with the typical shape of a Zagato coupé, as it was done in the 50s with the successful models based on the 356 Carrera.
