Porsche 911 Turbo S to debut at Geneva

Porsche 911 Turbo S to debut at Geneva

If you want something more than a 911 Turbo, insist on turbocharged power and don’t want to go the full way to get the expensive and hardcore GT2, here’s somewhat of a middle ground for you – the Porsche 911 Turbo S.

Power for the 911 Turbo S is up by 30 horses compared to the Turbo, so it now puts out 530 horses and a peak torque of 700Nm. There’s only one transmission available – the 7-speed Porsche PDK twin clutch transmission, which puts down power to all four wheels via the Porsche Traction Management all-wheel drive system.

The Turbo S comes standard with fade-resistant Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB), Dynamic Bending Lights, 19-inch wheels in RS Spyder design with central locking, a three-spoke sports steering wheel with gearshift paddles, adaptive sports seats, cruise control, a CD-DVD changer and an exclusive twin-tone leather upholstery in Black with Crema or Black with Titanium Blue.

Yours for Euro 173,241 including 19 per cent VAT in Germany for the coupe and 184,546 Euro including VAT for the cabrio. Look after the jump for a few very hi-res photos – they’re a few MB each! There’s also a video if you’re interested.

    Looks aside, I think this car is brilliant with its hi-tech machinery performance-wise. The Audi R8 V10, and the Nissan GT-R or even the BMW M3 Coupe is still very much a direct Porsche 911 rival – in just any kind of form.

    I just wish Porsche would make something more desirable or bespoke for this model by extend its tail with a 959 badge at the rear. That would make an interesting proposition to a Mercedes SLS AMG, LP560-4 Gallardo or Ferrari’s yummy 458-Italia. It will do wonders to the brand, I mean come on Porsche!

    Lovely interior by the way.

    well …. in malaysia we just need to pay road tax ,insurance , some tolls , and of course the high price of cars… but in europe, their tax and insurance's premium is very2 high, sometimes higher than the value of the car itself (in the used car market ) , also, they have to pay congestion charges and bla bla bla, fuel tax, some other taxes…. and europeans can't afford to eat outside as much as we do….

    Malaysians keep forgetting that we are a developing country NOT an advanced economic country
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Imf-advanced-un…

    thats y imported cars are expensive, brings money to the gov & country, and (yeah…obviously) 'forces' us to buy local made car…to boost our economy…

    TADA~

  • Ned,

    agree with you. Porsche should have a successor to the great 959 to compete with today's top line Ferraris and Lamborghinis. longer than the 911 and also wider. it should be a bigger capacity engine to compete. so far, the carrera GT was the closest but that too is no longer available already.

  • So cheap in Germany? Maybe dollar-for-dollar if you are earning Euros. Even then its still expensive for many folks over there. If you convert, its still like MYR850,000 here before taxes are imposed. Still not exactly cheap but a good car nontheless, especially the interior.

    Yup, it's sad to see the demise of the 959.. it was truly,a real legend back then.

    I miss the Carrera GT. Went to the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart to get a 1:18 scale, but it was sold out. Sigh.
