2011Renault 15 Turbo
For many years I have been wondering, why Renault didn’t build a proper turbo version of either the 15 or 17 coupé. The powertrain of the Renault 5 Turbo would have fit in the coupé bodies. Well, with some minor alteration to the original shell, of course. Because this is very easy to do in Adobe Photoshop, I just went ahead and did it: transplanting the powertrain and adapting the wide fenders. Voilá, c’est le résultat.

Very nice, love it. Wish I had seen this before rebuilding my R17 Turbo. Love the stlying. What are the wheels? Do they excist at all?

Hello Antony,
thank you for the kind words. The wheels are from a Renault R5 Turbo (widebody), but an inch or two bigger in diameter.
Best regards
Sebastian
