964-based lightweight has a 500 hp, 4.0-liter air-cooled flat-six and a sub-1,000 kg curb weight
Theon Design has revealed its most hardcore 911 restomod yet, the Theon R. The 964-based coupe is made with F1-grade carbon fiber body panels and weighs less than 1,000 kg, or 2,200 lbs. Power comes from a 4.0-liter, naturally-aspirated air-cooled flat-six generating over 500 hp. The 2025 GT3 RS is the lightest Porsche 911 you can currently buy. But Theon Design ’s new restomod creation, the Theon R, makes the RS look like a candidate for a six-week stay in a summer fat camp.
That compares with 3,268 lbs for a modern GT3 RS, and 2,210 lbs for the OG Miata, in case you were wondering. A modern RS make more power, of course, but not as much more as you’d think. Its 4.0-liter water-cooled flat-six generates 518 hp , but the Theon’s same-sized air-cooled motor pumps out 500 hp , meaning the Theon easily wins the power-to-weight shootout.
