This links doesn't work : (Vorteks site is down) backup of Fan mod patch 1.06 for - Porsche Unleashed
Talk:Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed
Someone fixed the link
Seems someone removed those links again. Now it just points to patreon paywall.
Here's the link to nfs5_pu_patch_1.06.7z from original blog entry:

But as it was stated here:
https://web.archive.org/web/20220128183909/https://verokster.blogspot.com/2019/11/need-for-speed-porsche-unleashed-patch.html
It is not completely finished, but playable, so maybe the Patreon version is newer and better.
The info added to our wiki page.
Hey, I don't know if this is exactly the place to ask for but if someone remembers, there was a special version of NFS Porsche called Top Speed that was just a stripped down online version of it, it included an officially made Porsche Cayenne but seems nobody ported it?, it's a very hard thing to search for as "need for speed" "top speed" just gives thousands of unrelated results...
I know there is a custom Cayenne out there but its pretty messy and its stats are all over the place, I'd like to have the real deal...
Porsche Cayenne was produced since 2002. It's two years after the game launch. Why should anybody release a special edition for two years old game? Maybe it was an unofficial standalone game uploaded with this specific mod?
It was released to promote the Imax movie Top Speed, search for: "Top Speed Official Movie Trailer Imax film with Porsche" on YouTube, this site won't let me post the link...
You can also find the game in the NFS wiki, there is a screenshot of the car in question...
I know it's very likely that no one has ported it but I don't lose anything by asking...
I tried the solution myself and it only left me with a Watermark I couldn't get rid of (even after clicking the box to remove it) and still received stuttering FPS like every other solution.

Did you try to set DirectX 12 on a supported GPU while using the newest dgVoodoo?
NFS5.CAR has the following bugs - The 550 A Spyder doesn't have any tires to install. The 1960 356B cars don't allow the standard bumper. The 911 (993) cars don't allow rim style 4. The 1997 911 doesn't allow professional racing brakes. The 1997 911 allows class 1 and 2 carbon fiber quarter panels. NFS5.CAR can be fixed, such as including 550 normal tires, 550 rain tires or 550 slicks, allowing standard bumpers on the 356B, ... , only allow class 2 carbon fiber quarter panels on the 1997 911.
These fixes to NFS5.CAR were included in one of the ftp.ea.com (now shutdown) download patches, made for players having issues with the EA updater, but only a small fraction of players did the update this way, and did or redid career mode after installing the ftp download patch in order to get these fixes. Many in the online community were concerned about the existing records for the 550A Spyder made without tires (it defaulted to normal tires instead of slicks) so didn't want the fix, falsely or unknowingly claiming that it was never fixed by EA (since the fix was only in that ftp.ea.com download patch). EA severs were shutdown long ago, and the most recent site, iplounge has virtually no activity.
The web sites hosting this fix come and go, so do a web search to find a fix. A player would also need to redo career mode or download a save made with the fixes.
Do you still have some links which contained mentioned patch? Maybe archive.org has them archived. Do you have full file name of this patch? Maybe it can be googled. Was it V3.5.20040310? It is attached with NFS5 Essentials https://www.nfscars.net/need-for-speed-porsche-unleashed/3/files/view/11514/
