Team OD Updated: May 09, 2013, 04:15 PM IST

Porsche's 550 model was a gorgeous piece of machinery. That its no longer in production is a dampener. However, Vintech has got a solution for this. The French company is creating a tribute to the legendary P550 complete with classic lines, a modern chassis and full carbon fibre body. Featuring a 3.0-litre 4-cylinder boxer engine which produces between 264 â€" 274PS of power, the 550kg car looks set to rack up some serious lap times.

Vintech haven't announced any prices or how many units will be built, however, we expect the pricing to be more than that of any other Porsche cars on sale now.The P550 Tribute will be unveiled on August 17 at Pebble Beach Concours d'Delegance.
